            Agh Jigsaw, bin through this procedure gawd knows
            how many times, to no avail! These are cellphone
            videos/vimeos and attaching a url there seems quite a
            mission. Thanks for the support anyway! Just a pity
            thye run-up turned somewhat sour.

            Nonetheless my set up seems to be working and managed
            a liter of gin. Still lots of room for improvement though!

                    • The next batch already brewing and almost ready for the still.
                      I must say that I am pleasantly surprised with the outcome of
                      the first batch. I envisaged a whole new learning curve and rocket
                      science in the making. Although there is still lots of room for
                      improvement! Like the improved bung that will replace the existing
                      one,...

                          I don't distill, but shouldn't the cold water enter from the bottom ??

                            Very observant you are. Saw this on other websites as well.

                            Have been meaning to ask this question myself but left it
                            for now. Does it really matter? Maybe the pro's here, can
                            give some better insight.

                            • I think it works the same as a counter flow chiller ....

                              the hot and cold enter from opposite sides

                              • Jip Jigsaw has it. The idea is that your coldest cooling water is at the outlet so your product is chilled as low as possible. If you introduce the cold watter where the product is the hottest you only cool to a midpoint where the to fluid Temps are as close as possible to each other
