Thank you Professor! Much love from South Texas.
Your very welcome, but I'm just a guy that Loves Old School Science!
Thanks for sharing your knowledge.
Your welcome the support means the worls
Great video! Thanks.
Thanks for this :) :)
Your very welcome. Alot more to come!
That’s a beautiful still and an even better explanation. I look foreword to the thumper edition! 🥃
Thank you it's my pride and joy, the thumper video is in the works
That info was priceless, thanks a heap men.
Ever wonder why they use wood thumpers on MoonShiners?? I'll tell you soon!
@@PoppaLongroach They hold the heat well?
@@garrymcgaw4745 exactly!!
@@PoppaLongroach :)-
Great information. 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
That was a very good information video that will help out many thanks for the explanation 😃
Thanks, I love spreading Old School Science around!
Thank you sir you kept me from making a bad mistake thank you for the info sir I'm a beginner but I'm learning fast
Explained with ease and nicely done. Leaves me wanting more. Wish he had time to go start to finish on the whole cycle. Will keep watching thank you
Fantastic! Thanks for the lesson. I feel a new channel coming soon 👍
Still in the Clear is the place to be my friend.
Hi I’m al from Australia I’m been doing research on moonshine and stills I’m just saving money up to start doing moonshine for my self only
👍
Dang bro. Ive watched read n listened to alot of jaw jabbing. Your the only dude to ever spit straight. Thank you.
And that's why an old school alembic still has an onion shaped cap. Still get flavor but a higher proof. Some of the first moonshiners in the US were Irish and Scottish and they used alembic type pot stills
Yep, the alembic is one of the oldest still designs on record.
Great stuff man. Great job. Rock on!
I love the concise explanation of how the parts of the still matter. Being an old-school stiller myself, it was simply great seeing the still craft explained so well for the up and comers. Thanks for making these videos old school.
This is one of the best thumper videos and explanations of line arms and diameter explanation I have ever seen. So if I’m understanding this correctly if you were to want to use a tall column for higher proof and shoot thumper for flavor at the same time all you need to do is elevate your thumper so you don’t have the Long column leading to the thumper acting as a condenser ?
Yep, you got it. Short path to the thumper.
I love this gentleman!!
He's a wealth of knowledge!!!
In May. Your great. Need to see the rest of your videos
Well said 👍🏻
That was actually really a great video
Like turlough Kennedy said l've been waiting for a video like this and yes it was very help full my arm coming off the cap is on a down slope to the thumper instead of straight 3 feet then down to the thumper like he was saying but my thumper pretty big to handle the extra distillation coming off the pot I'm run a 10 gallon with a 2 and 3/4 gallon thumper but I still got alot to learn about the mash can't get my corn mash to taste like corn keep tasting like whiskey and Tequila mix together I cook the corn cool it down to malt pitching temperature then the yest but using distillers yeast I think I might be using to much sugar cause my Mash hydrometer is reading 15 instead of the seven or eight
I never go above 1.050 on my starting gravity. With all the liquid in the thumper, it can never get hit enough to function, you passing really hot vapor straight through the distillate in the thumper without anything redistilling.
Thank you I learn something new everyday
Great job sir. Thanks a million. Learning a lot from this channel.
Thank you. I'm glad you are finding our videos helpful.
I wish I could do an apprenticeship under a guy with knowledge like this
Simple explanation of a complex topic. Thank you Sir.
Man that’s awesome great information. Simple to the point.
Great info. Thank you.
Now I'm rethinking some copper I bought to maximize copper in minimum space. I got a heat trap loop firstly because it looked cool. But it gives almost 3 feet of copper pipe in about 8 horizontal inches. I'll keep it around and connect it occasionally for a different kick whether it flavor or Alcohol. I'll eventually get this ship headed in the right direction😂
Great video! Good info as always!
Good informative video and well presented !
I understand the "reflux effect" due to the heatloss in the top section + pipe to the thumper. The less surface in the top section, the less condensation, the better it is for your thumper function. I guess thermal insulating them would be even better.
In the old days and hidden somewhere in the woods, it was not possible to exactly control the heat input into the mash. Heating was done by an open wood fire. In fact with a thumper you need some extra heat to carry-over hot water vapor to get the thumper going.
Well said my friend!!
Instant subscribe Holy shit makes sense
Awesome video...crazy how much science that is involved in this craft .
Yes it is, but it's all Old School Science, and that's the best kind!!
@@PoppaLongroach I totally appreciate what you're doing . I'm learning soo much and tweaking what I'm already doing....you rock
I've watched this 3 Tim's now almost in a row. My question is what happens with a bourbon ball on top?
Great video, but I have to comment that it is bad form not to include a link to the "Still'in Old School" channel. I had to search that name on UA-cam to find his other videos. Always share links of people whose videos you use or who you collaborate with. That's just how it's done.
You're absolutely right. Thank you for bringing that to my attention.
What I want to know is what gauge do u use to make the still and how much u need for a pot like this cause that dam copper is expensive. And if u try to buy one this size you'll have to take out a second mortgage.
What happened to Still’n Old School’s channel?
Did he get in trouble or something?
friend tell me what is in the barrel is it an understudy so-called head-tails there? or works like a bubbler??
ok have a 1/2 going to thump are ya saying 1 or1.5 is better
Yes in my experience a gallon is small as I recommend. In my next video I'll be explaining the reasons for this and how thumpers really work and easy ways to make them work for you.
How come his content is gone
I don't know for sure. Maybe he deleted his channel.
@PoppaLongroach Please re-upload your videos! 🙏
