You should use no less than .12 or 1/8th inch thick copper. Your going to have allot of weight in the pot when it is full. If you need help building this contact us matt@hbscopper . We can build the entire system or parts for you.

We want to let everyone know that we are now offering Steam heated systems at HBS Copper, the commercial side of our Hillbilly Stills. We have been lucky enough to be able to work with the Engineering Dept at University of Kentucky, Paducah campus. They have helped us with our calculations on our steam jackets and how much steam is needed. These will use low pressure steam. With these being built in the USA, HBS Copper takes great pride in our product. We are trying to do our part to offer affordable American made distilling systems.. If your in the market please give us a call and let us see if we can help you. Check out HBS Copper. We offering 30 gallon up to 300 gallon at this time. We look forward to working with you.

Yes this was a great conference. I had no idea How many people were interested in what we are doing here at Hillbilly Stills. You will be seeing many new things coming in 2012. We will be seeing all of you at the next conference in 2013. Thank you to Bill Owens and his staff for providing us all the operitunity to gather and showcase our products along with meeting our past and future customers. I want to thank all of you who made purchases from us at the conference and for those of you who will be purchasing soon. Mike

Here is a look at the new 50 gallon system were now selling. We did a test run on this boiler and decided to make some changes to some of the fittings and a new placement for the thermometer in the boiler. we will be offering a complete package on this soon. It will include a heating system with 2 5500 watt immersion elements and a single control box to adjust the amperage of each element. here is a pic of the first one we received. We did a test run on it just to check out our TG5500 heating system. It worked but it did need more power. I feel sure the new controller will work well with this set up.

Yes Friday you are correct. Also if you let any still set very long and not in use they will tarnish and turn green in places. This is what they look like when they are ready to ship. I just want to clear this up.

I am currently working with another builder to build a double walled boier. stainless outside and copper inside. Oil jacket heated with electric emersion heaters. They will be in the 60 gallon and 100 gallon range. When I have more informtion I will come back here and let you know more about it. Right now it is in the designing stage. Mike

I have a dedicated Shop with fabrication equipment. It is not a back yard shop. I am a proffessional LLC with all the necessary licensing. I am in contact with Vendome brass and copper frequently. They have given me some great advice about materials to use for my builds. I take great pride in my products and I am a proffesional builder. I am the owner and operator of Hillbilly Stills.

Most all of the parts I use in my builds are built for me specifically to my drawings. My fittings are being manufactured at this time to my specifications. I have also built several units that the columns can be attached together. I hope you understand my columns are protected by federal copyright laws. I am in the process of building a 6" 6 plate column at this time. I am sourcing out builders at this time for a 60 gallon boiler also. Mike

Hello I am The owner of Hillbilly Stills and the conversation is really pretty interesting. I do offer my Hillbilly Flute with bubble caps also. I have made a few of them for customers. I think you would really be suprised at the consitency of the perforated plates though. I can tell very little differnce in the two. I have 4 customers running them on 55 gallon boilers and I am getting very good feed back from them. I would like to invite you to stop by if you are ever in western Ky. Feel free to call or email me also. If you would like you can call 270-334-3400 or e mail me at mike@hillbillystills.com These make great recipe development stills and a really good for the micro distiller that is just getting started and may does not have several thousand to invest right off the bat. I am planning to make it to one of the ADI conferences and bring one of my columns and boilers out for display. I wanted to come out to Oregon but I just did not feel I had the time to take away from my customers. If any of you are interested but require bubble caps please let me know I will build which ever you would like. come by and see me at www.hillbillystills.com any time. Mike

I am looking for yeast to buy in bulk to offer the Micro distilleries, and small time distillers. If any of you have a source or suggestion please let me know. Thank you very much.

Lighting and a good security camera set up would be my first option.
