Hey all.
I've very new to the distilling community and have enjoyed distilling with my beginner setup. I'd done about 5 runs of various washes, though I am interested in making/buying a potstill for stripping and maybe in future brown spirits.
Since I bought the ... T500, I can't really do quick stripping runs to accumulate low wines for spirit runs. And since I'd rather not start getting into filtering, I'd like to look at stripping a couple washes then doing a slow spirits run.
Everywhere I've looked says it's easy to build a simple pot still head, I've seen a couple of made for the T500. Though I've yet to find a guide on building a simple pot still head for T500, I wouldn't call myself a handy man, but I don't see why I couldn't put something simple together with enough instruction and info. If I've missed something, it would great if you could point me in the right direction.
At the moment, since I can't seem to find any basic instructional info on building a pot still I was thinking of going the route of a cheap Keggomax T500 Condenser Pot Still head, as the still spirits copper dome and condenser are quite pricey (also read you don't get much for what you pay with SS condenser/dome).
TL;DR - I'd appreciate some advice on build guides for simple pot still heads, or would it just be worth purchasing a cheap one on eBay since it's will mainly be used for stripping.
Cheers.
