:teasing-tease:

What the bloody hell is that? More information Mac (please) if it works as good as it looks, it'll be a ripper. Please explain. Cheers :handgestures-thumbupleft:

As this is in the drinking section....
I'd suggest the top photo was of his new glass for scotch..... and a tea strainer.. Cause Mac drinks lots of tea.. :laughing-rolling: :laughing-rolling: :laughing-rolling:

I have just put some items together.

Check out Doc's website and the design drawings of his new still.

I think he might be waiting for a parcel a bit like an expectant father. Mac, instead of you wasting time taking a photo, I think Doc would have preferred that you were packing those items and getting them in a teletransporter such that he didn't have to wait any longer.

Actually I reckon he's seen more than you have :laughing-rolling:

Yeah but! What on earth is with the glass section? And the valves after the tee piece? Almost like you want something going one way, or/then the other way. Or are the valves before the tee ?
Too many questions. Hurry up with the answers :pray:

The valves have to be a gin head as is the basket.
My guess is FSD is also getting into the glass bubblers.
Hmmm Mac, am I close?

Nup! no glass bubblers ;-)

Something like this?

Ah well the cat's out now, so no point holding back 8-}

So is the idea to make gins and be able to extract essential oils as well :-B

I ordered 2 complete units as prototypes to play around with, today I built the down tube that goes into the sight glass so it's a thumper.... this is for the Doc's 8" rig that'll be used predominantly for gins.

The other one I'll set up a little differently to be used on my 6" rig for spiced rum & vodka infusions, but mines going to fizz lots of little bubbles rather than thump large bubbles ;-)

I got a fair few pics today but just need to sort through them to find the good ones that show the internals, however Gas on is on his way over for a few drinks so I wont be putting pics up today :teasing-neener:

More cool stuff i want what are you doing the the distilling population Mac :laughing-rolling:
Good work bro :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Im drinking Pusser's standard and got my hand on a bottle of the the 15 yo the other day the 15 yo is good but a lot different than the standard
ild all most say it has a strong sulphur nose to it

Got 2x 28kg buckets of Fancy molasses on its way so thats the next mish

Mac do plan on building a 4" version , looks very entertaining :-B

Edit just checked the plans it it 4" 8-}

Yeah if anyone wants one to fit their 4" rigs out I can just change out the current 4" x 3" tees for 4" x 2" tees. :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Oh and here's a couple more pics of how the thump tube is inserted, I had to custom build the tube in my shed to know for sure it's going to work properly, so now I can get the lower tee made with the thump tube already installed permanently :handgestures-thumbupleft: .

Mate you must be so proud... your design ability and fabrication are without question the very best I have seen in distilling. I am proud to be the fortunate recipient, and look forward too showing off this still and creating great spirits in the 5 Star way for decades to come... Thank you Mac, and you Mrs Mac I know how hard you guys work to get this right. Humbly.
Doc

Doc it's a shared design with many hours of conversation involved, amongst all the other dribble we laugh about, so I didnt want to post a pic of it as a completed unit.... however if you dont mind I'd like too :handgestures-thumbupleft:
