Description

Copper bubble plate column produces higher proof distillate in a single run
Borosilicate glass section can be removed to use the column as a pot still for gin, whiskey, rum, and other flavored spirits
Modular, tri-clamp design for easy modification and break down for cleaning
Capable of producing up to 96% ABV distillate

This professional-level distillation column features a modular borosilicate glass body that allows you to watch the progress of your distilling run. It features a 4" tri-clamp connection point which can be attached to the heavy-duty Pro Sight Glass Distillation Lid. Perfectly suited to making up to 96% ABV distillate with 3000w to 3500w of power, and therefore we recommend pairing this column with the 65L BrewZilla or DigiBoil to complete the still. The modular design allows you to remove the borosilicate glass column and run it as a pot still for gins, whiskeys, grappa, brandy, and rums.

This column is recommended for intermediate to advanced hobbyist distillers entering the commercial sector who want to a visual indicator of how the still is performing. New distillers are best suited to learn the basics with the AlcoEngine Reflux and AlcoEngine Pot Still range before venturing up to different types of distillation.

This distillation kit is Cooling Management still, whereas the AlcoEngines are Liquid Management stills that restrict the flow of distillate, forcing a desired reflux ratio. With this design you are controlling the input of water to the RC component on the column to knock down vapors to fill the bubbler plates, taking on a small portion of the lightest vapors first and condensing them back into liquid as your final distillate.

How The Bubble Plate Column Works:
Vapor will come into contact with the plates and caps inside the column, causing the vapor to condense back into a liquid. This will happen at the very top of the still where the RC cooler will knock that vapor back into a liquid, causing a reflux action. As the liquid then falls down from bubbler cap to bubbler cap, the liquid that falls is eventually forced back up through the plates again. This process of being forced to run through the caps and plates multiple times creates an end product that has essentially been distilled multiple times in a single run, meaning you can get higher proof alcohol when compared to an empty column. The bubble plates perform a similar function as the copper packing in a hybrid column, but does so more efficiently. When running a bubble plate column, the first run will start in the range of 72.5%-85%. Depending on the quality of the wash, you can reach up to 95%-96% ABV, the highest-grade ethanol you can distill.

Please note: There is no instruction manual. This is deemed a commercial unit for those with a license to produce alcohol. We take no responsibility for your failure to comply with your state/local legislation.
