VEVORAlcohol Still, 13 Gal/50L Alcohol Distiller, Distillery Kit for Alcohol with 304 Stainless Steel Tube & Circulating Pump & Build-in Thermometer & Exhaust Port for DIY Whisky Wine Brandy

Used to distill waterFor the price, I love it! Hydrometer was broke (I’ve got better ones anyway) and thermometer is upside down when installed, I can still read it tho. Not too sure how long the gasket will last. Also can’t find much info on how the vent works to let out impurities, I’ve always just used the the head as a fun fire started…. Still going to get rid of the first bit just in case.No leaks, no overflow of water in condenser, mostly easy to clean. Welds and metal work look pretty good, again, for the price.Love the shape of the lid, the clamp connection to the condenser, false bottomOverall, I’m very happy with what I got from China

The perfect size for my homebrewing needs (8gallon/~32 liters) and comes as a complete kit so check out the list of included supplies(including a water pump). Everything arrived in good shape and packaging with no damaged parts noted. I have not used it but have assembled all parts to get a working idea of how to use and I find that there are no problems and everything fits well and the lid or dome top is quite nice construction. Great companion book that all the recipes match up with a 8 gallon pot is "The Joy of Home Distilling: The Ultimate Guide to Making Your Own Vodka, Whiskey, Rum, Brandy, Moonshine, and More (Joy of Series) by Rick Morris "

Looking for a new hobby, and this might be at this still looks really remarkable. Very good value. I’m gonna make apples into bandy.

Great looking still. Will update once I use it. Hydrometer broken upon arrival, but I don't really care because I have a couple already. Includes lots of extra stuff that I didn't expect..cheesecloth for straining mash, air lock for fermenting in pot.

Works as described

Fundamental flaw: the circulating water for the condenser will quickly get to the 120 to 195 degrees depending on the length of time.At two hours of operation it will he over 175 degrees.Issue: the pumps are rated for max 95 degrees.So the pumps will not last, the supplied pump lasted for a total of 3 hours of operation and stopped working.I bought another pump and tried circulating 5 gallons and also 10 gallons hoping to reduce the water high temperature. A larger volume of water does slow the heating of the water but not enough to make a material difference. This pump also died as it was operated outside the parameters of design.So the manufacturer is using a pump not designed for such an application and I cannot find a pump that is.If you buy from amazon there is NO support from manufacturer.

The product arrived earlier than expected.I expected a fair product for the price, and was very pleased to find a excellent distillation unit, the stainless is thicker than I expected and it is well made. 😎

This item is great! It is simple and fun. After having lived in the Middle East for many Years I mastered the art of distilling my/our own booze, with home-made stills.. It was fun. I decided to continue my old hobby here. Buying equipment like this may soon be band (California). So, Buy one of these now while you can..
