Hi vodkaman, This is a very complex subject, so please be careful. Well done for not rushing out and simply buying the first still you saw, like many do. The type of still you buy depends entirely on what you intend to use it for - not just now, but also in 3-5 years. It needs a lot of planning to avoid costly mistakes. If you need professional help, you can view my credentials and contact details here. https://www.linkedin.com/in/gerard-evans-1b2b8a58/ I specialise in helping start-ups just like you. Good luck, Gerard
