This alembic still is a copper-and-stainless distillation unit built for craft producers who run small batches of spirits, brandy, vodka, whiskey and fruit eaux-de-vie. The four-column tower stacks reflux plates above a pure-copper pot, so the vapor is rectified as it rises — the copper strips sulfur compounds while the extra columns tighten the cut, giving a cleaner distillate than a plain pot still. It suits distillery R&D benches, tasting-room demos, restaurants and bars that produce house spirits, and pilot runs before scaling to a production line.
Pot and columns in pure copper; frame and fittings in 304 stainless steel.
Available in 20 L, 30 L and 65 L boiler capacities.
Electric control with a 220 V supply; also runs on direct heat over an open flame or an induction plate.
Condenser, distillation head and heating stage as one integrated tower.
Because the same design scales across three capacities, a venue can start with the 20 L unit for experimentation and repeat proven recipes on the 65 L without changing technique. Contact us to confirm the plate count and fitting sizes for your process.
For home distillers and hobbyists, the copper alembic still turns a corner of the kitchen or garage into a small workshop for spirits, fruit brandy and distilled water. The 20 L size is the friendly starting point — light enough to move, simple to run on an induction plate, and the polished copper tower looks the part on display between runs. Check your local regulations before distilling alcohol at home.

Frequently asked questions
What is a copper alembic still used for?
It distills spirits, brandy, vodka, whiskey and wine-based liquors, and can also produce distilled water. The copper pot and columns react with sulfur compounds to give a cleaner distillate than a plain stainless pot still.
Why does the still use copper instead of only stainless steel?
Copper actively removes sulfur-based off-flavors from the vapor during distillation, which is why traditional stills are copper. This unit pairs a pure-copper pot and columns with a 304 stainless steel frame for durability and easy cleaning.
What capacities does the alembic still come in?
Three boiler sizes are available: 20 L, 30 L and 65 L. Select the capacity that matches your batch volume; the design is the same across all three, so technique carries over as you scale up.
How is the still heated?
It runs on a 220 V electric control, and can also be heated directly over an open flame or on an induction cooker. Contact us to confirm the setup for your power supply.
Does the still come with a warranty?
Yes — it is backed by a 1-year manufacturer warranty. Machinery test reports and outgoing-inspection video are provided before shipment.
How long does delivery take?
Standard units typically ship within about 7 days. Customized configurations depend on the specific build — contact us to confirm your lead time.
Is shipping included in the price?
For in-stock items — anything you can add to the cart — shipping is included in the listed price. For made-to-order items, delivery is either free (marked on the product page) or calculated when you place your order, based on destination and volume.
How long does delivery take?
In-stock items typically arrive within one to three weeks. Made-to-order items take three to six weeks, since we work directly with manufacturers and need time for production and logistics before shipping. Your assigned manager confirms a more precise estimate once your order is placed. Please note we can't be responsible for delays caused by customs clearance in the destination country.
Are import duties and taxes included?
In most cases, yes — we aim to ship Delivered Duty Paid (DDP), which means duties and import taxes are handled so you don't face extra charges on delivery. In rare cases we may ship Delivered Duty Unpaid (DDU), where you would settle import charges directly with the carrier — but only when agreed with you in advance.
Do your products come with a warranty?
Yes. Most of our equipment comes with a one-to-two-year manufacturer's warranty covering factory defects and technical faults under normal use; the specific term is stated on each product page. If a defect appears, we arrange a replacement or refund in line with our Exchange & Return Policy, and our team guides you through the claim step by step.
