What don't you like about your immersion chiller?

I'd go counterflow over plate, but that's personal preference. I've seen the iside of those plates and they look gnarly to keep clean.

it is bulky and just isnt great. really i like building buying new things and i have had this forever. in the summer months it just isnt very efficient. I mean i could recirc cooler water or pre chill but that just doesnt sound as fun as building a parallel counterflow mounted to my brew stand.

ETA: it is an old jockey box coil a distributor gave to me 15 years ago. i still have 2 more sitting in my garage. Im going to use one in a HERMS i believe.

For those that do BIAB electric systems, do you lose versatility to perform certain functions? Does efficiency take a hit? Do you sparge in those things or is it a different process?
