Skip Posted January 19, 2022 Share Posted January 19, 2022 This complete PDA-2 liquid management fractionating column still was built by Mike McCaw, co-author of The Compleat Distiller and still builder in Seattle, WA. The still can be used to make lower-proof, fuller-flavored distillates or run packed and slow to provide clean 190+-proof for vodka/gin/liqueur bases, etc. The two-column setup allows for twice the production from the same boiler. These were used as spirit stills (there was a separate wash still) for several years at a commercial distillery only to make neutral(ish) spirit and they are in excellent condition. The boiler is fabricated from a 55-gallon drum with reinforcement to support the columns. This still runs of electric heat (two 5500-watt heating elements) making it very inexpensive to get up and running. A great deal for someone who wants a pilot still, just needs to distill smaller amounts, or is starting a newer shop. Paid approximately $14k new. PRICE - $6000 LOCATION - Seattle, WA Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
