Construction

1. Water / steam boiler, 2 liters. Approx. 1.8 liters of water are filled.

   1. 4 tension locks for securely locking the water / steam boiler using 2.1.

2. Plant / drug pipe, aproximately 4 liters content.

   1. Lid to close the kettle,

   2. Plant tube,

   3. 4 tension locks for closing the plant tube by means of the lid 3.

3. Lid with socket for the distillation bridge 4.

   1. Socket.

4. Distilling bridge with curved counterflow power cooler with a comfortable 90 cm cooling length.

   1. Riser pipe,

   2. Thermometer socket.

   3. Double pipe cooler in counterflow (outside jacket, inside core)

   4. Cooling water inlet

   5. Hot water drain.

   6. Hydrolat spout.

5. Laboratory thermometer with silicone stopper, insert in 4.2.

6. Aroma basket to insert into the steam pipe. This is about 3 cm away from the ground and a closed storage area in the middle, so that the rising steam jet does not flow directly through the plant matter and, due to the jet effect, blows a tunnel, which would lead to heavy losses. Due to the storage area, the steam initially flows radially and then rises through its own thermal. The plant pipe has a height / diameter ratio greater than 1, so that an effective chimney effect favors the drag effect. If you also want to work with smaller amounts of plant matter, you can order the adjustable aroma basket.
