Grainfather Pot Still

Like it looks the bizz.
If thats a grainfather it has 2 boiler settings
I think. And is that the same lid as a T500 ?
If so could you adapt SD pot fittings condensers
etc ?
What size 2"?

Yeah it's the T500 lid, StillDragon sell a 2" tri-clamp weldless fitting that screws into the hole in the T500 lid to enable 2" tri-clamp fittings to be connected.

The GF boiler has two elements 2kw and 500w, I'm going to test it stripping a wash at 2kw, Ive only used a 150mm long dephlagmator as the product condensor and I'm not sure its big enough to fully condense the output at 2kw, if not I'll use the proper, longer product Condensor or my power controller to limit the power to maybe 1500w.

I look at those Crystal dragons etc on SD
and dribble. Am wondering B4 I get carried
away what benifit or main diff is it
control ability?
You mentioned a power controller? Is this
something you have made Anavrin ?

It seems the postimage website is down for now, that's not good for this forum as it's the default pic uploader!

My power controller is made by United Automation, it's this one

They are expensive compared to the DIY builds people make but I can't fault it, it's worked flawlessly for 4-5 years

Thanks putting one of those on my shopping list

87 pounds?!?! Wow, that's pricey for only 25amps. I got the 40amp DIY from SD and it's been working excellent for 7-8 years now.
Definitely cheaper alternatives.

I think mine was cheaper, but don't wish to split hairs.
