Good to know
Generations of Appalachian still builders would recognize this 20 gallon copper still with thumper and worm, though they might envy the 4" instant-seal cap on top. It's a full rig, ready to run: a heavy 22 gauge copper pot, a 2.8 gallon thumper and a 2.8 gallon worm, all shaped by hand from food-safe, lead-free copper.
Why choose a 20 gallon copper pot still with an instant-seal cap?
Because sealing should be the easy part. The 4" instant-seal cap closes clean and tight, leaving your attention free for the run itself. From there, the classic chain does its work. Heat lifts vapor out of the pot, the thumper gives it another pass, and the worm cools it back to liquid, where you read the flow and separate your cuts.
- Heavy 22 gauge copper: built the way good distillery equipment ought to be.
- Matched 2.8 gallon thumper and worm: sized to work together from the first run.
- Room to grow: we can add a fruit port to the thumper if you'd like to experiment with fruit or spices.
- Many uses: a dependable setup for whiskey, rum, brandy or moonshine.
