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, and has a thickness of 1 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).
