That is tidy work by 30sx Shady …. Thanks for the link .

What I like is that the relative proportions of 30sx seem to be pretty darn close to your own coiled dephleg dimensions . :thumbup:

Horses for courses . Are we using that Dephleg on a 4” plated still where there are a few plates used for a whiskey or Rum …. Curca 2500kw - 3000kw under it .

OR ….. are we using it on a 4” packed column with maybe double or triple the power up it’s clacker to make a Neutral .

I have always felt overall , Otis's dual coil might be more suited to a 4” packed column where extra knockdown power might be required …… mind you , Otis has a lot of flexibility with both coils independent . :thumbup:

+1 on Otis's dual coil. :thumbup:
My coils are sized for a 4" packed column. The water flow can be turned down enough to work with bubble cap plates, but it would be better to have half as many turns.
