Ish... you will waste a lot of the essential oil with a leaky seal, and an inefficient condenser. That arrangement can be improved considerably if you put ice in the upside down lid, to make it a more effective condensation surface.

Let me know how that goes, Chaunce. I'd love to hear about your experiences and the volumes that you put in the still and the amount of oil you produced.We are about ready to try out our copper alembic still for the first time using lemon balm and peppermint

...Just a girl, searching for Heaven on earth....
essential oils and their attendant waters/hydrosols need to be distilled at steam temperatures, pressures and times specific to the plant, and a distillation too hot, too cold, or too long will either ruin the end products, or waste them entirely
