Description: Bubble Plate with GasketCopper and Stainless SteelUse with 4" Sight Glass Distilling Bubble Plates are perhaps arguably the most crucial distilling invention since the invention of the still itself. Although they were originally invented in 1828, they are finding new-found popularity with artisans and hobby distillers today.The job of a Bubble Plate is simple: To force as much interaction of liquid and vapor as possible inside a still.Each Bubble Plate has one or more "bubbles" and a single downcomer (essentially a "bubble" that is mounted upside down on the underside of the plate).THE DOWNCOMER'S JOB:The downcomer - as the name implies - is a one-way "return valve" for the liquid gathering above the Bubble Plate. The liquid returns either to the boiler or to the (optional) Bubble Plate assembly below it.A crucial part the downcomer plays is setting the level of the liquid above the Bubble Plate. The top of the downcomer is always lower than the top of each Bubble, creating a "drain plug" for the condensed liquid.THE BUBBLE'S JOB:Each "bubble" in a bubble plate acts as a one-way valve; allowing vapor to go UP through the bubble while preventing distillate from dripping back down through the Bubble.The action of the vapor bursting through the bubble roils the liquid within the Bubble Plate container, forcing a much larger vapor-to-liquid interaction than simple column distilling produces.CAN YOU STACK 'EM?If ONE Bubble Plate is great, then TWO would be better, right? Bubble Plates can be stacked on each each other, providing a repeating column reflux.This is the Bubble Plate (we use TWO of them!) from our revolutionary 4" Tri Clover Double Bubble Plate Sight Glass.Feel free to contact us with any adaptation questions.CHARACTERISTICS and SPECIFICATIONS:· 4" food-grade silicone gasket is included.· Total of 5 Bubble Caps plus 1 downcomer.· Bubbles and downcomer 100% copper.· All other metal components are 304 Stainless Steel *** LAST PICTURE: SIGHT GLASS IS FOR ILLUSTRATION PURPOSES ONLY - NOT INCLUDED ***
