    Vevor sent me this 5 gallon still to try out and run some moonshine on.
    For the price it's hard to pass up if you want a little stove top still.

    my wife just got me a 13 gallon still just like that. pretty nice. I ended up not using that little worm. I modified a 5 gallon stainless pot with a 20ft copper worm instead and then custom built a kitchen setup for my still on my property. turned out nice. it motivated me to build a whole moonshine shack on our cabin property. made for a great Father's day for me. love your videos.

      John I too have the 13 gallon Vevor and am worried it’s too big for what I need. What’s the minimum wash you can put in your 13 gallon pot? Also what heat source are you using in the house with that size pot? I’d love to chat with you sometime as you did exactly what I want to do. Thanks Rick.

      @@rickalford there is no minimum but in reality id say dont run it lower than 30-40% depending on heat source and its both efficiency and its ability to cover the whole bottom of your still as if it creates hot spots you will burn much quicker on a small amount vs a large amount really depends on heat source I personally use a double burner setup thats one of those plug in too the outlet cook tops I loved the vevor first couple runs but after that I feel like vevor shafted me with how much is going wrong after keeping clean af everything that can rust or corrode has been doing so mid run after the first couple runs... and i was offered a 20$ credit for their fk ups moving on lesson learned build a still along with my own custom electric burner setup to fuel it

    Just made me a Christmas list. I've seen the adds for this still and glad I found this review. This is something I wanna learn to do and figured I'd be smart and get something small to see if I like it before dropping $2500 on a big copper still

    Beer homebrewer exploring the idea of distilling. Very interesting!!! I will look at your previous videos to see how this is done. Very interested in such an affordable point of entry into the hobby. This still sells at Home Depot!!! Will learn more before I purchase anything. Of course, as a beer maker, I'm interested in making whisky, so I have much more to learn before I buy anything but this video was very helpful. Thank you! You've got a new subscriber! 😁

  • @kodyhouston207
    @kodyhouston207 ปีที่แล้ว +12

    I bought that still a year ago when I first started distilling and I have learned a bunch from using it and make pretty damn decent liquor with it that's for sure I make 10 gallons of mash at a time run a stripping run at 3 gallons at a time so 3 stripping runs then a spirit run after I've collected all the so 4 runs to get about a gallon of likker all proofed down but it's worth it

  • @PMELKUS
    @PMELKUS ปีที่แล้ว +2

    I have the same one but with out the thumper and for the price it's great. I did do one thing and after a bit of pluming I move the worm off to the side no need to have it setting on top of cooking pot picking up heat.

  • @moonshineandall.....1246
    @moonshineandall.....1246 ปีที่แล้ว +3

    i purchased this still about two months ago.i've done about 3 corn runs with it and it works well.160 proof is the highest i've ran.proofed it down,came out with 3/4 to a gallon of shine.it works pretty well.puked it once in the beginning,but i am very happy with this purchase tho,for real.

    Getting sick of running multiple runs on my little Air Still. It ain't bad but it takes multiple runs for multiple gallons of mash. Ordering parts for my 15 gallon still build is taking a while. So, I just order this Vevor using your code!!!
    Thanks man!!

    I got a competing brand that’s basically the same, except I got the 8.5 gallon pot with mine for $120. Just the pot alone is worth if. I had to ditch the condenser because it was too small. I watched one of your other videos on building one and now everything is fine.

    I bought the 5 gallon one, I’m about to try my hand at my very first ever. Seems simple enough, as I just watched a guy use corn meal, a pressure cooker 5 gallon bucket and the copper. Same process, just way simpler.
    Gonna in about a week. Wish me luck.

    I got one of these for Christmas. Did you run a sacrificial run to clean the still before doing a good run? I also got a 18.5 gallon football still. Never done this before but I'm reading everything and watching your videos before I try.. thanks for videos.

  • @richardleslie339

  • @jessehawkins4823

    I got one of the Vevor ones without the thumper and on the second run the threads on the thermometer and the nut holding the copper coming out of the top of the still both started corroding and I got flecks of metal in my distillate.

    Bought one on Amazon used it for about a year ended up buying a better quality stil on mile hi.
    Vevor is cheap and feels cheap too. Other than the cheap feeling it leaks as well. Had to change out the lines and putty the fittings outside as well

  • @battalion151R
    @battalion151R ปีที่แล้ว +2

    Wife bought me the same still. My initial run, I figured out that the thumper was missing the down tube. I noticed you were thinking the same thing, out of the box. I see you used the silicone tube to attach the copper tube. I drilled out the fitting and added a copper tube. The booklet shows that short silicone and copper tubing, as an extension extension for the output nipple. But it should work well, the way you did it.
    Getting ready to start some real mash. There's a recipe in the booklet for some sweet feed moonshine, that has me intrigued.
    I had to chuckle about another recipe for "Good Whiskey". As opposed to bad Whiskey? 🤮

    Like I said I had to invest in some copper line I have a 13 gallon pot and it came with a two court little Thumper just like yours. And yeah mine came with the same time for years did it's got no downspout though so I had to rig something up there and then my first run it filled up and plugged up and it was only my second time ever running it still. It was a butthole puckered event!!!
