    Mike, 

    I used to operate Appalachian Mountain Spirits. I am getting back into the whisky business and would like a quote for three, 350-gallon mash tuns. I would like to use them for fermentation and the mixer would be great. The name of the company is Highlands Distilling, but my appmtnspirits@yahoo is still valid.

    Thanks,

    Scott Schumaker (Mash)

    I have just seen this. I am sorry to just be getting back to you. I have just emailed you. 

    thank you

  4. you need to make sure your running 220 volts.  I have had a few customers call about this lately. I am having my manufacturer of these to check and see if anything has changed. These are all bench tested at the facility to make sure they pull 22 amps.. Please let us know if you continue to have problems.

  5. There is a Master distiller needed in Paducah Ky. Good salary and benefits with the proper qualifications.  They would like 10 years experience in a distillery. They  will pay relocating expenses also. If you interested send email to mike@hillbillystills.com and I will put you in contact with the correct people.

The 1000 gallon stills will be used for bourbon and rye whiskey. The distillery will be putting up 4000 barrels a year when in full capacity.

  8. Uncle rob, I had a switch go out on my little 25 gallon and you guys didn't work at all to help. Kinda rude about it when I approached you last year when just trying to say hi and brought it up. Didn't like that very much.

    I am very sorry about this. Please give us a call back and I will take care of it personally. We can replace this switch for you. Give me a all at 270-334-3400. Ask to speak with Jerrod or Matt. Either one should be able to help you out. You can also ask for me, Mike.. I will take care of this issue

  9. I would suggest these still manufacturers and to stay away from anyone else.

    Alembics

    1. Copper Alembic (http://www.copper-alembic.com) Been around for forever, great customer service and products at very reasonable prices. Highly customizable, talk to David.

    2. Hoga Company (http://www.hogastills.com) Great manufacturer and reasonable prices though limited customizability.

    3. Forsyth (http://www.forsyths.com) Great large whiskey producer.

    4. Vendome Copper (http://www.vendomecopper.com) Best in the game for large scale alembic and copper stills.

    Column

    1. Ulrich Kothe (http://www.kothe-distilling.com/newsite/) Top of the line!

    2. Artisan Still Design (http://artisanstilldesign.com) DUH! amazing product and amazing guy! I can't recommend them highly enough!

    3. Carl (http://www.brewing-distilling.com/page2/ccarl-stills.html)

    4. Holstein (http://www.a-holstein.de/index.php?id=159)

    Now these are not in any specific order and I'm sure there are a few other good ones around that I am missing but I generally tend to stay away from still manufacturers who push the recent moonshine craze in your face. Nothing wrong with moonshine but the way it's advertised of late really just speaks to the people who are only in it for the money and not for quality. Hope you get the situation worked out.

    You need to add Hillbilly Stills / HBS Copper to this list..

  10. Always install a pressure relief valve. Your relief valve should never be higher than 10 PSI .. If you get 10 psi in a still you have a real problem and need to shut it down... Safety First.. Always use a pressure relief.

    We don't build anything without Pressure Relief.. We have stills all over the USA and other countries. We have never had any problems with inspectors when installing our equipmen, partly because of the safety pressure vacuum relief.

  11. We do have one customer that is using 2-100 gallon tanks for his cooling water. He has a 100 gallon still and runs about 6 hours per day. his tanks are inside close to his still. In the winter it works fine, in the summer he is having some trouble getting his water as cool as he wants it, but it is still working. One option would be to run the water from your condenser through a condenser coil with a fan on it before it goes back into the tank. This would be a inexpensive was to make it work.

    Other than that I would recommend calling G&D Chillers. The can set you up with the perfect system.

    I hope this help you out some.

  12. Hey guys I just wanted to take a minute to introduce ourselves again, since it has been a while. We are one of the few American Still builders here in the USA. We can build anything from 30 gallon all copper to 300 gallon all copper or Stainless here in Kentucky. If you go to hbscopper.com you can see our references here in the USA. We can design it or you can design it and we will build it.

    We can do Steam jacketed, Electric or Hot oil bath. If we can be of any assistance please give us a call at 270-334-3400 from 8 AM central to 4 PM central time. We do take 12 -12:30 for lunch.

    You will find that our customer support is second to none, before and after the sale!

  13. If your mounting your head on the top of this just consider how much it weighs. We use 96 0z copper on ours with a 4 plate 6" column. It sounds like if you have any problems you can fix them yourself though. That does make a difference. As a manufacturer we have to make sure that we over build because We intend for our stills to last a lifetime with many years of service.

    If you can build your own this may not be of as much concern, Good luck and have fun. It's a great thing to build anything and know that you did that.

  14. We have all american made commercial stills here also. Contact us with any options you may want.. We can build to your specifications...Give us a call

    270-334-3400

    We also now offer Steam systems up to 300 gallon. We want your business and will work to get it.!!
