Picked up a 10 gallon copper still

What do you all think about this thumper design? This is a 3 gal thumper with a 2-1/2 sitting on top as a stripping head. Small water coil mounted externally on the very top to help the water drop back.

I just ran a vinegar run tonight. Had a blast. Looking to fire it up again cooking more of what's left. Next I'll rum my sacrificial sugar wash. Then I need a good recipe.

sweet feed is said to make an excellent tasty shine.

You can make alot of different things with that. If you're after flavor, add some wash or juice to the thump. Stronger flavors preferred. If you want something more neutral use pure water. Very close to vodka. Maybe run it thru two or three times if you really care. Watch out for chlorine and chloramine in your water, its nasty. Good water will be the best tip you get.
