400-Litre Complete Hydraulic Still with GIN BOX

400-Litre Complete Hydraulic Still with GIN BOX

The 400-litre Complete Hydraulic Still with GIN BOX is designed for the alcoholic distillation of liquid ferments such as spirits, wine, must, gin, whisky and rum. Its robust construction and design are intended to optimise both the quality and quantity of the distillate.

🌿 This model includes a GIN BOX with a botanical basket, expanding the possibilities for making gin using steam distillation or infusion. It also includes a transfer pipe, allowing the still to be used without the GIN BOX.

🛠️ Robust construction

🔨 Hammered copper: made from 2.5 mm thick copper sheet.

🟡 Durable components: iron handles and brass nuts.

🔗 Welded joints: welded throughout the structure for durability.

🧱 Protection: includes protective iron bars on the boiler.

❄️ High-performance condenser

The condenser is designed to facilitate steam condensation and optimise vapour flow, helping to produce a cleaner and purer distillate.

🔥 Capacity and performance

🛢️ Total capacity: 450 litres.

🧪 Working capacity: 400 litres.

⏳ Estimated distillation time: 6–8 hours.

📈 Indicative yield: 10–15% of working capacity, depending on the fermented liquid and the process used.

📊 Approximate output

The quantity produced depends on the alcohol content of the fermented liquid and the distillation method.

🥃 Simple distillation: without a rectifier and using a fermented liquid at approximately 10% ABV, the estimated output is 40–60 litres at around 45% ABV.

🧪 With rectification: the estimated output is 30–40 litres at around 75% ABV.

🎁 Included accessories

🌡️ Two large thermometers with a 0–120° scale.

🍶 Large alcoholmeter with a 0–100° scale and holder.

🚰 Discharge pipe with a 2.5” valve in stainless steel or brass.

🔥 70 cm gas burner specifically designed for this model.

🧪 Rectification lens for obtaining purer alcohol at a higher strength.

🛠️ Iron supports for the boiler, GIN BOX and cooler.

🌿 GIN BOX equipped with a botanical basket, ideal for gin distillation by steam or infusion.

🔄 Transfer pipe for using the still without the GIN BOX.

🧴 More distillation options

The combination of the hydraulic still and the GIN BOX allows you to work with different types of fermented liquids and expands the options for producing aromatic spirits. The botanical basket provides a dedicated solution for incorporating aromas during gin production.

Note: the times and yields given are estimates and may vary depending on the fermented liquid, its alcohol content and the distillation conditions.
