I plan to set it up completely as a pot still...I will remove all the plates and the dephlegmator, making a pot still as you mention.
I don't want it to be any slower at stripping than my current 3" pot still. If using 2" elbows at the top will make it behave as if the entire column was 2", I will use bigger elbows...
So in the diagram, the first pic is the bubbler design (with 2" bends)...the other 3 pics are the options when taking it's running as a pot still into account...
Sorry for the confusion 8-} It's more a vapour speed/volume theory question really...i'm not sure if the vapour speeding up for the restriction theory applies here and I get the same output as if the bends were 4", or if they greatly reduce the output...
