Can you put mead into an air still? I'm a beekeeper, I have an experiment fermenting atm, apple juice and honey 😂 see how it goes, but plan on making a batch of basic mead soon. If I got an air still, once the mead finished fermenting, could I put it in there? Thanks
How many ceramic saddles do you add?
Hi where can I get the basket for the airstill
would love see way make RAKI or ARAK in arabic that its clear and if mixed with water become white milky with dry anise seeds , or if you have a guide for it . love you videos
Made clear ouze clear till you add water but out of still at 55% litre facebook.com/groups/545848482619401/?ref=share
The left over wash that you poured away, is it really extracted of all usable alcohol and how do you know, if you distill for longer, that you're not running the still dry?
I'm starting to have second thoughts as it seems that the author of the page has died unexpectedly. I'm still waiting for a reply!
I have one of these. I ran it as a test for 3 hours, the last hour I got minimal alcohol off. There was loads ( approx 2 liter liquid left over). No point in running and running. Get nothing for the electricity used.
I've tried putting the carbon cartridge in the machine with vinegar while cleaning the machine roughly 200 ml vinegar and re used the cartridge and it worked very well :)
how do you know how much to extract from the distillation?
Stop around 40 proof
Is it ok to make alcohol like this in the UK? I have been home brewing for over 4 years, but fancy trying my hand at spirits
Sure, it is OK to distill spirits in the UK. The small problem is that it is illegal! Reason 1 is that HMRC want their duty and will regulate ( inspect you). Reason 2 Sometimes what you make is poisonous - read about Methanol and other fractions.
How long does one session take?
You’ll use 4 litres per session which will take approx. 2 hours. Remember you will have you’ll have approx. 6 sessions (25 ltr wash) so approx. 12 hours total.

I would use distilled water not tap water
Can you get it over 60% in the air still?
I get 68%
Yes but need to double distill had 85% take a look here facebook.com/groups/545848482619401/?ref=share
Ahhhhh i did 800ml and was NOT %60 but %40
I have one more option for you. A more intense pre-infusion by adding already infused fresh botanicals back into your Air Still. By using your base alcohol that you've just made mixed with your botanicals and running it through either a Pressure or Whipping Syphon that uses no2 cartridges or a Coffee Syphon that uses an alcohol burner. If you want to get fancy about it, you can use the syphons to first infuse each botanical separately, then custom blend that last mix into the Air Still for a final distillation.
You don't seem to have a thermometer on the still head and you don't discard the head and you haven't tested for methanol. Isn't that really dangerous?
Use the correct products, turbo yeast etc and it won't product the dangerous bits. So no need to discard anything. Just don't take more than 800ml, after that it tastes pants.
What temp are you running at from start to finish, and you get 800ml from the original 4 liters
Have you tried adding fruit in a Muslim bag while it’s running to add flavor?
Interesting but wouldn't it burn on the bottom possibly?
You can use the mesh he shows that fits in the top of the air still & put botanicals in that

In just curious mate if you add 400ml of water to 800ml of 60% Alcohol water doesn't it make it 30% alcohol because you diluted it by half/50% I'm pretty good at science and well all the videos on this are still seem to be WRONG, Explain to me why I'm wrong if I am 👍🇦🇺
Minelab pilbara Gold Prospecting TM you’re increasing total volume by a third, so lose a third of the alcohol, if you added 800ml water then it would be 30 %
800 ml @ 60% ABV = 480 ml of alcohol
Add 400 ml water = 1200 ml total volume, with the same 480 ml of alcohol
The same 480 ml alcohol is now 40% of the new 1200 ml total volume ( 1200 ml X 40% = 480 ml)
He does show that 60% turns into 40% with 400ml water added.
