Got two tanks that need cooling at the same time? The BrewChill Pro 5500-2 is a glycol chiller that ships with two 80 gallon per hour vane pumps installed from the factory, so there is no second unit to buy and no pump upgrade to add later. Both pumps run off one shared thermostat, which means one setpoint across both tanks rather than two independent temperatures, a good fit when a pair of fermenters or a fermenter and a bright tank need to hold the same temperature at once.
At 5,500 BTU per hour, it holds fermenters and bright tanks up to 1,000 liters combined, backed by an 18 gallon reservoir. Breweries expanding past their first couple of fermenters land on this model when they need to cool two tanks on the same schedule without buying a second chiller and the same setup works for wineries or cideries running two tanks through the same fermentation stage side by side.
Key Features:
- Two-pump cooling standard: Two 80 gal/hr vane pumps on separate 1/3 HP motors - no upgrade needed to run glycol to two tanks at once, both held to the same setpoint.
- 5,500 BTU/h capacity: Built for USA craft breweries and small-batch producers running fermenters and bright tanks up to 1,000 liters.
- Low-noise compressor: A 1/2 HP compressor and R290 refrigerant keep cooling strong without excess noise or power draw.
- Sized for tight spaces: Fits microbreweries, taprooms, and serious homebrew setups without eating floor space.
- Quick install: 3/4"NPT fittings, 6-ft power cord, NEMA 5-20P plug for straightforward setup of this brewery equipment in a new or existing USA system.
- 450-ft glycol line reach: Flexibility to place tanks and chiller wherever your facility layout works best.
- 18-gallon tank, two pre-installed pumps: Built for continuous, high-demand brewing operations.

- 1 × BrewChill Pro 5500 (80 GPH pump, 1/3 HP motor)
