Hey guys, so it was brought to my attention that a thermostat controlled hotplate is not the most ideal heat source for a still (although I did manage to get it to work, I'm sure that it doesn't provide reliable results).
So now my question is, what is the best way to purchase/ make a temperature controlled heat source.
Ideally I'd like a hot plate style biz, because it means that I don't have to make any more holes, and makes it a little more collapsible. At the moment I have a 1600w breville hotplate, that does take a while to get my wash up to temperature, mainly I'm sure because it's always shutting off due to the thermostat. Am I better off;
a) buying something else
b)rewiring the hotplate i have (and what parts i need)
c) just use what I've got and not have 100% perfect results
Thanks for your time!
