This Alembic Pot Still is made up of the T500 Boiler (2200W) with a Pot Still Alembic Dome Top and Pot Still Alembic Condenser.
The boiler features dual element control switches, a stainless steel ball valve tap, and an automatic reset switch.
The dual element control switches provide more control during distillation - when both switches are in the ON position, the element will be supplied full power of 2200W. When one switch is in the OFF position, it will only consume 1100W of power. Adjusting the power can be useful in areas with warmer tap water for cooling and for control with the Alembic Pot Still.
Instead of stripping flavours to give clean neutral spirit like the T500 reflux still, this pot still retains and enhances flavours from the ingredients used (honey or fruit for example). This can be used when distilling washes that contain flavours that you wish to collect.
The Pot Still Alembic Condenser is best used with the T500 Boiler and the Pot Still Alembic Dome Top. You can use this with the T500 Boiler without the Pot Still Alembic Dome Top, to do this it fits on to the lid of the T500 Boiler. This condenser is what differentiates this still from the T500. It is what retains the flavour rather than stripping it out by refluxing. This comes with a thermometer, tubing and tap adaptor set.
The Pot Still Alembic Dome Top is copper and fits on to your T500 Boiler. This can be used in place of the T500 Boiler's stainless steel lid. The large copper surafce area of this dome top acts as a catalyst with the vapour in the still and helps enhance and concentrate the flavours and aromas as well as remove unwanted sulphur compounds. This produces a smoother, richer, sweeter tasting spirit.
