You guys helped me out with a bunch of kick ass brazing tips and tricks. This week I want to thank you for helping me out and share what you taught me about how to braze copper to stainless with any other newbies wanting to learn.
First up I share all the tips and tricks, after that I run through what I make this week. Making a few more parts for the CCVM still.
Don’t forget to check the comments, that’s where the real magic happens.

Love how you embraces a new skill with its ups and downs. Way back when I worked as a refrigeration engineer (a trade who uses a lot of copper pipes FYI) I always used expensive 45-55% silver brazing rods with flux meant for stainless when brazing copper-stainless. The cost of those rods were minimal compared to trying to fix a leaking 2" connection due to crappy brazing, and the brazing was always beautiful to look at after a quick rinse and a quick polish with a scotch brite. I'm new to your channel and it's really inspiring to watch your work -- cheers!

Well, you did fine for someone who ain't familiar with brazing or soldering (same method, less heat). What you can do to make it easier, is to solder the things together with silver solder. Normal plumbers solder can do, but the one with a higher silver contend will be the correct way to do it. As it ain't a construction that has any significant stress to deal with, the aforementioned plumber's solder will do. The higher silver contents the more heat is to be applied. There is no such thing than to use too much flux and generally stainless requires a bit more than copper to copper joints. I'll keep watching this project of yours and wish you good luck with it.

One of the biggest things people don't pay enough heed to is the prep. Clean the areas to be brazed and clean them some more. Sand the areas 2-3 times. Get the metals incredibly polished. You want real bright and shiny. Do the ends of the pipe, the sides (both inside and out), everything. Then put some rubber gloves on and wipe everything down real good with a solvent like acetone. Don't touch anything cleaned with your bare skin. You don't want the oil from your skin on metal. Then focus your torch on the stainless. You don't even need to put your torch on the copper if done properly. The issue is never that you didn't perform the torch work correctly. Its that it wasn't cleaned properly. Then heat that stainless. The copper should end up almost cherry red. The devil is in the details.

I think your base would be better if you did not use a heat sucking surface to rest on. Solder or brazing runs TO your heat, counter intuitive but that's how both work. Put your heat where you need your molten fluid to go, don't worry about looks till you get the hang of it, comes naturally. A job done, is a Job Well Done! I did industrial cleaning for FDA food and Pharm on process systems. Clean with TSP post work, passivate with citric. both better at hi temps (70/80C). If good flux is hard to find, electronic store has great flux for circuit boards and such, clean well not food grade. Thanks again, ran my still tonight but just not enough temp with my double boiler set up, still Chasing the craft. Gotta learn my hydrometer better. Thanks SOOO much for putting it all out there for all!

I realize that welding torches are rather expensive but they are better suited for brazing than what is commonly referred to here as a plumbers torch. The reason for that is the ability to direct the heat to a fairly specific area. Carry on, your channel is informative.

I know in a lot late on coming to the shot gun condenser. I'm not sure how much brazing you will be doing . But at some point you will have to swop out your copper work due to thining of the copper , because of the spirit contact. But to get the best results tin / butter both surfaces first . Clean them up & you will get a tight joint . Put flux on both surfaces . As well as cleaning the copper it lowers it's melting point . Also not enough heat was being put in to your places they should be cherry red . Map gas is a hot enough gas . But copper sucks the heat out so fast . Try two torches , one to brazen & one on the opposite side to you to keep the heat in your work .

@StillIt
@StillIt 7 жыл бұрын
hahaha yup! That was my thinking. I get the feeling my still will never be "finished". So I wanted to be able to work on it myself. I built an Arduino-controlled (with SSR) for a brew kettle a while back. So I am going to use the same basic plan / code to run this. I am looking into the practical side of things right now though. Dealing with higher amps etc. Looking to pick up a high amp plug second hand. Install that, run wiring and then get a to hook it up to the board.

As long as the arduino can control how many volts is sent to the element. It should not act like on/off throwing 100% power at the element. It will cause the product takeoff to run fast, then almost stop as it reaches operating temp and it powers down the element. Then it powers it back on, the cycling causes the flow to pulse. You can run a simple SSVR - Solid State Variable Relay. With a potentiometer (dimmer switch) on one element. And hardwire the other element with a on/off switch. When the boiler comes up to temp, shut off the hardwired element. Then adjust the SSVR how fast you want to takeoff product. It is just like adjusting a faucet, as long as your condenser can keep up with the heat. A complete setup: KYOTTO KR2040AX SSVR 40amps on ebay Australia is $25au
@StillIt
@StillIt 7 жыл бұрын
Thanks, Had a look at something similar to that. I may use one as a backup, or to get me up and running ASAP. Logic voltage on Arduino is either 5v or 3.3v. That controls the SSR as a "gate" for mains voltage (The SSR I have is rated at 20amp). So no problem there. The SSR would indeed be completely on or completely off. But I should be able to get it running pretty close to 50hz cycle. I hazard a guess that even if 50% power was 1/2 sec on 1/2 sec off heat stability wouldn't be a problem. Just for clarity, I am not going to be running the boiler on any PID algorithms. It will just be "manual". But will give the ability to run it as a PID later on if I have an application for it.
@BigEdsGuns
@BigEdsGuns 7 жыл бұрын
Having only run a PID with my brew pot. I too can adjust my PID power output manually. I did build a dedicated SSVR for the boiler, which I have been able to use when mashing/boiling wort for beer. But a temp controller makes the job so much easier when mashing in. You'll see after you get it running. If you can tune it in, you should not have any problems. As long as the stream is steady and consistent it will be fine. It's when it stops for 2-4 seconds then starts up with a heavy stream, then slows and stops that can yield very funky cuts. Side note: A cleaning run with water, and a alcohol run are completely different animals in performance. Cuts, another video topic... Fores, heads, hearts, tails. And what to do with them.... Another one to research "Smearing".

