Slainte from Ireland

Post by Orcaborks »

Hi Guys,

Greetings from Ireland. Just about to build my first reflux still, after spending the last few weeks researching and browsing the forums and parent site, I would like to thank you guys for putting together such an amazing resource! If anyone can point me towards a complete set of plans for a reflux still I would be very grateful.

Kind regards

Anne

Greetings, Orcaborks...

Quite often we see members coming here looking for "plans"... You don't need plans... What you need is an understanding of exactly how a specific still type works and why... Then you can adapt those theories to fit whatever acceptable materials you can access to... No need for measurement by measurement plans... Peruse all of the different still type builds and make your build plan from there... If you need it reviewed before building, that's what we're here for...

Good luck, stay safe, and enjoy the journey...
