Good to know
What would you distill if you had room for bigger batches? With the 8 gallon mushroom top copper pot still, the list is long: whiskey, rum, vodka, brandy, moonshine, essential oils and more. A broad mushroom cap and swan neck rise from a 100% copper pot. It's a working piece of art rooted in old-world craft.
Is an 8 gallon copper still good for essential oils?
Yes. A bigger pot holds more plant material per run, and that matters because herbs and flowers give only small amounts of oil. Copper spreads heat evenly, which makes the process easier to manage.
- Components: copper pot, mushroom-top cap, swan neck, and a condenser with thermometer port.
- Construction: 100% copper, with every welded union sealed in lead-free tin-silver solder.
- Measure it: put a thermometer in the port and record temperatures next to what you collect.
- Keep it bright: clean it right after each run and dry it well before storing.
Each batch is an experiment in heat, vapor and timing, and the results are yours to improve. Our 2-year warranty backs the still. Owning a still is legal in the US, and it can also make distilled water and fuel alcohol. Making spirits requires federal TTB permits. Curious how it compares with the onion head version? Ask us.
