Hi everyone,
Hope you all had a great Anzac day.
Just finished my first run with a 25 litre boiler and a fsd pot still head , l run it with no power control and ran it down to around 15 % abv . Collecting about 4.5 litres of low wines .
Does this sound about the right amount to collect from a Teddy sads made the way the recipe says to make it .Charged the boiler with around 20 litres of wash.

Just heating g the boiler up to run another 20 litres through. From what l have read there is not a lot l need to do control wise or water wise , obviously have to have enough water going through so not getting hot water I the out hose , just making sure l am on the right path :handgestures-thumbupleft:
