Having been in the refrigeration business for 15+ years, I have found brazing with hard solder works better in the long run. It withstands vibrations and heat/cooling temperature varations better than silver solder and at less cost and time consumed to make the joint. To me, annealing of the copper lines have never been a problem just as long as I work the flame on the part that actually will need the solder. Once I heat the parts to temperature (not cherry red, just a slight glow) , the solder usually flows or gets sucked into the joint without any trouble or reheating. If you can do this,usually your joints will look factory perfect and pass inspection.
