There are many choices of alcohol distiller on the market today. The most popular choice for home use is the Moonshine still. The Moonshine still is a device that can be used for distilling alcohol from herbs. There are several different types of stills including a still that boils the solution in water, a still that needs boiling water, and even vacuum stills.
Most people choose the still that uses boiling water because it is easiest to use and also provides the best results. The first step in the process is to add the materials into a sauce pan. Mixing the ingredients may require some patience and stirring is required. Add all the ingredients to the saucepan and heat to boiling. The water should be brought to a boil then the mixture heated for about 10 minutes.
Once the mixture starts to boil, you should place a measuring jug into the boiling water and gently swirl the contents to break up the thick foam. The boiling alcohol will kill any remaining bacteria in the mixture. Once you have completed the boiling process, remove the jug from the heat and cover for about 5 minutes. The mixture should be allowed to cool and then be refrigerated until you are ready to use it.
Most people choose to use a glass or stainless steel bowl to make their own moonshine still. When choosing the material, make sure that it is food-grade stainless steel with a polycarbonate covering. Stainless bowls are most recommended because they are durable and are less likely to break during the distilling process. Another good material is glass because it has a higher boiling point than stainless steel and is more resistant to breaking. Other heating methods such as the traditional stovetop or microwave are fine if you don't mind not looking at the ingredients every so often.
Some people find it more convenient to buy a food-grade stainless steel bowl, especially if they don't plan to distill any wine or spirits on-site. This is because the device is made specifically for distillation and will need something sturdy to stand up to the heat. A glass or stainless steel base is not required; however, there are models available that come with a glass or steel base. The amount of space needed to house a boiler is one of the biggest considerations when choosing a DIY still.
There are some models available in the market that include a condenser keg but most heaters include a separate five gallon basin with a built-in valve for pouring the mix into the five gallon bowl. These boilers can be purchased new or used, depending on the type of alcohol distiller you purchase and the amount of space needed to house the unit. The price range of these units is dependent on the brand and model; however, they all cost around $200. You can also opt to rent a boiler but this option may not be available in every location.
