Noise Tower
Available (or soon to be available) Setups
Note: All equipment is made from lab grade borosilicate glass
Noise Tower Junior
- 3L 5 neck round bottom flask (24/40 joints and 29/42 joints)
- 3L heating mantle
- Variac for heating mantle control
- Vacuum jacketed distilling column w/ ~0.4" internal diameter
- Beryl saddle packing for distilling column
- "Thumper" to fit 0.5" glass joints
- 0.5" distilling head with ball valve reflux control
- 0.5" high efficiency condenser
- 0.5" distillation receiver and connecting glass
Noise Tower Big Boy
- 22L 5 neck round bottom flask (29/42 joints and 45/50 joints)
- 22L heating mantle
- 1 Variac for heating mantle control
- A second Variac is needed!
- 6 stage 1" inner diameter plate distillation column (no packing needed)
- 1" inner diameter distilling adapter with needle valve reflux control
- 1" inner diameter coil condenser
- No receiver is available for this size, but the distilling adapter ends in a 0.75" compression fitting, so something could be fashioned if needed
- No thumper is available for this size
Purification / Aging Equipment
- 6L capacity glass frit filters (used to support a packed carbon bed)
- 500mL capacity glass frit filters
- 2x 19L glass carboys for storage/cleanup w/ rubber plugs
- No activated carbon is available in the space
- Filtering through the glass frits without using vacuum takes forever...we should probably devise a better solution for filtration in the future
- Some means to stir the contents of the carboys for aging would be awesome
Condenser Loop Equipment
- We need to buy an aquarium pump and enough adapters to allow 1/4" ID flexible tubing to attach to the pump
Test Equipment
- 6x hydrometers for rating specific gravities from 0.8 - 0.95 in 0.001 increments
- We need a glass sample cylinder
Brewing Equipment
- 2x 19L glass carboys for w/ rubber plugs
- No Turbo-yeast is available in the space
- No Airlocks available
- No temperature control equipment is available in the space. This could become a problem when we try to make large batches, but maybe it won't
