Maxx Counterflow Wort Chiller
Description
The Exchilerator Maxx 2.0 builds upon over 10 years of innovation in the brewing industry. Designed for brewers who demand efficiency without sacrificing quality, the Maxx 2.0 features our revolutionary ‘Exvoluted’ shell design. This exclusive helical spiral wraps around the inner tubing to create water turbulence in the outer shell. This keeps the inner coil smooth and achieves chilling efficiency that rivals even the most convoluted designs—without their usual drawbacks.

- Handle With Comfort: Thanks to the innovative outer wrap, the Maxx 2.0 stays only warm to the touch, ensuring you can adjust or move your chiller safely mid-use.
- Hassle-Free Connections On The Floor: The uniquely designed 45-degree lifted bottom port eradicates the usual struggle of connecting hoses, setting a new standard for convenience.
- Rock-Solid Stability: Three robust legs, each ready for easy mounting, provide the stability you need with the versatility you desire.
- Fitting Flexibility: With male 1/2″ NPT on all ports, customize to your heart’s content. Whether it’s garden hoses for the casual brewer or TC adapters for the technical enthusiast, adaptability is key. TC models boast professionally attached TCs to wort ports, ensuring compatibility without compromise.
- Front-Facing Functionality: All ports are strategically placed at the front for straightforward connectivity. Adjustable water ports pivot for those extra additions, ensuring nothing hinders your brew process.
- Signature Look: Its exclusive red shell isn’t just visually striking – it’s the hallmark of an Exchilerator chiller.
- Simplified Cleaning and Sanitizing: Its design emphasizes ease of maintenance, ensuring that it’s easy to clean and sanatize. In fact for the most part you can just rinse it clean with hot water after your done chilling.
- Clog-Resistant Design for Hop-Heavy Brews: Boasts an exceptional resistance to clogging, providing reliable performance even when brewing hop-intensive beers.
- Gentle on Surfaces: Soft rubber feet mean no scratches or marks on your brewhouse surfaces.
- Efficient Design: Don’t let its size fool you. With 25′ of 3/8 OD x 1/4 ID copper, the Maxx 2.0 packs a punch in chilling efficiency.
- 5 Year Warranty: Protects your investment against any manufacturing defects.

directions are lacking – you need to find the youtube video of a gentlemen showing you how to assemble it. Im thinking i should have purchased the copper. However the Stainless Steel option still performs very well. It does a great job
Chiller works pretty well. Chilled wort to 72. Takes a god awful amount of water to chill 3.5 gal. batch; enough to water my lawn. Annoyed there were no assembly instructions; had to go watch a youtube 3rd party video for that. Annoyed that all the needed parts weren’t included in the brew ready” kit. Had to make an extra trip and expense to the homebrew shop to get and extra M to M nipple.
Great build quality. Cooling seemed efficient and cleanup was super easy. 1/2″NPT fittings for the cold-water side are a little strange, given that most will probably hook this up to a garden hose. I was able to pick up a pair of adapters to fit a garden hose fairly cheap.
Hi James, Glad you are enjoying your chiller and thank you so much for the great review! I just wanted to add some context to this that the ‘Basic’ model comes with just the chiller without fittings, the NPT allows you to easily integrate it into any brew setting, for example we have our water on the wall with quick disconnects. The Ready To Brew option comes with everything you need to start using the unit out of the box (including the NPT to garden hose adapters). Thanks again for your business, we greatly appreciate it!
Better then expected!!! I love how quick it cools down my wort.
High quality, works amazing. Wish it had simple mounting brackets even if in the box as option. There’s plenty of options though to mount myself and not difficult. Recommend to all, works that well.
Thanks for the review Steve! If you remove the rubber ‘slippers’ (what we call them) there are holes for you to mount into a wood or metal surface. We also offer our chiller mount if you have a table or sink leg you would like to mount it to and keep it off the floor.
