Videos of a 4" copper bubbler run, from start to finnish.

[emptyglass]

Here is a series of vids from a bubbler run, with a description meant for new guys. All up this stuff goes for over an hour, so make sure your glass is full, maybe even go get yourself a pack of chips, kick back and watch a flute run.

First 8. Another 8 to come.

Heres another 8. Time to refil the glass, maybe top up the chips as well.

Good work Empty, its good to see a bloke forking around in his man cave. Sharing his experiance and taking time to explain the basics to novices like me. Keep up the good work. :text-coolphotos:

Thankyou for you time... :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Your welcome guys.

I just hope it can help as there are a few guys out there with what seems to be problems with running one of these. There is not enough general discussion going on at the moment for new owners to sift through. Some of it might even help the www.5stardistilling.com.au owners.

I havn't had the opportunity to check to see if each video is intact, as internet connection playing up at the moment.
If there is something amiss, let me know.
I think the last vid, no. 16 did not upload. No. 10 seems funny. I'll check it when I can.

EG great instructional movies glad you showed the clean up also
was wondering how i was going to go about cleaning.
Interesting to see a feints run too.
I thing ive got my head around it now i have been doing a lot of reading but like you said there is not a lot of driving instructions, Im sure this will help out plenty of new users.

cheers :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Wash should only ever get to wine strength.
You can push it further (with more sucrose/ fructose) but it will leave bad tastes.

Feints runs will always run better (assuming the ABV is above about 20% to no more than 40%).

To get enough feints through one of these will take a lot of runs of wash to add up. These things are pretty good at heads and tails compression, so you don't get left with much feints.

Thanks for the posts here WineGlass. They will help me a lot. As has alreasy been said here, the running of the still is a bit unrepresented and this may be the start of a few people showing how their units run :handgestures-thumbupleft: :clap:

Tassie :D

You won't find a better tutorial than that, good work EG :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Since theres a few new bubbler guys on the block, I thought I'd give this a bump.

Take what you can, and leave the rest. Hope it helps.

Taken it all mate, thanks for the bump :handgestures-thumbupleft:

[emptyglass]

Now you guys have them up and going, check out number 16. Hope it helps

Thanks heaps Empty.

Great job with the vids. If a picture says a thousand words then a video can almost tell the whole story.

Thanks goanna, as you can tell, I'm not going to win any awards at a film festival, but hopefully the message is there.
