    I’m looking for an agitator for a 250 gallon pot still. I found a ss pneumatic one for a 50 gallon drum. Am wondering if that is enough agitation. Any advise would be appreciated.

    Do you have a link to the specs for the agitator?  Will you be doing any on the grain mashes or other mashes that are thick and viscus?

    I found a dairy tank agitator in Craigslist. Works great.

    What is the heating source for the still? We use an undersized agitator that works fine (including grain-in mashes) for a steam jacket still, but you would definitely need more agitation for direct or jacketed heating elements.
