Old thread but I have to commend this utterly shitkicking build.

Absolute awesome and completely awestruck build. But one question...

Is there any reason to fear a pressure build up, or even worse case... explosion?
Safety is always #1. Without it you wouldn't be around to enjoy the hobby.
No matter how much of an expert you are, there is always someone better. Listen to their words.
Listen. Understand. Repeat.

never happen....I installed a water column relief tube on the side of the boiler.. a safety relief that uses a water seal. If something ever did get plugged the pressure would be relieved at this point....As well I never operate my still with out 100% observation....May sound crazy but I ended up giving this still to one of my friends and getting him set up so he could enjoy the fine art of distilling as well.. :thumbup: ..My current column I use is attached..I'm going to stick with this one for a while....I have some goodies coming as well. I am currently fabricating a steam boiler that will be used to heat the wash. The center heat tube I have in the boiler now will be changed over to a steam chamber...I'll post some pictures when I get around to doing the conversion....
