Our complete distilling system is the perfect option for craft distilleries wanting to make a range of spirits without compromising. Install once and never have to reconfigure the system to switch from a whiskey run to a vodka run. Other stills need to be broken down and rebuilt depending on what spirit is being made; switching between spirits on this multi-column still is as easy as opening and closing a few valves. With an infusion column, 4-plate copper column, and 16-plate stainless column, this unit can make any spirit you desire—gin, rum, vodka, whiskey, brandy, tequila—our still does it all!

Wash Pot

The steam-jacketed Wash Pot has a gross volume of 1400L, allowing for a maximum working volume of 1200L with a 15% headspace inside the pot. The kettle features an analog thermometer and PT100 relay probe in the headspace, pressure gauge and relief valve, raked bottom for thorough draining, and manway with sight glass to monitor your wash boil. From the kettle, vapor rises through the copper onion-shaped expansion chamber, through the lyne arm, and into the column manifold.

Columns & Routing Vapor

The column manifold features a series of 3-way valves that route vapor into or past each column. For example, during a vapor infusion run, while making gin, you would route the vapor into the infusion column to pass through any botanicals you've added to the gin basket, and then bypass the copper 4-plate column, bypass the steel 16-plate column, and route the vapor to the product condenser. Conversely, for the highest purity neutral spirit, you bypass the infusion column and route the vapor through the copper 4-plate column and steel 16-plate column before entering the condenser. The beauty of this system is how easily you can adapt it to the type of spirit you want to produce. Simply bypass columns or close off individual plates as needed.

Clean-In-Place

As mentioned above, this distillation system truly is a one-time installation with no breakdown required—when it comes to making different spirits and cleaning. Each part of the system, from the kettle to the condenser and each plate features a CIP spray ball for convenient and thorough cleaning. The included CIP pump is powerful enough to clean an entire column at once, or you can flip the valves to clean individual plates if desired.

Important Note: You will need to add a power supply for the pump and agitator (3 phase, 220V), pressure regulator for steam, and plumbing for the condenser's water source.
