NEED STEAM GENERATOR

[B-RAD 22]

Hello,

I am hoping someone can help me. I am starting a distillery and will be going with a 500L (130 gallon) steam pot still, I am wanting to know if someone can point me in the way to get an affordable steam boiler. Here are my parameters:

- 500L (130 gallon) pot still

- Furnace oil or Diesel only (natural gas not available)

- looking for close loop system 

- I live in Canada, don't mind ordering from the US if needed

I did some looking around and I am hoping something like this is what I can get:

Looking forward to any advise you can give me. 

 

Thanks,

Brad

B-Rad,

For a 1 hour heat up to operating temp time the rule of thumb is 1,000 BTUs of low pressure steam boiler output per gallon of mash in the still.
