Good to know
For the big runs, a 13 gallon onion-head copper pot still lets you work with a full charge and keep that old mountain character. Ours is hand-built from heavy copper, every seam is locked down with lead-free tin-silver solder, and we never use brass. This is serious equipment with the soul of the old craft.
Who is a 13 gallon onion-head copper pot still built for?
It's for distillers who already know their process and want more volume per session, whether that's batches of essential oils, distilled water, or spirits made under a license.
- Package includes: the copper boiler, time-honored onion-head dome, swan neck and a condenser fitted with a thermometer port.
- Plan your space: a full 13 gallon boiler is heavy. Set it on a solid, level base, keep the area ventilated, and never leave a running still unattended.
- Fine control at scale: large charges respond slowly to heat changes. Make small adjustments and give the thermometer time to tell you what happened.
- Built for the long haul: regular rinsing and drying keeps the copper healthy run after run.
Owning a still is legal in the US. Whiskey, rum, brandy and moonshine require federal TTB permits before the first drop. Want to talk about heat sources or setup for a still this size? Contact us and we'll help you get it right.
