5 Gallon Pure Copper Alembic Still for whiskey, moonshine essential oils by Copperholic

High quality, would recommend.

Fits together nice with no leaks. Very easy to use. A few blemishes in copper. Thermostat stuck at 80 degrees during use. It is a cheap pos. I have contacted seller and received an email response within a couple of hours asking for my Amazon account number. No further communication. I think they are sending a new one but not positive. The cooling worm has 2 holes on top. 1 should be on bottom to continuously run water. Honestly I would give 5 stars if I didn’t have thermometer issues. It really is a nice looking piece.*update* thermometer replaced by seller really fast. Great customer service. I have used 8 times and works perfectly every time. Probably the best thing I have purchased on Amazon.

I just received my 5 gal still, beautiful in appearance hopefully successful as I haven’t fired it up yet. I Will Say I was disappointed with the design of Condenser’ # 1 Both the cooling water inlets are placed at the top of condenser tank, anyone with ANY EXPERIENCE knows that inlet & outlet are to be mounted at TOP & BOTTOM ! I can & will correct that relocating, but shouldn’t have to, paying top price for Quality product.#2 the lack of amount of coils in condenser allows for faster passage of steam, less contact with cooling water, better to use smaller Dia tube & more Coils, better cooling, Better volume of product !!

The worm or condenser coil could use another twist but works well. The end of the condenser coil also needs a 45 down turn ( I added one) Liquids like to travel back up the end. The condenser pot could be bigger. Yes you can put five gallons in the still but don't go past four for best results. This thing is awesome. I get so many comments on it. "Is that a....?" Yes it is. I use a flexible gun cleaning rod to clean the pipe.

These look amazing but where the swan neck meets the condenser is not tight like 1/2in goin into 3/4in only reason for a 4 star

The item arrived two days after ordering. It looks beautiful! It was very well packed and it arrived in perfect condition. I have not used it yet but it looks great, (except for the nut that attaches the thermometer which is rather bulky and does not fit with the elegant copper work) is very well made and feels solid. The parts fit together very snugly so I do not expect any leaks. I plan to use it to distill essential oils, so I was happy to see that I was able to fit a folding steam basket through the mouth of the pot. I can also confirm that the condenser does have an input and output port for the cooling water as well as a port for the dripping condensate.

I returned product and never got a refund.
