I will measure during the day tomorrow, been kind of busy last couple of days :? :mrgreen:

I have to say I am a little excited/intimidated about this, never had a stripper in my kitchen before :oops: :lol:
Dont forget the water needs to connect to normal internal kitchen tap ;)

After september if all goes well I might be able to handle extra fluids, might get the appetite back to increase my beer intake.... until then I gotta stick to small quantities of 40% ;)

A bottle a night is not unusual here :lol:

twenty four bottles of rum on the wall twenty four bottles of rum :lol:

Yum cha is one of my favorites mmmmmmmmmmmm mmmmmmmmmmmmmm

I spent today getting my stilling area sorted out, built a couple of shelves and rewired my elements, also put a light bulb on my "flux capacitator" (controller) that works off the potentiometer.

Now the new rig, 150L boiler with 6kw of heating elements on a controller is ready to do some serious stillin :mrgreen:

Got my 8" tri clamps today in the post, so now have most of the gear I need to build the big bubbler, guess where I'll be for a few days :lol:

It's two elements, one is 2.4 kw the other 3.6.... in testing stages at the moment through my new flux capacitator :lol: :? :lol:

If it works once I got a wash to run yippeeee, if not then I'll install a mass spectrometer to the flux capicitator to increase the load for the formosis plasmaconspiritator to get the required denomination of spasmodic circulatory amperage :ugeek:
