How to make distilled spirits? Let's take a look at it today, go go go!
1-Get your equipment
Distillers work on stills. The still is connected to a condenser (a container through which cold water is run) which in turn is connected to a barrel to collect the finished distillate.
2-Clean your still
Your still must be cleaned thoroughly before every distillation. After all, you wouldn’t want the grime from the last distillation to mess up your liquor.
3-add your Alcohol and Botanicals
There are many unique distillation techniques, often developed by distillers over months and years of experimentation. But the basics remain the same: you begin by adding the botanicals and your base spirit, to the body of the still. This spirit is a fermented alcohol, usually made of grain, with no additional flavour. It’s a combination of water and pure alcohol.
4-turn up the heat
heat source–some distillers use open flames, while others use furnaces or electric heating–starts to heat the bottom of the still. Alcohol begins to boil at 73 degrees Celsius, while water won’t boil until it reaches 100 degrees. This means that the alcohol in the neutral spirit will become a gas and begin to rise while most of the
5-cool and capture
As a gas, the alcohol moves up through the still head, or the top of the pot still, or the columns of the column still. It then moves through the condenser, which is filled with cold water, where it cools down and turns back into a liquid. The final distillate trickles into the barrel, where the distiller can decide whether to keep it or return it to the still for a second round of distillation, to become an even higher-proof solution of water and alcohol.
Condensers
Water-saving and highly efficient! The pipe bundle design
ensures the maximum possible heat exchange surface. By
deploying dual and triple circuit heat exchangers, we
implement optimal heat recovery concepts and facilitate
cost-efficient production under a wide range of conditions.
CIP Cleaning System
Effective cleaning of the entire distillation unit by means of
integrated high-pressure rinsing system. Rotating all access
nozzles enable rinsing of all components, which can be
cleaned with either hot water or cleaning agents. Clean
copper surfaces guarantee the highest distillate quality.
Using the cleaning system is as simple as can be.
Alcohol Management
Integrated alcohol reservoirs for all fractions. Manually or
automatically selectable. The reservoirs are equipped with
pump control systems and level switches. The digital concentration and volume data recording for the various
fractions facilitates effective company-internal production planning.
Heating
Steam or water bath. Our high-performance units are
equipped with devices for quick and even raw material heating. The heating control can be realized either manually or
automated via pressure/temperature control systems.
Condensate or waste gas heat recovery solutions are implemented as required and tailored to the individual units.
Usually, we choose Wooden case to protect the equipment from being damaged in transit, but a few customers choose sheet iron case.
If you have interest, need details of equipment and quotation, get in touch with me freely. BTW, we also produce beer brewery equipment.
