"Hello odonel,
When I had my easystill, I would use about 8 lbs of sugar to about 5 liters of water and heat it up to help the sugar disolve, then I poured it into a 10 liter fermenter and added water until I had about 8 liters total in the container. I let it cool down to about 90 degrees fahrenheit, add about 1/3rd of the turbo-yeast making sure the package is mixed well to get a good blend of yeast and nutrients.(you don't need the whole package and you can store it in the fridge for the next batch)
stir well to aerate, cover and wait. No need to add distiller"s nutrients since the turo-yeast has enough in it.

There are directions on using the filter system on the brewhaus web site, it's for the 3 piece filter system but you can scale it down pretty easy, here is the link. http://www.brewhaus.com/Catalogs/activated_book1.pdf
Hope this helps!

"Hey odonel,
It took about 5 days before I stopped getting bubbles. Some people will stop after 3 days by measuring their SG, once your SG is at 00 your done.
Next you will want to funnel into another container and add a clearing agent, I use Sparkolloid that brewhaus sells and let that sit for at least 24 hrs.
Pour or siphon it into your easystill and wait. after a couple of hours you'll start getting a nice steady drip. If you not sure how much distillate you'll get from your wash, go to the brewhaus website and click on the calculator section, there you can use one of the calculators to estimate how much product you should expect. I only collect my distillate down to when it' gets to 40%, after that you start getting off flavors. If you want, you can collect all of you product but make sure that anything below 40% you will want to collect it in a different container, save it and reuse it in your next batch you distill.

If you distill it once you probably will want to carbon filter it, it really makes a difference. Some people here say they just pour the carbon in a container (make sure the container will handle the distillate and not break down from the alcohol and contaminate it product. glass is the best) add the distillate and shake it, let settle and repeat I think it takes a few days that way, but I may be wrong. I use the tube filled with the carbon and put the filter on one end with the small funnel to help hole it in place. Make sure your carbon is cleaned and wet so that it settles in the tube better. Just pour it from the top and let it flow through to your catch bottle.

Hope this helped.
Have fun!
Steve"
