Commercial Distilling Equipment: What's Needed?

 

A mash tun is a crucial vessel in the craft distillery business, the mash tun aids in the mashing process to convert starch into sugar, making fermentation possible. Though not a requisite, we would recommend sizing your mash tun at least as large as your distillation kettle.

Fermenters are an important element to the craft liquor making process, maintaining optimal conditions for micro-organism growth. Degong offers a variety of single-walled or cooling-jacketed fermenters, both made of durable, high-quality stainless steel.

 

Still - Depending on whether you plan on staying traditional or isolating more flavors, you need to decide between a pot still and a reflux column. A pot still consists of a big pot, swan neck, and condenser. Degong copper helmets can be used modularly on our kettles to replicate the more traditional pot still. We stock the whiskey helmets but they can be customized to your specific needs. On the other hand, the Degong reflux column configuration is a column that utilizes copper plates and caps, a bend, and condensers. The reflux column works so that the more distilling plates you have, the more distillation cycles the vapor goes through creating purer alcohol. The opposite can be said with fewer plates. Fewer plates equal more flavorful alcohol.
