5. As shown in the picture to the
right, you will receive two flow
control devices with this still.
You will receive a flow control
device with a 0.6mm hole and
also another one with a 1.0mm
hole. The hole size is what
dictates the speed at which
the spirit flows out of the still.
As a result by using a larger
flow you will get faster
collection of spirit but at the
same time you will get a
reduction in purity. We have
included both flow control
devices so you can either use
the 0.6mm flow control device
which will mean your
distillation process will take
longer but you will get higher
purity. We have also included
the 1.0mm flow control device
so you can swap this one into
the system and get lower
purity but it will allow you to
collect the spirit faster. Some
customers use the 1mm hole
for stripping runs which.
6. The different flow control
devices are marked discretely
with a small punch on the side
of the device but if you have
good eyesight you can probably see the difference in hole size with your naked
eyes.
