Your Ally for Traditional Distillation
The copper still is the ideal tool for those who wish to engage in artisanal distillation. With a capacity of 5 liters, it is perfect for home production of:
- Wine distillates: cognac, armagnac, pisco, and brandy
- Grappa from grape pomace (skins and seeds)
- Grape brandy from must
- Calvados from cider
- Rum and cachaça from sugarcane
- Whiskey, gin, and white spirits from grains
- Distillates from roots, tubers, various fruits
Why Choose Copper? The Exclusive Advantages
Our stills are entirely made of copper and handcrafted to ensure the best quality at the best price. Copper is not a random choice:
- Beneficial chemical reaction: sulfur compounds present in the pomace chemically bond with copper, improving the quality of the distillate
- Excellent thermal conductor: distributes heat evenly across the surface, preventing burning of the distilling mass. It melts at 1083°C, so it withstands high temperatures and thermal shocks
- Maximum resistance: copper perfectly resists alcoholic vapors, acids from pomace and fruit, without corrosion
- Purity of flavor: does not impart any metallic taste and naturally neutralizes unpleasant odors and flavors
How the Distillation Process Works
The still consists of a boiler (which holds the pomace), an airtight cap from which a tube called the "swan neck" emerges. The vapors rise through this tube until they reach a water-cooled coil, where they condense and return to liquid, producing your distillate.
The Three Stages of Traditional Distillation
The boiling temperature of ethyl alcohol (78.4°C) is crucial for the batch process:
- Head (initial vapors): up to 78.4°C, methanol, acetaldehyde, and ethyl acetate develop, easily recognizable by their unpleasant odor. This fraction is toxic and must be discarded immediately (methanol can cause severe damage to the optic nerve, leading to blindness)
- Heart (78.4°C - 100°C): this is the prized part of the distillate, rich in ethyl alcohol and volatile substances that provide aroma and taste
- Tail (over 100°C): not dangerous to health but contains impurities and amyl oils with unpleasant taste and odor
Simple and Safe Infusions
If you prefer to avoid legal complications, you can create extraordinary infusions starting from bottled grappa or alcohol for liqueurs: nocino, honey grappa, blueberry grappa, and much more, with total freedom.
Important Information
- Attention: the still does not have an integrated thermometer, so it requires constant attention during use
- Initial Cleaning: it is essential to perform an initial cleaning distillation to eliminate impurities and unwanted substances from the copper, especially after long periods of inactivity
- Capacity: 5.00 liters
