15-liter Copper Still - Mushroom Condenser (Alembic)

The copper still with mushroom condenser is particularly suitable for the production of spirits such as grappa. It features a direct-cooling system, is made entirely of copper, and includes a thermometer to monitor boiler temperature so you can separate the heads, hearts, and tails of your distillate. Handcrafted by Italian master artisans, the base has a thickness of 1.03 mm.

As noted above, it is ideal for producing spirits (grappa, brandy, whisky, fruit distillates, etc.). The still can also be used to produce essential oils (perfumes, liqueurs, and remedies) and high-proof alcohol such as vodka.

From the options menu you can customize your copper still by adding a copper mesh or a pulp filter to prevent pomace from contacting the boiler bottom, or a filter column required for steam distillation (all accessories are copper).
