Charentes Alembic 400 liters PROFESSIONAL

Introducing the Charentés 400 liter PROFESSIONAL Still, a model that comes with high-quality accessories to facilitate the distillation process.

This model is similar to the classic Charentés still, but with one key difference: it has an internal tank with a coil. This tank has the function of preheating the must being distilled, using the vapor from the distillation to heat the must that will then pass to the main boiler. This reduces distillation time and energy consumption.

The still has a capacity of 400 liters in the boiler and 250 liters in the central tank, with a yield of 10-15% of its capacity. Each distillation yields between 65 and 98 liters, considering a 10° alcoholic fermentation.

It is made of 2.5 mm copper sheet, with shiny brass handles and nuts and welded joints.

It includes a set of professional accessories, such as 2 large thermometers from 0-120º installed in the head and the condenser to control the temperature of the distillate in gaseous state and of the cooler, respectively.

It also has 2 vertical thermometers from 0-120º, one in the boiler and one in the central tank, to control the temperature of the must and the new must to be distilled.

In addition, it has a pressure gauge in the boiler to control internal pressure and a safety valve to prevent excessive pressure.

The access door in the boiler, made of stainless steel, allows easy access to the interior.

The brass fittings ensure optimal sealing of the parts.

It also includes an alcoholmeter with thermometer to measure the alcohol content of the distillation, a support for the alcoholmeter, a discharge tube in the boiler with a 2.5" valve in stainless steel or brass to discharge the excess product, and a professional gas grill TT70.

The still comes with an iron stand for the boiler, central tank, and condenser.
