STEP 1 [ASSEMBLY]
• Remove all saddles from your column and rinse it
thoroughly.
• Connect the short thin tube to the condenser outlet
E
.
• Connect the long thick tube over the short thin tube.
This will flow into your sink.
• Connect the long thin tube onto the water inlet
B
.
• Connect the white tube on the outlet
D
. The distilled
water will flow from here to your collecting vessel.
• You don’t need a thermometer for water distillation.
STEP 2 [WATER DISTILLATION]
Distilling 20 L (5 US Gal) of water will take about 8-10
hours from start to finish (excluding heating time) and
will produce approximately 18 L (4.8 US Gal) of distilled
water.
You will need to have:
• Clock or timer.
• Large vessel to collect distilled water (as large as the
quantity of water initially placed in the boiler).
• Cooling water supply.
1. Place the boiler body on a firm, level, bench where the
waste can discharge into a drain or sink. Add water to
your boiler, do not fill beyond the maximum level line
on the boiler.
2. Place the column and boiler lid assembly onto the
boiler base. Fasten the four clips that hold the lid
onto the boiler. Check the sealing gasket is sitting
firmly onto the boiler with no gaps.
3. Connect the power to the boiler. The water will take
about 80 minutes to heat to boiling temperature.
4. Before the water begins to boil, turn on the cooling
water just enough so that the distillate doesn’t come
steaming, but rather flowing in a liquid form.
5. After you have collected 18 L (4.8 US Gal) of water,
(if distilling 20 L (5 US Gal)), turn the boiler power
off and disconnect from the power outlet. Turn off
the cooling water supply. Be careful when discarding
remaining water left in boiler as this will be hot.
The distilled water must be filtered through the
EZ Filter system to ensure any unwanted flavours and
aromas from previous washes are removed. Refer to
your filter manual for filtering instructions.
