15 gal traditional copper still by Copper Still Co vinegar run and Sacrificial run
In this video I show you how I do a vinegar run and a sacrificial run on the 15 gallon traditional copper still by Copper Still Co. I also talk about the collaboration between Copper Still Co and Still'n The Clear to come up with a high quality entry level copper still for begnners.

Great video and it’s a learning curve when you’re doing something new.

Thank you. I'm glad you liked it.
That’s a good looking still…I’ll be keeping my eyes peeled for the final version.

The lyne arm will come straight out so you can add a thumper. The still will likely come standard as traditional paste cap still with worm only. With Upgrade options to add thumper, add electric port and upgrade from paste style cap to 6” trip clamp.
Great video and a beautiful 15 gal still. I been making shine for a little longer than a year and I've learned so much from you and others like phillbilly.

That's awesome. I'm glad you had a good time watching.
To clarify. Those leak spots were areas that will always need teflon tape 😉 Not a leak in the solder joints ❤
@StillnTheClear

No certainly not the solder joints. A little Teflon on the threads solved it.

Cyrus!!!! That’s a pretty unit you all are making. Great info on the blue tint. It can be discerning the first time you see it.

I’m not sure if this has been asked before. I’m building my own out of a beer keg with a 10:22 copper column and copper Liebig condenser. Now should I do both runs ??

What do you put IN the sacrificial run? Would be helpful for the newbie's to give very detailed instructions. Thanks.
Copper stills are expensive,but WELL with it

I'm sure Adam can hook you up. www.copperstillco.com
Are you putting ice in the water tank as it gets circulated? Once you guys get the whole new system worked out and all the kinks, you should go thru every aspect of the still (heat source and cleaning) and the condensing water (pump and temp). Have wanted to increase my still capacity, this might be the ticket. I don't like the plated style stills, only pot style. This looks great.

No. I don't use ice. If the water gets too warm I just replace it with cold water. We will certainly keep updates of progress.
I hope they make that in electric

Yes, In fact the one in the video has a 2" port on the side, but I forgot to mention it.
What about a thumper
@StillnTheClear
Ай бұрын
The next iteration of the still will be designed so it can be run with or without a thumper.
@copperstillco
Ай бұрын
That’ll be incorporated in the final design 😎
I dont understand why still manufacturers use those useless union connectors. Do yourself a favor and switch to sanitary fittings with Tri-clamps and silicone gaskets. They are quick to assemble and disassemble and you don't need tools. And they don't leak. But that's a very nice still for sure and they produce great liquor.
