Thumper Heat

[M_Wag13]

When using a thumper should there be another heat sorce for the thumper or are the vapors coming from the still enough heat? I'm thinking about adding a thumper just have a few questions about them. Also using a thumper I have read that you can flavor your spirts by adding flavor in the thumper, can some one explain that to me too? All help is thankful for.

The vapors heat it, you dont need a secondary heat source. Also adding flavoring into the thumper will carry over in the final product, it basicly happens when the first vapor condenses into the thumper and is mixed with the flavors. Then when the liquid turns to vapor again, it carrys the flavor with it to the condenser and out the end for your collection.

With the flavoring in the thumper would u put fresh juice of whatever flavor your trying to get. Or would u use a juice/water mixture?