unfortunately, the silver solder did not wick up between the stainless and the copper. A nice bead was formed around the outside of the copper though. if you were to test the connection using a plastic mallet, the fitting would probably knock off easily. if you have ever copper soldered before the action should be the same. But no solder wicked up between the metals.

Aren't those 2 metals dissimilar? What about electrolysis? ..anyway, if you heat a spot on your rod a couple inches up from the tip, you can put a bit of a bend in the rod, like 45° or something. That bend will allow you to approach the joint at a better angle, you will then be able to add the rod in a more of a sweeping motion which will give you cleaner , smoother looking joints. ..especially if you ever want to cap your joints by laying a bead down around the entryway (for lack of a better word) of the joint. A properly capped joint really stands out . I wish we could post pics so I could show you what I mean.. anyway. Just try brazing with a bend in the end near the tip. You'll notice the positive difference right away. Just poke the tip of the rod against a solid surface to hold it steady, heat it at a spot a couple inches up from the tip and push the rod into the tip to bend.

Clean parts just before you braze oxides will start to form on the surfaces if 30 minutes have past clean again
@flyingscrapyard
@flyingscrapyard 3 жыл бұрын
Correct. Apply the flux as soon as you have mechanically removed any oxide. Oxide begins to form straight away (not in 5 minutes time). The longer you leave it after mechanically cleaning, the more the oxide will build up. Solder WILL NOT stick to oxide, no matter how hot you get it. Avoid using tools that have cleaned other items before hand as you will transfer the old contaminates to your new work. Grinding ordinary steel then grinding your still parts will contaminate your joint with iron oxides. Again, solder will not stick to oxides. Also, if you go too hot, the solder will burn and you will have to pull apart the joint, mechanically clean it and repeat. You don't have to like my advice, but that is the reality. The solder doesn't care what you think. Most of the joints in the video looked either not cleaned and fluxed properly, or the temp was wrong. If you put on enough solder, you will eventually bury the joint in metal that will seal it, but it will not be a good joint. Silver solder (245) is very good on stainless and copper, but the temps for each metal are different. I would direct more heat into the stainless as the solder was taking to the copper easily, but avoiding the stainless. Once the solder wants to wet the stainless, the temp should be right. That means you need to direct the heat more to the stainless than the copper. That said, the copper will absorb the heat from the stainless more than the other way around, so you will find the heat in the copper dissipates quickly once the heat source is removed. A big soft flame is better than a small high temp flame to give more uniform heating. The video shows a good torch to use. Use heaps of flux on both parts of the joint. Don't just coat one piece only. Where-ever the flux gets scratched off, add more flux immediately. Clean joints, lots of flux and even heating are the key to good joints. Done correctly, you will get smooth fillets at every transition from one piece to the next. That is not visible here, thought the joints may have enough solder to seal them. Good video all the same. Lots of aspects covered that are not in others.

You can get thick-walled copper pipe so the SS ferrule fits really tight into the copper pipe and you have to basically press the ferrule into the pipe making a watertight seal but be sure to seat the ferrule square in the pipe when you press it in because it will not seal good. thick-walled copper pipe is more expensive but worth it, if you are not sure test the ferrule to see that it fits really tight and snug in the pipe before you buy it, If you can't find a ferrule or pipe that fits tightly together either the ferrule flange is too small or the copper pipe wall is not thick enough.. Different SS ferrule manufacturers have different ferrule flange diameters the best way to check this is by using a large veneer caliper.

That is the most ridiculous statement I've read in quite some time !! You are aware that piping and the fittings used are certified by the ASME, ANSI and the ASTM. The ferrule flange diameters are set sizes for each size of pipe. Hard to believe in 4 years, no one has corrected this statement.

Why cant the copper ferrules be used? Soldering seems like it is easier.

I am a little out of my league here but, whilst you have been able to wick the silver solder up the tube to form a seal, you don't seem to have made a "wet" with the stainless itself (i.e. the braze hasn't flowed onto the ss and formed a bond). I could be being tricked by the video, but the following video, although an ad for a particular type of silver solder, shows what I would have thought you would have been hoping to achieve: kzfaq.info/get/bejne/qdumnq6mqru2p6s.html The issue here is if a bond hasn't been made with the ss then eventually the seal will open up when the column is moved around.

That's just the link causing that. Best to check regularly, you don't know what gems you might find. ;-) Can't help with the space unfortunately, I do mine in the laundry - bit of a pain though.

Looks like you should be putting more heat on the stainless.

What materials did you use,,,,,i believe it was a cheapo gun from ebay, what gas, and solder/braze as i'm having serious problems getting mine to heat up enough and i'm a 20 year gas welder i don't have the oxy acet i used to have, courtesy of our ISIS neighbours.....
