Getting Delta CUP 2.0, what type of solvent recovery would you recommend?

It all depends on how often you are running the Delta CUP. If your planning on running it 40 hours a week or a total of 600 gal of ethanol your certainly going to want to get a falling film recovery system like the Sprayvap, Trusteel, and Pinacle. Check out this thread for pricing/recovery discussion (link: Pinnacle Stainless A.E.S.)

If your not running the Delta CUP a lot or are on a budget less than $100k+ I would recommend the classic rotovap. If you preheat the ethanol solution as discussed in “Optimizing your Rotovap” (link: Optimizing your RotoVap) you can achieve recovery rates faster than the manufacturer advertises.
