bloody builders.......
Many months ago, "erindoors" decides she wants the kitchen extended.
Well I can't really say no can I.....
I've sort of had it in mind that I'll need to relocate the still to the shed but jury rig a water supply with a small pump and a couple of drums.
Yet having been rather busy of late, the old outhouse bit is now in the skip, small machinery and materials litter the drive and back lawn and I've still got to get my finger out and get the temp water supply sorted.....
Got enough spirit made to be getting on with but she's taken over the damn shed too. Gonna have to move some stuff round so I can set up once I've got the pump and water drums.....
I'm likely gonna use rain water for the condenser as I can put a couple of capfuls of bleach or something to stop it going manky green. As to whether I can get away with just a pump and 2 drums for a whole run or whether I'm gonna have to think of some sort of chiller i.e. drum of water for supply, pump to condenser in, drum for condenser out and then some sort of chiller and maybe another pump between condenser out and condenser supply drum to make the water circuit.......
What a bloody inconvenience this all is........
Anyone who might have any ideas or experience of this kind of arrangement

Re: bloody builders.......
Well, we did a major renovation a couple of years ago and I strongly recommend not renovating!
Not much help for your current situation.
