Planning for a 2" Boka reflux still for wine -> 95% neutral
Posted: Thu Jun 28, 2018 11:02 pm
I have 1000L of red wine and I want 90+% neutral spirit. The wine is oxidised and no longer good to drink so it was free :handgestures-thumbupleft: . Im planning on building/buying a set up that can distil the red wine through to a good quality product. Ill keep 100L to run through a pot still for brandy as I hear oxidised wine makes good brandy.
My current plan is to build a LM Boka Reflux Still from this guide (http://aussiedistiller.com.au/viewtopic.php?f=57&t=3120). Ill use 2" copper tube and a 20-50L stainless steel stock pot and use 100% copper packing mesh. I have put together a schematic of the planned build.
I have a couple of questions
1. Is there any issues with the schematic? Specifically, are the dimensions and layout all correct?
1. Will this set-up produce a good 90+% neutral? I’m open to suggestions on other build options.
2. Can I use this for the first strip run?
Thanks
