Continuous Stills

Despite of economical crisis some further work has been done and I am happy to admit that our continuous stills are getting a bit smaller, while there was some interest in a big machines that are capable to process enormous amounts of ferment many people were asking about some really small table top continuous still that can replace a bulky and heavy pot stills I don't want to repeat all the benefits of the continuous still over the pot still, but one benefit is obvious - size, thus the small continuous still, one meter high and 8kg of weight can replace a 500L (halve a ton) pot still, so for your primary distillation the continuous still is the must thing, on the picture you can see our latest creation: "Alex C.D/1.5" (stands for "ALcohol EXtracting Continuous Distiller 1.5kw") with this little beauty combined with Alex 25 or Alex 50 stills you can satisfy enormous thirst of all your friends, or supply your small business with all the products that can be made with distillation equipment.   The stable continuous production speed of this continuous still is 3L of 50% ethanol per hour, the still is designed to be used as a primary distiller that continuously supplies the crude ethanol for fractional distiller to make a food grade ethanol free of impurities. This still has no boiler and the same as with the bigger versions of this still the mash ,beer, or wine is always stays cool in the separate vessel even in the separate room if you want so, you don't need to reload and preheat it (preheating time is 5min) you can start or stop your distillation any convenient time for you - just switch the pump and distil as much as you need without affecting the ferment. A home made video about this still is available on the top of this page.

 The big size continuous still (video on top of the page)is the single column one that can be rearranged into one common frame that will combine two or more independent continuous columns to form a fast pace mash processing machine, the still is designed to be used with a range of heating elements: from 3kw up to 6kw depending on the electric power supply ability and the production speed needed.
