Hey everyone, i hope this doesn't make too many people facepalm :doh:
Im running a t500 with the Pot Still Alembic Dome and Condenser.
Its a basic beginner setup but for now its all i can afford to own. Ive gotten pretty good at getting what i can out of it but i could use some advice.
My main concern is that when i run my rum wash the condenser seems to struggle. It seems to me that there's too much output for such a small condenser. (sometimes my product gets hot and there's nothing i can do to cool it as the actual condenser is cold as ice)
Ive decided the first step is to install some temperature control on the t500. pretty straight forward. Ive found this which i would love someones experienced opinion on.

My next idea was to possibly upgrade or add in more in the way of condensers. I understand that typically pot stills only have one condenser but is it completely wrong to have two as Ive seen on other stills?
The kicker is i want to make all my parts myself and for as little as possible. so if anyone has any great ideas, or is there has been a thread before (i have searched alot) please point me in the right direction.
Thanks in advance
Cheers
