    I remember watching your laser videos when you were under 100k subs and always thought this was the best tech/science channel on YT. I have less than 10 channels with full notifications on and you have always been one of them, can't wait to see what you come up with at 1mil subs and beyond!

    I am a Chemical Engineer— this short vid is worth two semesters of Distillation classes. So you might pursue getting it to some colleges to try out. You would help a lot of students. You are 10times clearer on this topic than any Professor I had in college.
  • @skydivekrazy76
    The fact that you still read comments with this number of subs just proves you are a mad genius... Thanks for what you do!

    You read every comment huh? Read this: Your channel is amazing!! The education industrial complex should be ashamed & embarrassed. If school would have been like this, I wouldn't have dropped out and started working fulltime at fourteen. My life would have been different. From the projects pick, to the work space you work in, to your clearly genius level IQ problem solving, and then, if that weren't enough, you have such a good communication style. Props to your camera/sound/lighting folks too. Thanks for sharing! One thing to please keep in mind, as you get more subs and can afford better equipment... not all of us are millionaires. Just to be clear, please continue to make your projects somewhat duplicatable for the average guy.
  • Amazing job, sir! As a chemical engineer, I am speechless by the way of explanation of the material. Bravo!
  • There is so much junk science out there it's refreshing to find great content delivered calmly and professionally. Thank you
  • The best tech ingredient for any tech researcher is the alcohol ingredient in their weekend drinks
  • @markos9897
    I was searching for hours for a video to clearly explain how column stills work and was getting half baked junk. You guys rock! Watching the video is pure pleasure, thank you so much for taking the time!
  • @Hermanhusband
    What is most sobering is his ability to lecture with almost no edits with a smooth, even flow

    I have a BS in Chem Eng (1981) and you did a better job of explaining distillation than did my ChE and Chemistry profs. Great job!
  • @JaaaaaaaC
    i learned more from you and your videos in 2 years than i learned through all my years in a public school science class.
  • As a home distiller from South Africa I find your explanations so interesting and informative! The science behind it all lends such an appreciation of the art and hobby. I can hear my sugar wash bubbling away which I want to use as a firs run on my 2 inch reflux column. Thank you for the awesome channel!

    1st view. You are an amazing teacher. You remind me of my fluids professor that was an amazing mentor. Thanks for everything you do. You provide REAL content!
  • @johnnydrac
    Why did i never have a teacher like you in school .. i cant even begin to describe who much i love this channel .. you are SO great at explaining and showing stuff.. and i find the videos to be way to short most of the times.. not because you lack describing something but because i could listen to you talking about all of what you do for AGES .. !! thank you so much for all of what you share.. it is SO interesting and fascinating
  • My favorite thing about this channel is that he constantly reminds me why I love engineering. It's a skill that gives you enormous insight into the basic principles behind most everything humans use or make. You might not be an expert at everything, but you can approach nearly anything and get a reasonable understanding of the process pretty quickly. Once you understand the process, you can adapt almost anything you find to do almost anything you want.

    I’ve watched a number of similar demonstrations and this is the first time I feel like I understand the details. Thanks for explaining everything!
  • @mafhper
    I feel guilty for not paying to watch such good quality material. thank you for your effort my dear comrade. Greetings from Brazil.
  • I can safely give these videos a thumbs up before i even watch them. The information is always incredibly impressive and useful.
  • This is how people learn. I wish I could afford to pay this man or some one similar to personally teach / tutor my children five days a week. What a wonderful education experience that would be.
  • @ihorstep
    I have finally found a video where the still explained so thoroughly and comprehensibly. It always good when the whole process is demonstrated in real time action with corresponding notes. Thank you very much! Hope your channel will reach 1M subs soon!
