You better make sure the mrs ain't looking for a hitman 
Now hurry up and get it done. So we can hear the results already. 
Did you intend to post this here? And why? Not real sure how it applys to this thread?Infinitebrainspace wrote:I have a 20gal ss still but I only fill it to 15gal... electric using the biggest 110v element Home Depot had (2000w I think) need a 20Amp circuit to run it, and not less than 10 guage wire. BE SURE NOT TO HAVE ANY SOLIDS in your pot!!!!
if you do, the element will burn out fast. (this from experience btw) . Strain your beer thouroughly before putting it into the pot. It will take about 2 - 2.5 hours to heat if not insulated, and about half that time if you inslulate the crap
out of it. Mine is insulated sides and top with r12 water heater insulation. I'm using a boiler thermostat to control the temp, but unless you can find a used one, they are very expensive. I mounted thermometers at the element level,
10 gallon level, and one at the base of the column (since I am new at this, I want to see what the temps are at the different points for future reference).
You can use 2 of these elements if you run 220v (one on each leg of the 220) and still use 10 gua wire with 20A,
or you could use a 4000w 220 element, but I dont know what the wire size / amp rating would have to be.
I think the 4000w element would get too hot, and may burn your beer.
so numbers should go up after and hour of reflux!!!! so here you go!!!! 
Let me just say, that is fucking epic!ProChargedHarley03 wrote:Just wanted to hear some feed back on this build. If anyone has built a still like this and have some good tips?????? That would help
that would be great!!!!
and I hope it performs as good as it looks. Im sure that "Jekyll & Hyde" will provide you years and years of quality spirit (that is if you stop modifying it every other run ). Keep up the good work and will continue to look forward to hear about your results. I ran it as a pot still today!!! worked like a top!!!!
