Hello Distillers,
Hoping to seek some assistance and if my mad idea to raise the ABV percentage with 2 w inch bubbler plates, however I suspect I know the issue but before taking further action seeing if anyone else has some feedback, idea's or its just not possible 8-} .
As shown in first picture when running in single plate the T500 Reflux condenser is overloading the plate, no luck with temp to make any meaningful difference. I suspect the issue is with the single bubbler and the plate holes not allowing enough to drain, I also have another second plate I can run but yet to try as suspect same issue.
Looking at other single bubbler plate setup many have a single larger hole on one side which I suspect may fix the issue and allow the second plate to run as well.
Or
Would separating the water line to have better control and temp,
I suspect the plate is not allowing the drain and causes it to puke out all at once. Great for stripping but want to fix this for final run.
Any idea suggestion or wrong setup to try for bubbler and either run as sight glass only or pack with more media to increase column length ?
Some other photo of plate and only other item changed was added the refractory copper for packing as shown.
Any ideas or suggestion great full
Thanks :-D
