FijiSpirits Posted September 5, 2019 Share Posted September 5, 2019 Jeebers that thing is sexy. What’s the gallons per hour take off speed like? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BWFiggins Posted September 6, 2019 Author Share Posted September 6, 2019 Thank you! Hmmm, an exact flow rate figure depends on so many variables with this rig, as with all others: Pot still, or pot-and-column mode? Initial alcohol by volume of substrate? Number of plates in use? Pressure of steam? Desired proof of output? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
