as we have found out once right way up give a damn good tapping up and down the column but particularly at the top to drop the copper and ceramic saddles down and cler the top coil I use an old wooden spoon as the 'hammer'

This space seems to make a huge difference to the speed and efficiency of the spirit production

Although many don't bother a parrot and hydrometer is usefull as to when to cut at the end of the run I find when you hit 90% youre into the tails but Taste and experience will confirm this

But I am sure that some of them do sometimes fall out.

To reduce surge boiling, people have been known to put the ceramic rings in the boiler deliberately. One or two more wont be a problem.

I also took your advice and ordered that regulator as well, so at the moment I'm a happy bunny, that is, until SWMBO finds out. ;D ;D ;D

The only thing I would recommend is get a water pressure reducing valve to control the flow unless you want to either a. only run when no one else is in the house or b. get very frustrated every time SWMBO starts running the dishwasher or washing machine or flushes the toilet good luck with trying to keep the temp constant. I got this one offov fleebay 280917244423 cheap enough and has been a god send

Happy stilling

The only mod Still Spirits show is the one to the tap fixing screw, even their videos are old hat.

There are lots of suppliers, but only one in Norfolk, but I'm not really interested getting one from there, who gives the best service, YOU decide !!
