Good to know
Our 1.5 gallon onion head copper pot still brings an old-world shape to a small, hands-on bench. Rising vapor gathers in the rounded onion-head cap before it moves into the swan neck. The whole still looks like it came out of an old apothecary's workshop. It works as a still and as a showpiece.
What comes with this onion head pot still?
You get four pieces: the copper pot, the onion-head cap, the swan neck and a condenser with a thermometer port, so you can watch the temperature as the run goes.
- Built clean: 100% copper, lead-free. Every welded union is sealed with lead-free tin-silver solder for a lasting bond.
- Small batches, fast feedback: a 1.5 gallon pot lets you run a test, change one variable and run again without committing to a big wash.
- Many uses: a great fit for essential oils and distilled water. It's also built for whiskey, rum, vodka, brandy and moonshine if you hold federal TTB permits.
- Care tip: rinse it after each run and dry it well. Copper builds a patina over time, and many owners love that look.
