Hi are these same as an airstill eBay number 112548190502 they look like they are if so they are Alot cheaper than an airstill for doing gin.

You get what you pay for in this world chap, looks to be a knock off and is being shipped from China.
The listing states it is CE marked, but it has the wrong plug on it for starters...
Do a google for CE mark or China export mark...

One smart post there Maker.
Respect to you.

Its an easy spot. They look like a copy. The stainless is shiney (normally brushed) and the lid is wrong.

Thats not to say it won't work. But what about spares?

I would buy a pre-owned 'pukker' one.

Ok will look for another second hand one.

I think also that the water thingys are a higher
wattage so not good for us.
AS is 500w ?? Water purifier 750w.

Why??? run through a controller, dial in whatever heat you want to run it.

True too true but not by design. We throw away the rule book
and do our thing. Those that dont know cant do that Ice.

If you put a controller on 'em, they need bi-wiring too. The fan needs full power.

I thought airstill were 320w and the pretenders were 500w.

You are probably correct mate. I was just trying to illustrate
a point.

I have to say I quite fancy a fiddle with a high power one, but not unless it is Dick Turpin money.

From someone forced down that route, I humbly suggest larger volume over more power.

Robert.

Didn't know you could get a higher volume AS, Is it just an AS head on a larger pot.

No - I think the point it slower is better.

The AS is a balance. A bigger pot would produce would produce too much too soon and overpower the condenser.

Sooooo to follow your lead ED, I have a controller I might run a standard AS slower for gin...
