I own your 8 & 16 gallon pots and I love them!
I chose your 8 gallon, 2" dual purpose. Had a little help from George 😉 Im using right now actually, love it 👍👍 Thanks a bunch !
Damn good unit, brother. I'm glad you like it! I haven't personally run the one piece Dual Purpose, but the Dual Purpose Pro is my baby, I love running them.
I have a 8 gallon still, with a 2" column [packing with both porcelin rings and copper woll]
and it came with the herb basket for essence oils.
I love it!
I'm interested in brandy mostly but looking into the 8 gallon or 16 gallon multi purpose still. I was given the advice of going 1 size bigger than you think you want so you don't have to upgrade later. My question is how do the baskets compare to a thumper for flavor? I was set on a thumper from the start but the baskets sound nice as well. Thanks for your guidance.
Hey, man! We're actually doing a video on brandy within the month or so, so you should like that video. I agree with the advice to move up one size bigger. I started with an 8 gallon and let me just say your neighbors get a little more friendly when you get a machine. So, it's always good to have extra. You can make some phenomenal flavor stuff through a basket. We made a pumpkin spiced rum last year on this channel through a basket and it was absolutely packed with flavor. I think Thumpers get you a ton of flavor at the added benefit of it coming out smoother the first run. You can always run a machine with a basket multiple times (stripping runs, then a spirit run) to emulate, but if you want a flavorful spirit that's smooth first pass, I personally think the Thumper takes that crown.
@milehidistilling1 Definitely appreciate the heads up on the brandy episode coming up. The world could burn down and ill still be there to watch it and take in the great information. I was originally looking at getting a 8 gallon pro setup with a thumper to be able to distill whatever i wanted. Now im saving up and trying to decide between the 16 gallon or 26 gallon. The 26 seems big but i dont always have to do full capacity runs if i want a smaller amount but also have the capacity for when i do want the larger runs. I also saw you guys came out with Helmets now and have added to my 'wish list' as well. 😄😄😄
@@damunchman3120 That's commitment man! You'd walk through fire and flames for our videos? Wow, much appreciated hahah! Yeah great point on the 26 gallon. You actually don't have to run full batches in the 26 gallon. If you're using internal heating, you have a minimum batch size of 13 gallons or if you're running propane or external heat, you can even do something as small as a 5 gallon batch or less in the system without issue., so it's nice for both full batches and smaller test runs. There's about a $200 difference between the 16 and 26 gallon boiler, so it's not a huge jump in pricing, but I feel like you'd be happy with either for sure!
So I couldn't hear it to well my 8 gallon with 2 inch if I upgraded to 3 inch tower would it cut my time to half?
Exactly, having that extra inch in diameter will essentially cut your run time in half
You need meter system....useless video for me the European
