Reflux Still or Pot Still?

What to choose and why??
In this video we look at what we can put on top of the keg conversion still we made in the last video. We explore the 2 main types of home distillers stills, pot stills and reflux stills. We also explore the basics of what distillation is, how it works and ultimately how that affects our choices in terms of pot stills and reflux stills. We then look at the choices I made in selecting my column. What it consists of, and what we plan to use it for. We take a brief look at how to control the power levels in the still, and then how to prepare the sill for first use - cleaning it, and prepping it.
Here are some of the parts I ordered… not sure I have a full list any more.
Element - You need the 220V version for UK. I used the 3Kw model. it heats 30L of wash to boiling in just about an hour.
