building a half keg pot still
Posted: Fri Mar 16, 2012 2:10 pm
hi guys, ok so im building a simple pot still, so far i have
sankey half keg
SS clamp and SS 2 inch threaded flange
one 2 inch female copper adapter
five feet of 2 inch copper pipe cut into 3 sections 36 inch, 16 inch, and 8 inch
one 90 degree 2 inch elbow
one 45 degree 2 inch elbow
one 2 inch to half inch reducer
two pieces of half inch copper refrigerant tubing, a 10 foot coil and a 12 foot coil
masterbuilt mb10 or mb15 (not sure) outdoor fish fryer. it is a type 1 and is adjustable (5psi)
im looking for some input from some of the more experienced guys, my 3 main concerns are is my column too tall? and should i use some packing of some sort in the column? and if my burner is adequate? now if i can figure out how to put some pictures up
well i cant get the pictures up, they are not the proper size or some such crap.
i was going to put the 36 inch pipe straight up off the keg, to the 45, then the 16 inch, then the 90, and the 8 inch, reducer to the worm. so what do you think?
