    brought over from old forumsimon10/07/04 11:37 AMmaking whisky with reflex still would it work if i removed the packing and didnt use any reflexred neck !theholymackerel10/07/04 01:08 PMYes it will work. A pot still would work better.Yttrium10/16/04 08:09 PMIf you take the reflux out of a reflux still, it becomes a potstill.Light travels faster than sound. That is why some people appear bright until you hear them speak.

    I do not know the correct answer but looking forward to some replies because I am just going to buy a whiskey tower for my runs. I was scared that even if I have a reflux still that I might get a little reflux.

    Digging up the long dead I see. The OP is from 2004, not sure it’s the best place to post a question but yes, you can make a flavored product with a reflux still. Just unpack it or run it wide open.Current Evolution:MrDistiller > 2″ potstill > copper 4″ perf 4 plate flute”I seal the lid with Silly Putty, that’s OK ain’t it ?”~ kekedog13″Attach a vibrator to it and hang it upside down.
