What do you mean here, Sinerjee?
Zak, from what I've been able to understand from reading, 2400W seems to be about perfect for a full bubbler system. Doesn't overpower the reflux condenser so it's good to heat up with two elements then drop back down to one once I reach operating temp. I might have read that wrong though.

I run that 3 ring burner on the standard reg 40L to boil and the 1st liter off in 1 hr cheap on gas. Stripping run all 3 rings all the way 7liters an hour slows to about 5-6 litres in tails sit you keg on a car rim, elevate the rim 20-30mm to allow air flow I also run a tiny bench fan. For a spirit run 40 Litre boil 45min approx then shut down small a large ring just run medium ring flat out and turn off the fan runs at 2litres an hour. I suspect not all the standard regs run at the same pressure
Cheers Kicka
Awesome info there Kicka, How did you elevate the rim for the air flow? Just some planks or similar?

Once up to temp you shouldn't need much more than just the smallest ring going for a spirit run with a pot still, you might have to crack the second ring open just a bit, that parts gunna be trial and error.
Definitely looks the way to go then. Thanks SBB :handgestures-thumbupleft:
