You can either run cold water direct from the faucet, or like you said, have a recirculating pump with a large bucket containing ice. The large bucket / recirculating pump idea works very well, just drain out half the water volume when you add the large quantities of ice, it keeps you condensor very cool.

A technical solution?

Why didn't you say so, all you need is a small refridgerator.

Drill two holes in the outer shell.

Bend up some copper tubing, into a fairly large coil.

Now affix this large copper coil into you small refridgerator, with both ends of the tube sticking up through your previously made holes.

Attatch the recirculating pump to one side of the coil and your return/feed lines appropriately. Then turn the temp to the coldest the refridgerator/freezer will allow.



Or you could just use the whole apparatus from the previous post, put that inside and run the feed/return lines.

Quite frankly, using ice is the simplest way, well, other than using the direct feed from your tap/faucet, which should be cold enough. ( atleast in these parts it is )

Seems like a lot of unnecessary work at the risk of crimping copper tubing on the refrigerator!

Well quite frankly, vinyl tubing could also be utilized.

My point was that, a recirculator with a resivor, or direct cold tap water was the most easily adaptable method.
