In Sweden you can find terracotta wine coolers that leaks! It is the evaporation on the outside that cools the wine. They are not glazed and works in this setup.

Hiya Magnus,
I think Mikael just came up with a great idea! You'll have to tell him that I absolutely love it! His results are beautiful!
Thanks so much for the clarification on the pipes and the wine chillers! That's helps a lot!!! So what I am looking to find or have made is just unglazed terracotta. . .hmmmm,

.
It's sooo cool that you've started one too! I would love love love to see photos and to hear about how it's working for you.
Are you trying one of the terracotta drainage pipes then?
Are you finding that he unglazed terracotta seaps moisture to the outside, in the just right quantity?
Do tell. . .
