looking for imput

Post by tryingitout »

Ok I took your advise and decided not to buy an Easy Still. I have been reading post after post and the parent site, still not sure what still to build yet. But as it is I can't build one at this time anyway arm in a cast for 7 more week, so I have plenty of time to plan. I would like to build a Pot Still column and a Refux and use the same boiler, so at least I have that figured out. What design do you recomend in the Refux column? Mabey something easy to run, building it should not be to much of a problem. I am in construction and have learned alot of the tricks of all the trades through out the years. I already have some 1.5" and 2" and I even have about a 2' piece of 4" copper. Look forward to getting all of your imputs.

Thanks

If you plan on having a separate pot still head (good plan too) and if you aren't scared of construction, I'd say build a VM column.
