I guess this could go into the "In the shed' thread too ...
Behold my crappy metal skillzzz
It's gonna be insulated so doesn't matter what it looks like
water and vinegar cleaning runs have produced no leaks - wine cask to go thru it today then back into the real stuff.
So, now that i can run it detuned a bit less concern for plastic - do i leave the coil not hooked up to cooling at all for stripping runs?
Would much heat escape from the open pipe there? Or should i still hook up cooling (i use separate cooling lines for coil and condenser) and have just a tiny bit flowing?
Or maybe plug the pipes ?
cheers
