Home Distiller

There is no way on God's Green Earth I would have let a woman shut down my plans! Kudo's to you for keeping it together, but there would have been words and she would have went to her Mother's for the weekend. Or at least until I ran the wash. Well, everyone is entitled to their opinion. When we go...

Yeah, but mine has a laser

Help me Obiwan, you're my only hope!

I just did a test run with this little white R2D2 looking piece of crap. lmfao You got to admit. That's funny shite right thar. :lol: Now I don't get it. Your wife put the brakes on a good still that would make a good drop. But she is fine with the R2D2 piece o shite that makes crap? Yeah, she's no...

No, no, no, I showed my ass and was wrong, and admitted it.

laughing at the wording, not the situation.. relax... it was funny i started on an air still rig and still use it for some of my projects.. I call mine "beakly" Sorry, I guess I'm a little touchy when it comes to this. I spent a bunch of money and time to build my original rig that I neve...

You know, You're an asshole. I'm limited in what I can get away with, but am at least trying, and all you can input is that you're laughing at me.

PLEASE, before anyone flames me, I just had the most awesome experience with a water distiller, one of the major Taiwanese ones. My story: I built a good still, 2" diameter 36 inch tall column.......the one on moonshine-still dot whatever. 15 gal ss boiling pot, awesome burner, the BIG banjo bu...

i got a pot still, i want to make sugar washes for a nuetral spirit. i want to get into flavoring my own stuff. so i was just woundering about yeast. so if i use distillers do i still need to use lemons or past? or is that just for bakers?? I may be mistaken, but I don't think you're going to get m...

@ vdefazzio, If you have problems with the tubing splitting suggest annealing the area you are attempting to flare or expand. Annealing the area will help in preventing splitting. Also ensuring that there are not any stress riser burrs in the area that you are attempting to flare or expand. The Big...

I realise this is an easy way to do it, but you really don't want that much brass in the product flow. At worst, you could expand some copper tube, even at 1/4", and do a better thing. Good to know you have seen new(bie)s ideas smashed. You wont take offence then. Very nice coil bloke. Hang in...

@ vdefazzio, Welcome to the Forum. Nice looking Coil. Out of curiosity why did you use brass compression elbows instead of copper sweat elbows on your cooling coils? Using both 3/8 lines instead of ¼ would be better. With 3/8 lines and 3/8 Needle Valves you will be able to fine-tune both the Reflux...

Nice coil :thumbup: Not sure why you wish to run them independently though - I would join the tails and run them in parallel, 2 ins together and 2 outs together. I have heard some bad reports of the 1/4" tube for the output line. I would increase them both just to err on the side of caution. A...

As I near completion of my first build of a Valved Reflux Column still, based on http://moonshine-still.com/valved-reflux-still-head/, pretty much spec on to that design. My concern is whether my relux and output tubing is large enough of a diameter to not overflow the nipple below the condenser. Wh...
