Great build didn't you use the 80 litre keg for a boiler
I had one and added a 30 litre keg on top that gave me a 120 litre liquid capacity best thing I ever did

Glad to see you have it up and running. Bet it opens up your distilling quite a bit.

Gave it a clear coat after a bit of polishing with fine steel wool. Not a perfect finish but should hold the shine for a while
