    One of the things it does is break down esters. Esters are chemically a carboxilic acid, chemically bound to an alcohol, be that ethanol, methanol, etc. By making it basic, it can break those esters apart.

    Do you think it would work equally as well if the fan was extracting hot air from the top of the inverter and therefore pulling cooler air from below ?

    I've been enjoying your videos - thank you for posting. I'm late to the party here, but the packed section should go between your plates and your dephleg. For the packed section to "reflux" and increase ABV, it needs a condenser above it to send condensate back down the column. You're getting bugger all reflux the way you have it. You will find you'll lose flavour if you use a packed section when running a "brown" wash/mash (eg: rum, whisky, etc.). If you want to maintain flavour do away with the packed section and just run plates. I gotta say, I just don't get plated columns for the home distiller (they look cool tho!). The same effect can be had using a packed column and varying the amount/height of packing in the column and varying how much condensate the reflux condenser sends back down. A more economical method. Cheers from Australia.

    @nigelcox7192 5 месяцев назад

    Using your method of incorporating the Soda Crystals into a second distillation, I'm having some good results with the following method. Keep up the great work mate. Classic 8 Turbo Yeast. 8 Kilo's of sugar. 20 Litres of water at 30 degrees Celsius. Method:- Sterilise all brewing equipment. Add 20 litres of water at 30 C to a 25 Litre (5 Gallon) brewing bucket. Add 8 kilo's of granulated sugar and stir until dissolved. Add HALF of the Classic 8 Turbo yeast packet - this will ferment out to 20% ABV after two weeks. If you want the wash to ferment out in a shorter time, add all of the yeast packet. There is no need to use the “Carbon”. LOOSLY sit the lid on the brewing bucket. Keep at around 25C for the fermentation period (I use a fish tank heater). Once Fermentation Has Finished. There is no need to use finings, nor is there a need to leave it to clear on it's own. The wash can be distilled as soon as fermentation has stopped. Just make sure to degas it well. Stripping Run Using a 6L, 900w, Water Distiller together with a voltage regulator, add 6L of the wash to the distiller. Connect the power lead to the water distiller, via the voltage regulator. Run at full power for 20 minutes, with the distiller cap OFF Once the wash has warmed through, place the distiller cap on, connect it via a direct power cable to an electrical outlet, and switch on (This allows the fan to run at full speed. Connecting it to the power socket on the distiller, will mean that when the voltage regulator is turned down, the fan will also run slower). Set a jug, or similar, under the outlet spout, and collect the first 60ml. This can be used for cleaning, or adding to the screen wash on your car. After the first 60ml has been collected, place your “Proofing Parrot” under the outlet, turn the voltage regulator down to around the point where the distillate, coming out of the parrot, is a steady drip, and collect the distillate until the hydrometer is reading 20%ABV. Switch off the power to the distiller BUT, LEAVE THE FAN RUNNING FOR A FURTHER 10 MINUTES. Store the distillate in another brewing bucket or demijohn and, run another stripping run. The Spirit Run Measure the product from the first two stripping runs (both volume and ABV) and, using the link below (or similar) temper the product down to less than 40%ABV www.distilling-spirits.com/tools/calculations/diluting-alcohol/ Add 6 litres of the distillate, to the water distiller, AND, ADD 3 LEVEL TEASPOONS (half a level teaspoon per Litre) of Washing Soda crystals. Run the still, with the lid/Condenser/cap OFF, at full power for the first 20 minutes then, replace the lid/condenser/cap, reduce the power to the same point as the stripping run, where the distillate was coming out as a drip. And leave it to go. THERE IS NO NEAD TO COLLECT THE FIRST 60ML OF THIS RUN. Collect everything down to about 30%ABV. Measure the quantity and %ABV, of the distillate collected and, again using the calculator on the web link, proof down to your desired %ABV and add the flavourings of your choice. Using this method, of double distillation, is allowing me to make just over 10 x 750ml bottles of 40% ABV distillate, from a 25 Litre wash. ALTERNATIVELY! A THIRD Distillation Again, using the calculator, refill the distiller with your desired volume of 40%ABV distillate and ADD some botanicals (your preference/choice - I used two eating apples and a half a handful of Juniper berries. Which gave me a Gin, with a hint of apple), DIRECTLY into the distillate. Run as per the Spirit Run.

  • @johnraines506
    @johnraines506 8 месяцев назад

    Hi there, I have done exactly the same thing with an Inkbird controller and a ventilation fan. The main difference is the ventilation fan filter. This stops the heat sink fins from getting covered in dust over time. The dust reduces the efficiency of the heat sink. I also note the small range between the SET temperature and the turn-off temperature. Turning the fan off and on many times during a heat cycle has the potential to ware the relays in the controller and reduce the life of the fan motor. Note you have left a gap between fan and the bottom of the inverter. Good move, when the fan fails the natural convection cooling will not be affected. Great video, thanks for sharing your design.

    • @highly-spirited
      @highly-spirited 8 месяцев назад

      Hi there. Well each person will run their type of Still a little differently and get different results and also take temperature reads from different places on the Still, so there’s no set rule. In saying that the nature of the beast is pretty reliable, but you’re in the right ballpark with temperatures. I run mine at 92 in the Pot while collecting, and this increases over the course of the Run. It’s probably 84 in the Head, I say probably, because I don’t take a reading from the Head. And I don’t do that because the best indication, for me, that all is as it should be, is the speed of the product that’s coming off. My advice is take it slow at first. Over time you’ll get your technique honed and the whole process will quicken up. And you don’t need to have temperature reads, but it helps as a guide as to how quickly things are heating up. Once you’ve got your Wash up to temperature (74 degrees in the Head), you’ll be very close to the point the Product will be coming out. If it’s too quick, then dial it back, normally with a reduction in heat or with higher water flow through the pre-condenser (if using a Reflux Still). Again, experience will guide you as to what needs to be adjusted. You’re looking for something like a fast drip take off rate. HTH. There’s plenty of good info out there. So I hope you get everything up and running. Enjoy 😊
