Jim, and John
I just wanted to put my two cents in. Some of you I Probably talked to about this, but I just wanted to say it again.
I am currently starting a new manufacturing business making stills and still components made in the United States not China. One of them I'm working on is my continuous still that is currently a prototype right now, But I do use it for my own distillery. It can process 3/8 of a gallon per minute and I'm working on to increase it to 1/2 of a gallon per minute processing. My output is easily 80 to 85%. Although it does not take out forshot, heads, body, and tails, I use it for stripping only.
It is the cats pajamas!
