Still types

Each type is drawn as a ready build from the builder. Open it, change it, calculate it in the passport and pick the parts.

Pot still and distillerA pot still separates a wash by boiling: the boiler heats it, the vapour rises and the condenser turns it back into liquid. Alcohol boils before water, so the distillate is stronger than the wash. Reflux columnA reflux column separates alcohol from everything else: on the packing the vapour condenses and boils again many times, the dephlegmator sends most of it back down, and the draw is small. The result is clean spirit with almost no taste of the raw material. Wash columnA wash column distils the wash straight in the column: the dephlegmator sends part of the vapour back down, so one run gives a stronger distillate than a plain boiler while the taste of the raw material stays. Continuous wash columnA continuous column distils without stopping: the wash runs down over the trays while steam from the generator rises to meet it. Stillage leaves at the bottom, distillate at the top. Steam-jacketed mash kettleThis kettle heats the mash through a jacket with steam or water between the walls, so grain does not scorch on the bottom and the rests are easy to hold.
