A recirculation pump would keep the tank stirred. The added benefit is that the boiler can be closed and have it's steam vented through a heat exchanger to condense steam and smells. A clever design could probably use the incoming cold oil (in tubes of course) to condense the steam. If the

Steven, A simple counterflow exchanger is a pipe inside a pipe. Copper, 1/2 inside 1 for exammple. It needs to be long enough that the heat transfer is complete, flow rate and Delta T determines length, ie- a slower flow and low Delta T can use short pipes, High flow and high Delta T may
