Heated thumper??

Post by distiller_dresden »

Anybody ever tried heating the thumper or looked into heating it? It occurred to me waiting for it to burble that I was waiting for it to heat up in order for my steam to get through the thumper so I could start seeing shine come out. Then it occurred to me that if the thumper, or liquid inside, was hot already when the steam hit it then the steam would sail right through and I would see shine that much quicker. I haven't seen anything about this in any books I have or any literature I've read; I searched these threads and didn't immediately see anyone talking about heating the thumper...

So, thoughts? Has anyone done it? Would there be benefits I'm rationalizing? Or are there drawbacks I'm not thinking of? Is there something more complex going on?
