the way i run my still is first, run it till the bottom gauge reaches 60c (this should only take about a hour to boil)
then i turn water on (not full tit either) otherwise it will cool the still down too quick,( have a look on youtube if you don't have the instruction manual on how to set up the water flow using the needle tap that comes with the still.)
if your still is older like mine the top temp gauge will go up past 75c before you will start seeing any liquid coming out, the bottom gauge you can run anywhere between 55 & 65c but slower the better so as close to 55c as possible.
on youtube it says take the first 100ml of & through i take 150 to 200ml off then you start doing your cuts from there, all up from when you first turn the still on till the end of the run should take 5 to 5 1/2 hours. i hope this helps mate :handgestures-thumbupleft:
