Greetings, racerx...

Can you give us a bit more background...??? What brought you to this site...??? Are you entirely new to home distillation or do you have some previous experience...??? What types of spirits are you looking to make...??? Do you have a still or planning on building or buying...??? What type(s) of spirits are you looking to make...??? Stuff like that...

Good luck...

Lots a Gents just fill the thumper enough to cover the inlet. I charge mine just a bit more.

The thumper on my Frankenstill is about the same size, I usually put one litre, just enough to cover the inlet bar.
