perforated sheet 1mm diameter holes, 2x1m, 304 grade
We can also design objects based on your specifications :
spice basket for a gin column 75 USD
We build them at your desired dimentions, exemple prices below:
- Copper coils
42 USD (for a 3" diameter, using 1/4" or 3/8" outer diameter copper tubing)
- Stainless steel coils :
- Stainless steel liebigs :
- Stainless steel shell and tube condenser (aka shotgun condenser), 3" diameter, 13 tubes, 60 cm long with lugs for screw attachment and barbed fittings for hose connection. 350 USD
We also build heat exchangers based on your designs for example :
HERMS brewing heat exchanger 290 USD (17 cm diam, 35 cm height,1/4" threaded fittings, 2kw heating element included). It was originally designed by hermsbrewery.com. Package 5.6 kg
RIMS brewing heat exchanger 130 USD (5cm diameter, 2 or 2.5kw heating element included depending on stock).
Spiral Prismatic Packing (SPP)
This a new type of packing that has been patented by Russian researchers from the Mendeleiev Institute.
If your heating power nears or exceeds the maximum power (see below) a power controller is necessary for using SPP so that you can get the best output without flooding the column. SPP is very similar to Fenske helices / Fenske spirals with the difference that SPP has openings on the side.
Ethanol distillation performance :
2" columns
-1 meter height of spp in a 2" column (that's about 2 liters spp) can bring a 10% abv to 95.5% in a single run
-max power : 1.9 kw,
3" columns
-1.5m of packing can bring a 10% abv to 95.5% in a single run
- max power: 4 kw
- takeoff rate (2.7 liter/hour).
Dimensions of the SPP :
-2.4mm diameter
-2 to 3 mm length
-0.25mm wire diameter
-wire is stainless steel 304
Setup:
- always perform a cleaning run (distill 10% ethanol and throw away the result) or boil the SPP to remove the remaining cutting oil before using the SPP for distilling drinks
- SPP is best held in place by tighly packing stainless steel scrubbers on the bottom of the column (3 for a 3" column, 2 for a 2" column)
Price is 27 USD / kg or 43.2 USD / liter. Packaging weigths 15% of SPP and is added to calculate shipping cost.
