Who is an 8 gallon copper pot still made for?
It suits distillers who already know the basics and want bigger runs with the classic alembic look. More volume means more time to watch each phase and more to sort through when you make your cuts.
- Includes the copper pot, onion-head cap, swan neck and a condenser with thermometer port.
- All welded unions are sealed with lead-free tin-silver solder for a lasting bond.
- Copper conducts heat well and reacts with sulfur compounds in the vapor. Those are two reasons it's still the traditional metal for distilling.
- Give a new still a cleaning run before you first use it, then rinse and dry it after every session.
Heat, vapor and copper are your raw materials. Your notes and your judgment are the method. It's the alchemist's craft and the scientist's discipline in one hobby. The still is backed by our 2-year warranty. Owning a still is legal in the US, and it's useful for distilled water, essential oils and fuel alcohol. Making spirits requires federal TTB permits.
