Grabbed this unit to experiment with some old wine. I added an extra 12 inch section, 2 filter plates to hold SPP packing in the tubes, and a sight glass under the dephlegmator. I use a 3 kw element in a 50L beer keg, and I pump water through the condensors with a 12 V caravan pump connected to a 1200L tank. With 30 years experience as a winemaker I can say that this equipment is made to a very high quality. I have distilled to 94% abv from 12% abv wine and 95.5% abv from 30% abv diluted low wines.
