1.does this conversion kit in your mind make a purer and more neutral product...i am looking to achieve as close as i can to a tasteless odorless spirit...
2. do you still use cooling lines and where are they attached?
3. do you still want to keep a constant 78 c. and if so, how is that being done?
4.the slower you allow the product to drip, the better and purer the product ?
5. By initially operating the still with the valve closed for a period of time, you allow the various layers of chemicals in the column time to even out from the tumultuous churning caused by their initial reflux and rise in the column....how long of time aprox. do you keep the valve closed?
6. By carefully opening the valve, you begin to collect the topmost layer of distillate. If you do this carefully, you can avoid disturbing the equilibrium, allowing you the best possible separation of components and the theoretical maxiumum purity of distillate: the ethanol-water azeotrope...whatis meant by 'doing it carefully' hows is that done?
7. the output stem, below the valve...is that 1/2' od and how long is it??....i use a s.s. tube that runs from the out put to my collecting container instead of plastic tubing...i try to use nothing but s.s. and glass anywhere alcohol may come in contact...
8 do you still filter and even get a better product,because of the conversion kit, or are you saying you do not filter at all anymore?
