In the background you can see the
paint bucket I used to coil it around. |
Bought a 15 meter long glowed copper pipe with diameter 3/8" (9.5 mm) and thickness 0.8 mm. It was already coiled up, so it was easy to gently force it into the right shape using a bucket of paint. One of the ends was then pulled up through the middle.
Since 3/8" isn't really a standard size for pipes used for pluming in Norway. I used a 12 mm copper pipe and soldered it on. Then I could easily connect a 90 degree compression coupling, and then some normal fittings to connect the garden hose.

Since glowed copper is really soft, I attached a copper string to the bottom ring of the coil, to be used when lifting it into the boiling pot.
