A little bit more detail, two weeks ago while walking through an unnamed hardware store and came across a T500 starter kit. I thought damn what a great idea. :handgestures-thumbupleft:
So i started researching quality and price differences among online stores and bricks and mortar stores locally. This is when i stumbled across this forum so now Id rather build than buy (im a sparkie by trade and love side projects) I'm open to ideas, but as mentioned before my plan at this stage is to utilise a stainless steel keg, easy flange 2" then a 3" to 2" reducer , a 60 " 3" Boka with a double wound condenser, I'm considering having the top of the reflux column threaded to allow for cleaning and removing the packing etc.
I have seen numerous plans in these forums.
4 stupid questions tho cause I'm going crazy Please..
All the guides I have seen relate to building a Bokakob still, but for the life of me i cant find a guide on operating one.. Is there a guide to prevent myself from blowing up the shed??
2" TriClamps? i have found them on Ebay from China, but they look pretty dodgy, Is there a source readily available within Australia that does mail order?
Copper mesh supplier for packing?
My aim is quality Bourbon and Scotch that I can enjoy with my friends is it better for a noob with too much time and money create a bokakob reflux still ( i read that with the packing removed they can run as a pot still as well) or a completely different design.
On a separate note If anyone needs an electrician in Country SA to wire up a couple of heater elements just send me a PM.
Cheers guys and Gals.
