Complete Copper Fuel Alcohol Stills
4th generation still with upgrades
 
- A 2" Diameter pipe between reflux column and the condenser to allow more vapors to pass into the condenser.
- Smaller marbles for more stripping of ethanol vapors, and thus a slightly higher proof ethanol going into the condenser.
- A drain for part-time distilling to drain the bubbler of liquids
- A high-quality stainless steel thermometer in Centigrade and Fahrenheit with a 3" dial.
- Wall-mount brackets included so you can mount permanently on an inside wall. No stand to build!
- The auto water valve comes with a 1/4" hex key for easy adjustment.
- This still will produce up to 5 GPH (120 GPD) with 18% beer ethanol content. Lower output per hour with lower ethanol content.* This still is sufficient to fuel one vehicle for the average person, assuming you distill at least four times a week.
- Comes with its own serial number stamped on the still.
- Comes crated in a plywood box ready to unpack with just a cordless screw gun!
- You need a minimum 30 gallon boiler size.
Also includes a free download of the BeUtilityFree™ Living Sourcebook! (a $9.95 value) and toll-free telephone technical support for one year from date of purchase
*All ethanol output of any still is based on concentration of alcohol vapors going into still, boiler size and the flow rate of the vapors. The first hour of production in a batch process always produces the highest amount of ethanol output. You MUST also have a Federal permit to operate this still. You can download the forms directly off our web site and send them in after you fill them out. For the form please click here.
Shipping included only in the continental USA. For other areas we will quote a shipping charge. Out of country shipments are usually shipped via DHL Express. We DO ship internationally.

Produce even more fuel using our 4" Column Fuel Ethanol Still
 
If you want to produce enough ethanol to fuel two vehicles or more, you'll need our larger still.
- The 4" column still has an average ethanol output of 5 gallons per hour, with a beer content of at least 10% ethanol. Output depends on the ethanol content of your beer and the boiler size. The higher the ethanol content of your beer and the larger the batch, the higher the output. We recommend a minimum boiler size of 100 gallons for operation of the 4" column still.
- You'll get the same great package of blueprints, parts and the SourceBook as above, just with a larger still and higher output capability.
- Shipping is included in the price to the lower 48 states. We ship internationally using DHL Express. International shipping is NOT included in the price. Please email us for a quote.

Our stills are descended from Robert Warren's Charles 803 still. For those who want to know more about the precursor to our stills, take a look at the Charles Still History page.
"... we got the still but it was only yesterday that I finally managed to visit the workshop and see it.
Many thanks – it looks a really well-made piece of kit. Now to make the boiler"

We are very satisfied with the distillery which John D’Angelo built and installed for us. He made two stills for us in order to distill kind of continuously. We make our wash from molasses from our local sugar mill and from bakers yeast.....The sugar gives a higher ethanol yield compared to molasses...The stills and boilers seem to cope well with molasses and with sugar wash...John came to us and installed the two stills and trained our staff. The stills are easy to use and if properly run we get 92 – 94 % ethanol.
