  • The truth is we do it for you! There is no welding, soldering or fabricating required on our stills! Most stills that are offered for sale are flimsy and made out of cheap 16 ounce roofing copper.

Those moonshine stills will not hold up. Every still we build is constructed out of thick 20 ounce 99.9% pure copper. This is the best copper money can buy. All of our moonshine stills have a very high amount of silver content. We use only lead free brass on our thumper caps.

  • This still can be shipped your home or business.
  • The thumper features a screw cap constructed out of lead free brass.
  • This can be used adding material when you are brewing.
  • Of course bypass tubes are included just in case you prefer not to use the screw cap.

How much moonshine will a 13 gallon still produce?

Let’s start with our most popular tower, the Dual Purpose alcohol moonshine distiller: – The Dual Purpose is an all-around great piece of equipment. It’s named because obviously it has two purposes. It can be ran as a pot still for whiskies or brandies, and as a reflux still for high purity spirits.

An 8 Gallon Dual Purpose,A 13 Gallon Dual Purpose,An 8 Gallon two-piece Dual Purpose,An 8 Gallon Dual Purpose with a Gin Basket And an 8 Gallon Copper Dual Purpose.

The 8 Gallon will hold about 6.5 Gallons of a distilling wash, making about 1 gallon of distillate, while the 13 Gallon holds close to 10 Gallons. Really, what it comes down to when picking the right Dual Purpose, is how much you’re looking to make. An 8 Gallon will make about a quart of distillate per hour and you’ll end up with about a gallon to a gallon and a half of product when finished.

  1. The 13 will work at the same output (a quart an hour) but end up producing around two gallons to two and a half gallons.
  2. This is estimated and depends on what the alcohol by volume ( ABV ) that is in the wash and what proof you want to run.
  3. Final yield also depends on your cuts.
  4. See blog article about making cuts.

For the two-piece, the only difference is it’s with the removable bottom extension, which will make it better when making whiskey, as the shorter column carries over more flavor. If you’re looking for a tower that can do both neutral spirit making and whiskey/brandy making but would like to emphasize more on whiskey making, this is a great option for you.

  • Even better for moonshiners looking to emphasize on making whiskey while having the freedom of neutral spirit is the Copper Dual Purpose looks sweet and has more copper in the vapor path.
  • This is great when making neutral spirit, brandies, and whiskies.
  • The copper dual is a beautiful tower with all the capabilities of the stainless steel one, but adds the benefit of more copper to pass through during your run.

The copper dual comes stock with an upgraded thermometer as well which gives a higher-end look. The Dual with Gin Basket is a reflux fractionating column that breaks down into three different parts. A bottom extension with a reflux jacket built in will start off the column.

How full do you fill a moonshine still?

STEP 4 – Second Steam Clean –

  • Fill your still about 50% with water, seal it up, and bring it to a boil.
  • Leave the condenser water off in the beginning until steam starts coming out of the distillate outflow.
  • Let it run for 3 to 5 minutes, before turning on the condenser water.
  • Let the run continue until you recover about 25% of the water you placed inside the boiler.
  • Turn off the gas or element and let the still cool down before opening and rinsing out.
  • If you still smell linseed oil or see it in the distillate, do not be worried – you should notice that it is by now much less prominent or detectable.

How much grain do I need for 5 gallons of mash?

Procedure: – Heat 5 gallons of mash water up to 165F. Turn off heat when target temperature is reached and stir in the 8.5 pounds of corn. Stir the mash continuously for about 5 minutes then stir for a few seconds every five minutes until the temperature drops to 152F.

Once the target temp is met, stir in the malted barley. Cover and leave it be for about 90 minutes, uncovering only to stir every 15 minutes or so. At this point all of the starches should be converted into sugar. Leave it sit for a few hours or use an immersion chiller to cool the mash to 70 degrees. At 70 degrees, add yeast, aerate (by dumping back and forth between two containers), cap, and add an air lock.

In a week or two fermentation will be complete. Leave it settle for another week and it will be ready to distill. Siphon into still. Make sure to leave yeast and other sediment behind.
