Every good experiment starts with a heat source you trust. This 6 gallon Advanced Model runs on 110V electric heat, so there's no propane tank and no open burner. You get copper, current, and your own careful attention. It's sold as a complete still from $999, and it's built for people who'd rather learn by watching vapor turn back into liquid than read about it.
Why 110V suits a first lab
A 110V still works with the kind of power most homes already have. That makes it a natural fit for a garage bench or workshop where you want to stay close to the process. Electric heat lets you think like a scientist. Change one thing, watch what happens, write it down, and do it better on the next run.
Copper does the quiet work
Distillers have used copper for generations because it reacts with vapor as it moves through the still. You don't have to be a metallurgist to appreciate it. You just need to notice the difference it makes. That's the alchemy part: a pot of liquid, steady heat, and a metal that plays its own role in what comes out the other end.
A good size for learning
Six gallons is enough to run real experiments without a huge batch on the line. It's a smart place to build skill before stepping up to a larger still.
This listing says "complete," but if you'd like the exact parts list before you order, call the family shop at 603-997-6786. A real person will answer.
Owning a still is legal in the US. Distilling alcohol requires federal (TTB) permits. Stills are also used for water and essential oils. Always follow federal, state, and local law.
