I did not mix in the 250 ml foreshots, or the 500 Ml of what I thought was heads nor did I mix the first two 600 mason jars. So basically I did not mix in the first 2000 ml. I would have thought after taking and not using 2000 mils of the front that I would be into the hearts. I only mixed the mason...

I really could use a little help if possible. I built a pot still for stripping runs and a 5 foot 2" boka bob which is fully insulated. Used copper scrubber's, stainless steel take off valve. Ran a vinegar run then a cleaning run with wines and left over booze. Worked like a charm. I used Bird ...

Perfect just what I wanted to hear. Thanks for all your help. QofH

Quick question. I have looked through the whole plastic debate but cannot seem to find the answer. I want to make Vodka. I built the Boka, then a built a pot still to do my stripping. I made a 100 Liter wash of Birdwatcher in two 50 liter batches in food grade plastic. It came out beautifully. I rac...

Thank-you guys for your answer to my question. Obviously you all know way more than I know. I hope you don't mind me asking this question. :idea: In the links that Larry posted there is a diagram by Samohon » Wed Jan 26, 2011 12:48 pm for a Nixon / Stone Offset Head. So if I built the same outfit, w...

A little help would be greatly appreciated. I have built my 2" slant plate column, built a water cooler using a 100 gal container, with a sump pump. Ran it with the vinegar run, worked like a champ, then did a cleaning run also worked great. Then I just finished making up a 100 L bird watcher's...

Thanks guys, I appreciate your help and I am sure I am going to need it again. Again I will post pictures of my still in the next few days and get a few comments before I really crank this baby up see how she weeps.

Hey, guys I need some help. My boca slant plate still is built, I am just in the process of finishing off the cooling section. I am very computer savvy but for some reason I am having real trouble navigating this site. I made notes and saved posts and views on all the building section. I have read e...

Excellent. I just took two 8" stub outs, cut 2" inches off each one (giving me a total of 12" including the coupler. Cut a 1/4" hole at each end. Ran a 1/4" tube through, wrapped it with 12/2 copper wire and added 1/4" in-flow and out-flow stubs at each end on opposite ...

K, took care of that right off the bat.

Thanks, As a newbie I have a couple of question? I cannot tell you how much I am enjoying this and how much in the long run this is going to save me. So I see there is a place to make a donation which I want to do. My question who gets it the money is it the guy who started the site or the actual se...

I am new at this so I am not sure where to ask this question. But here I go. I like the idea of building the parrot onto the side of the column (Liquorice Stick) my question is: if the out put cup on the top is a 3/4" to 1 1/4" reducer (which is what I used) the actual stem of the parrot i...

Hi, Just getting started. New to this whole world. Started out by getting ready to build a world class home distillinag apparatus then started to do some more research. Six months later and after reading everything I could find and forgetting 90% of it I have decided to build a 2" boka reflux. ...
