[ale] Moonshine

[Christopher Bergeron]

Here's a good site with more information about building a still like 
you're attempting:

http://running_on_alcohol.tripod.com/id3.html

I have the plans for this still, and I'm in the process of building it 
now.  The key for temperature control is to use a Johnson Controls 
valve/regulator.  It handles the temperature tuning, but at $300-400 
bucks, it's not a cheap component.

Kind regards,
Chris Bergeron
