Keeping packing in a Boka

Im new to distilling and just purchased a 2" Boka. Tonight I gave it a vinegar rinse but when I did so the stainless scrubber packing fell out. Now how do I go about keeping it in there? Bit concerned that when doing the vinegar run (in next few days) if the packing falls inside the keg boiler ...

Re: This look any good?

I tried previously and stuffed it...Twice lol.
I think if I can't find anything for sale soon I might try and build an old valved reflux.

Re: Is this ok?

That would be great mate if you wouldn't mind.
I would need the tails out the top cap though as i have already drilled the holes for them.
I will shoot you a PM anyway and we can work out the details...Cheers...

Re: Is this ok?

Ruined the coil & wasted $30 odd dollars.
Anyone want to make me a double coil to suit a 2" condensor pipe?

Re: Is this ok?

Thanks guys, after reading the forum all night I see what you are saying. I have decided to build the "Bokabob cup" still as it looks like a simple design that I can throw together myself. And I will be using a keg boiler for this too as I have a 60L fermenter so this way I could do a 40L ...
