When fitting a garden tap, there must be an anti syphon device fitted so that there is no chance of anything from the garden getting into the water supply.

Good luck with your build.


Thank you for your input. Fortunately my garden tap has an anti syphon device built in so no worries John.

Electrics sorted today Image and just a couple of hours in the morning to finish the insulation. :) Then the plumbing and shelving, It should be finished next week if no problems arise Image

Almost finished, should be up and running next week, I've had a tummy bug for the past few days. Image
The drain tap got itself blocked with those tiny ceramic saddles, so I'm going to fit a new 1/2" tap. I have to file/drill to make the new tap fit though Image

As you can see I have insulated Brewhouse but work is ongoing but I'm nearly done. Just have to sort out the rest of the plumbing.

Still waiting for my SPP's from Odin. Ordered em 10 weeks ago so I emailed iStill for an update, auto response email says they are in the USA. Image So much for customer care. In the meantime I have tried vino-tinto's idea of packing the T500 with one copper scrubber and the rest with stainless steel scrubbers. From a 25 litre wash I discarded the first 250 ml (after a 20 min reflux) my total spirit takeoff was around 2.5 litres at 93%.
Question ? How much good stuff should one expect from a 25 litre wash? ???
