Looks are critical to those of us who live in cities where people cook meth. As I scale up my BD production, I need my processor not to call attention to itself or I risk losing my house to a government seizure (in the event they mistake my project for a meth lab.)
So after I become comfortable with the 20-liter scale I may build a shallow (one drum deep) shed or (if it's in the garage) cabinet to house processor components on castered stands, similar to what Jules Dervaes did at Path to Freedom: http://www.pathtofreedom.com/pathproject/offthegrid/biodiesel.s html That way I can wheel my processor components out for use and otherwise store them out of sight and out of the weather.
