New 3 inch Boka

Post by ChefSteve »

I made a 2" and now the new 3" is up. I made mine both of them with the slant plates or the lower in the coupler and just under the plate put the thrmo tube, this is the heart of it and could be changed to a pot still by taking out the coupler. the Coil is a full 20' and 13" long coil to coil. I have a stainless 3/8" ball valve for the take off and a 1/4" air coil to finish. I want to add a parrot to read as I go. please if anyone has +/- let me know but I'm running 1 pt. in 15min. now at 175 ABV at 60 degrees, I'll get better..........

No bent tab finger on the lower slant plate to center the overflowing reflux down the middle of the packing?

I like your idea of putting the slant plate in the coupler! Are you sealing it with flour paste?

Sorry this pic was taken before the overflow was installed I also have one in my 2" seems to work fine, the fitting of a new coupler to pipe is very snug no need of paste....Bokakob 1st drawing specs states not to sweat area bottom or top
