Hi all,
Been dredging through bits of info here and there for a while, and while I get all the principals behind the materials, I was wondering if there were any distinct advantages to one material over the other (obviously will have copper in the vapour path in the way of bubble plates, which I'm guessing is plenty sufficient for it's purpose)?
Reason why I ask, if/when I eventually go down the path of upgrading to a bubbler, I'd want to be confident I'm making the best choice (so does everyone I guess).
Personally, I'm leaning towards a modular glasser. I think it's pretty co being able to see what's going on, and I've also read that they're better insulated and require less energy input to run over copper and stainless (if anyone can confirm?).
Other than fragility, and maybe an all copper setup looking nice as well, would there be any reason not to go for a glasser? I also understand stainless is easier to clean and maintain?
Also, while on the topic, would it be a waste of time/money going for all copper from the column onwards(i.e copper RC right down to copper PC)? Or is it mainly a case of price and aesthetics only from that part of the still onwards? As I've also read somewhere that copper makes near bugger all difference in sulfite removal if the temperature isn't there (i.e in the vapour path, not in liquid path).
Thanks in advance,
Phil.
