THE GOAL:
To make good whiskey. Faster than my current 2" pot set up.
SPECS:
50 litre SS keg boiler, gas fired. 3 ring china burner, with adjustable regulator, gauge in Kpa.
4" diameter column, 5 plates, 33 (ish) inches high.
Deflagmater- 6 (ish) inches long. 7 x 3/4" tubes.
Condensor- Not compleatly sure yet. Probably graham style, possibly worm and bucket.
OTHER:
If current talk/experiments with plate isolation plumbing work out for neutral production, this may also be added (if only I can catch up with the theory before I finnish it
)
Most of it will be made from re-claimed copper, exept the column itself. If you see green vertigree, dont sweat, it will all be etched off.
I am not sure of upload limits on the site, pics ok so far, but pdf's are not my talent. Can email pics if you want better ones.
Multiple posts can be expected
Late night posts will probably have terrible spelling.
Got a few ideas in mind, more than likley, I'll be getting ahead of myself. You will see them when I get that far along.I'm sure you'll see places i'm going wrong., things I've forgotten, or didn't know.
Anyway, heres progress so far.
