Coil in bucket vs Liebig condenser

Post by Iulistoi »

I have a coil in bucket condenser now that can condense up to 7-8 liters of spirit per hour. The coil is made of 4 m copper pipe of 22 mm diameter (between 3/4 and 1 inch) in a 65 liters (17 US gallons) bucket.

I plan to build a Liebig condenser of 3/4 in 1" with the jacketed length of 1.5 meters (5 feet).

Do you think that the liebig will be more efficient than the coil in bucket?

When I say "efficiency" I mean the following:
1. The amount of vapor condensed and the volume of spirit colected per hour.
2. Temperature of the spirit.
3. Water consumed.
4. Output water temperature.
