Milk Can Still

Post by purduebrew »

I have an 8 Gallon Milk Can Still from Mile Hi with a 2" Reflux Tower. Since the tower is removable I'm considering making a dedicated Pot Still Attachment. As the parts are readily available to build a small tower off the Milk can and then go to a coil design into a thumper. I was wondering if any one had any suggestions or recommendations? If anybody has done this already any pictures might be helpful.

Here is the kit to adapt the Milk can to the copper top: http://www.milehidistilling.com/Stainle ... /16608.htm" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false;" rel="nofollow

If you want that copper treaded adapter i've got it. Found 2 of them at the scrapyard, New. St Pats has the rest of the stuff for cheaper than mile high. Tater

Tater i would love the Copper Threaded Adapter. How much do you want for it. Also do you have a website address for St. Pats?

If your milk can is like mine, it has a 2 inch thread already welded on top. Just sweat fit a female conector to a piece of 2 inch copper and pick and choose parts till you have your condenser hooked on.
