Moving them from the hottest part of the house to a old fridge turned to the coldest setting once a week really helps mimic the natural expansion and contraction of the wood.

Little late on this one but I don't recommend nothin smaller than 1/2 the size.You can put 2 gallons in a 5 gal container but ya cant put 5 gal in a 2 gal container.

Re: Illegal Still States
If the still is rendered down to the point that it cant and wont function then it is only an historical art piece.If the cap is soldered solid the worm is soldered shut
then it is a non functioning piece.

A couple of fellas have beat prosecution because they had parts.A worm can be used for heat exchange in a wood burner to heat your water.
Like keg jam stated a liebig could and I do believe would be a problem kegs can and are used in aging wine in.And a big ol pot is used for doing all grain beer.

I put 10 gal in boiler at 12% then added the other gallon of 12% plus 2 gal of feints to thumper not sure what % the feints were.
