@demnlordd666 1) To double distill the alcohol while removing more and more impurities. It uses the steam from the pot and pushes through the back ends, evaporating more alcohol along the way and distilling at a higher proof, (2)thus the reason you don't use water in a thump keg. Wouldn't do any good.

@WildlifeSeriaLKiller ok so it is a reflux chamber kinda. the alcohol steam mix hits the colder back ends in the thump keg, but only the alcohol is mobile enough to stay in vapor form while the water steam looses too much energy and gets stuck, then you are passing more alcohol to the worm. ok so when you are done with the run, are the back ends the last out the worm or the stuff left in the thump keg that still has alcohol?

you can skip the thumper but it's dangerous. the thumper catches bad stuff, as wall as tempers it ( lowers the alcohol content) diluting any methanol that gets through. the best way to control these things though is to carefully control the temprature. ethanol, methanol, water, etc. all have a different boiling point so if you have the still at or within a couple degrees of the ethanol vapor point, you get only ethanol and stuff that boils at colder tempratures.

1) what is the function of the stump keg? I understand the construction and flow of steam but not why it is important unless it is some kind of simple reflux chamber. could some one explain it a bit? 2) why do the bakkins need to be used instead of clean water or plain moon shine? I get that it is a mix of alcohol and water, and probably keeps more water and lets alcohol pass at the gas/liquid interface. but could some one explain?
