Everything you need for commercial and small scale distillation operation. All ancillary equipment featured is designed around sound scientific principles and tested for reliability.

Fermentation Supplies include:

- Fermentation Buckets,
- Copper Fermenter & Wort Chiller,
- Heaters for increasing enzyme activity prior to fermentation,
- Fermentation or Air Locks to release carbon dioxide and keep oxygen out,
- Digital Thermometers to monitor the fermentation temperature.

Distillation Supplies include:

- Activated Carbon Filtration Systems and the best quality Activated Carbon available.

Other items include:

- Raschig rings, these small ceramic cylinders are ideal packing for reflux columns but may also be used as boiling chips to prevent surge boiling during distillation runs.

Activated carbon filtration is a specialized filtration which removes chlorine and dissolved organic contamination in water by adsorption. When alcohol is carbon filtered any fusel oils and impurities present remain trapped in the carbon particles, if the filtration is done properly what remains is pure neutral ethanol alcohol which is an excellent solvent for infusion with herbs for spirits such as gin, ouzo flavoured vodkas, schnapps and absinthe or addition of Prestige Essences. Most distilled spirits contain impurities and fusel oils, this is what gives each spirit its distinct character, pure alcohol on the other hand is colourless and flavourless.
If you are distilling a flavourful spirit then carbon filtration is not recommended.

When alcohol is allowed to flow through the filter at a slower rate, the contaminants are exposed to the activated carbon for a longer amount of time which increases the efficacy. Smaller carbon particle size will slow down the rate of filtration but there are other factors invloved that may affect it's efficacy. Would you like to read more on Activated Carbon Filtration?

Ethanol alcohol is also an excellent solvent for making hot pepper sauce. Method:Chop tabasco peppers or some other variety of hot peppers in a blender with pure alcohol until the peppers are completely homogenized, add salt and age in our american or french oak barrels to mature.
