Because when the cooled wort returns to the kettle, it's heated up again by the thermal mass of the wort in the kettle & you have to cool it all over again. Sorry, I'm half awake, so if I missed something in there I blame it on Spider. Cause it's easy.

That depends, how many nights per month constitute the line between sleepovers & living here? :lol:
