I recently bought a turbo 500 still and i get about 3.5 liters at 93-94 percent every time but i find it hard to regulate the temperature.I have a well so every time the pump kicks on or off it throws the temperature all out of whack and I have to constantly monitor and adjust the flow of water.
I previously had a still spirits super reflux condensor and never had any problems with temperature.It always ran between 75-80 deg c and I got about 3 liters at about 80 percent with no adjustments.
Just thought I'd see if anyone had this problem or had any suggestions.
Thanks,lock.

you can use a water regulator used on RVs.I use one from a boiler.

Welcome to the forum, I am also on a well but I put my water in a large plastic garbage can and use a pump to recycle it through.

. Hooked up a 12 psi water regulator for a boiler and it fixed the problem 100 percent. Thanks alot for the advice.Dnderhead wrote:you can use a water regulator used on RVs.I use one from a boiler.
