Because at some point my aircooled product condensor was a bit too far away from my table, i added a length of 3/8" corrugated stainless steel pipe to get to the parrot.
During that run, I raised the heat and shut down the reflux to speed up the tails. As the condensed product temp was going up because of the speed, it was throwing off the abv measurements at the parrot. So i just aimed a table fan to the csst section and to my surprise, the product temperature quickly went down.
I am now giving it a shot with csst into an aircooled setup.
Currently building another shotgun reflux condensor using the csst instead of transmission cooler/radiator sections.

Csst for the aircooled crew
Shit I bought but shouldn't have :
1. Amazon 30L pot distiller
2. T-500 reflux column (good product but expensive)
3. Large 60L stock pot + 2" column
Now using 15.5gal KEG + 5500w electric + fully aircooled reflux condensor and product condenser.

Re: Csst for the aircooled crew
I will be following this closely. Im interested to see if the csst will work and if the surface area will be enough.
If in doubt leave it out.
