Hey Otis,

Glad to know you are happy with your results with the smartstill. Just so we can help you more -- what type of filter are you using? And what type of refractometer - ie w/w v/w etc?

Ciao.

Over the last few days ive been putting my first 5 gallon of wash though the smartstill and the results have been very good. Just tested all my bottles with the refractormeter and they are between 39% and 42%. The only problem I had was the filter, I could not get it to work right, it was very slow. It was taking 12 hour to do. Ive now replaced the thin washers with some rubber ones and it now seems about right, but not sure if rubber will be ok with the spirit. Next batch is now on and bubbling away.
Otis
