Frank, that’s a link to a photo of my beast.
Three years design and build. She has two more of the “porthole” chambers and a 1m reflux extension, but with the glass chambers added in, there’s no room for them under this roof.
That should make some tasty hooch, perfect for making schnapps if you can hold the alcohol to the mid-scale. Low percentage schanapps of around 18% is a good taste bud cleanser like wine for before dinner, but on the higher end of the spectrum in the 45 to 50% range would be more for after dinner like a good brandy.Quote:

BTW, did you ever have any joy locating 'fatwood'? Cheers

Thanks Jim, I’ll have a look at their site.Quote:

Good stuff, If you need to see prices, I can PM you my login details, then you just add the item to your cart and the price shows up. Cheers
