Customer Reviews for VEVOR Moonshine Still 5 Gal 21L Stainless Steel Water Alcohol Distiller Copper Tube Home Brewing Kit Build-in Thermometer for DIY Whisky Wine Brandy, 5Gal, Silver

Pretty good little rig thumper keg is a slop bucket though, easy to fix though

Made very well. Patrick Belcher

My husbands new hobby is this.. he has made moonshine, whiskey and now in the process of making beer :)

I'm super happy with this still.It's easy to assemble and use.At first the thumper keg didn't seal but that was my fault.I put some c clamps on the lid to help seal it. Then I realized the way I had the hoses was the problem they were putting tension on the lid.I reset it so the hoses so were not putting tension on the lid.If you take the time to assemble correctly it works great.

This is the best constructed product I've bought. It's got a heavier, though it should be more, base for heat retention and fantastic added features incuding: include condenser circulation pump, quality brass fittings everywhere and stellar stainless dogs and handles. My impressions after running a vinegar distill to clean everything out is as follows:#1 there is absolutely no need for handles anywhere. Remove still pot handles and still lid handle. Anyone can use the lid dogs as anchor points if the still pot is rocking an rollin.#2 Lid Geometry.Lid dogs should be at 45, 135, 225, and 315 degreesLid temp gauge should be ~2/3*lid_diameter @ 270 degreesCondenser out should be ~2/3*lid_diameter @ 0 degrees#Condenser PotCentered at lid:-----Left-handed cooling:----------Valved input and output should be ~ 160 degrees----------Condenser Product Output spigot should be ~ 200 degrees-----Right-handed cooling---------Valved input and output should be ~ 30 degrees----------Condenser Product Output spigot should be ~ 200 degreesPipe observations:*Still lid output pipe should fit condenser input or gin basket input** This means that gin basket output pipe must fit condenser input** There is no need for the 90 degree copper bend pipe that is supposed to go from still_lid_out to gin basket in. Just include two pipes that will fit still-to-condenser and still-ginBasket-condenser.*Get rid of the short copper pipe and tube from the condenser out. Put it a 12-18 inch surgical tube like the tubes for the circulation pump but that fit the condenser output. It's much more convenient.Finally, no one needs the fermentation valve if they're buying this product. Save yourselves some money. And if you're going to make it a kit, meaning I had to assemble mine, make sure there are gaskets for above and below connections as well as a roll of teflon tape. That'll be much more useful that the extraneous copper pipes and fermentation valve.

Product arrived in good shape. Well packaged. I had my doubts about the seals. After the first run with water, my doubts were proven correct. The still pot seal was ok, but the thumper leaked. Silicone made in China makes me nervous. God only knows what's in that.I peeled off the seals and used canned biscuits! It works like edible caulk. Seals perfectly . Ran another pot of water to test the biscuit theory. Great results.My first true run produced more than I expected. Overall, I'm happy that I got this rig. Good introduction into distilling.

Hugely happy about thick methal pot ! The material of the pot should be thicker to retain more heat. The larger the pot, the thicker the material should be. If the metal is too thin, it will not keep the heat and the heat will not spread evenly. all fitting not leak or required replacement, the copper pipe is clean inside. Was easy to assemble and worked like a charm. im going to buy one more this W.distiller ! its well made with good material.

The quality looks good especially for the price except the bottom was a little bowed out and it looks like it is haunted as soon as the heat is applied. (see the video), it looks like it has that old time rock and roll spirit. I still don't know if I want to return it or turn it upside down and give it a whack with a rubber hammer. I would like to make some essential oils instead of waiting on returns and fooling with all that stuff.

Jeg er ikke fornøyd med at jeg betalte for levering ved mottakelse, og det er mindre problemer – målebegeret er ødelagt, og jeg finner ingen offentlig tilgjengelig informasjon om hva som kan lages med denne enheten.

Buna ziua! Problema mea in lagatura cu produsul livrat este ca nu era in pachet pompa de racire. Fara pompa nu se poate utiliza produsul. Care ar fi splutia? Multumesc anticipat! You ar shipping the product without the pomp!
