Are the people saying your not getting enough product 8kg/turbo users?

6kg sugar in 65L isn't much, that's if your filling the boiler.
If your only doing a 50L wash then it's still not enough.
Good rule of thumb is 1kg sugar for 5L wash, so 10kg sugar for 50L wash.
It would be about right for a 30-35L wash,
If that is the case assuming you started with a 10%ABV wash you've got all the ethanol your going to get easily at those percentages.

Ok, skip and forget the pid, the problem is that you already have a built in one that you shouldn't be using, sorry, should have searched your boiler first. These boilers are not suited to running a still for anything except a stripping run on a pot still without some modifications by a qualified person and a power controller
Have a read of this http://aussiedistiller.com.au/viewtopic ... 872d00ca7e
We did cover this type of boiler in a post somewhere i think for a grainfather, but i cant find it right now,
I believe in the end it became easier to fit out a keg for the user
