Brian, As one of those that read your post and didn't respond, at least to say welcome, I apologize. I am still in the process of making test batches to learn what I am doing and gathering parts to build my first processor, fairly heavily based on the fumeless processor of Mark's design. I am far too new to this to contribute to designing a dream processor. However, if you are able to make conical bottom stainless tanks with holes designed to accomodate immersion heaters, lines, etc., and start marketing same in the future, I will likely be one of your customers. I got a quote from one company for such a monster but with a flat bottoms. Can't afford their prices right now, so I'm using a steel barrel with an anti-rust coating inside instead. Once I find how this works, I may have some input to your question. I just don't know yet if it will be what to try or what not to try.
