hi there,
just coz i can, i was thinking of making a device to distill water for brewing with (mainly because i know from a chemistry prac at uni last year how dirty (and hard) brisbane's water is, plus, i can use our rain water tank water if i distill it. my question is, has anybody done this before using simple stuff from around the house/garage. i was thinking of either using my 19L brewpot as the boiler or nicking one of mums smaller saucepans. my main issue is the fitting together of stuff to collect the steam and the fashioning of a cheap and easy condenser.
anybody got some plans made up of something that they have used like this before?
