CROW-EATER'S valved reflux still
Posted: Mon Jun 15, 2015 12:22 am
It has been sitting in the shed for a few years now, but I finally got my a$$ into gear and fired it up on water last night.
here's some pictures of the built still
just a bog stock Rheem 30 ltr catering ern I've used some cotton sash cord rope to seal the lid to the boiler, it fits in snug between the two stainless lips. I might wind up another coil to fit inside this one, I'll run a few more tests on water once I've got my heating element controller set up and see if I really need to improve its cooling capacity. pretty bare bones basic thermometer but it seals just fine and dose the job nicely
I couldn't have done it without this forum and the parent site ... Cheers
