Copper Alambic - 40 L Destille KUPFER

Classic Portuguese Copper Alembic: The Ultimate Home Distilling Still

The classic copper alembic still is a time-tested Portuguese distiller for crafting premium spirits at home. Each unit is hand-forged by Portuguese artisans from the purest copper (99.9%) using safe, lead-free soldering. This is the gold standard of traditional distillation, featuring a shape trusted by the world's finest cognac and whiskey distilleries.

Key Benefits of a Copper Alembic Still

• Effective purification: The unique onion-shaped helmet acts as a natural air dephlegmator. It gently cools the vapor, forcing heavy fusel oils to flow back into the distillation pot.

• Unmatched smoothness: Extensive contact with the copper helps precipitate sulfur compounds. This eliminates harsh odors and ensures the smoothest possible distillate.

• Perfect aroma: Only the purest, lightest, and most aromatic alcohol vapors travel through the vapor pipe (swan neck) and into the condenser.

What Can You Make with a Classic Copper Distiller?

The still's design maximizes the retention of natural aromas from fruit, berry, and grain mashes. With this home distiller, you can produce a wide variety of beverages:

• Grain masterpieces: Homemade whiskey, bourbon, and traditional polugar.

• Fruit and grape brandies: Authentic cognac, armagnac, calvados, schnapps, chacha, grappa, and pisco.

• Non-alcoholic products: Distilled water and natural floral hydrosols (essential waters).
