These copper stills perfectly add excellent flavor and aroma to your spirits, allowing you to produce a high quality product that you and your friends will love.

Why Copper Is Ideal For Still Construction

Here are some of the reasons why copper is the optimal material for converting your mash into appetizing moonshine:

The most important and distinctive property that makes copper the optimal material for pot stills is that fact that copper actually reacts on a molecular level with alcohol, making the end product taste even better. One byproduct of yeast during the fermentation process is sulfur. This means that the wash that enters the still may have sulfur compounds present. Having copper in the vapour path ensures that any of these compounds present will react with the copper in your still and not make their way into the end product.

As you might already know, sulfur is a foul-smelling and foul-tasting element that, if allowed to form in your essential oil or distilled spirit, will give the final product a foul smell and a bad taste.

When these sulfur compounds, however, come in contact with copper, they react at a molecular level and turn into copper sulfate – which sticks to the surface of the pot still.  This helps to remove the unwanted sulfur smell and taste from your final product.

Secondly, copper has a very high electrical and thermal conductivity, which ensures even distribution of heat and successful cooling of vapors.

Moreover, copper is malleable, so it is a valuable material to work with to produce the characteristic and essential curves in a still.  It is also a very resilient metal, which helps to enhance its overall durability. It is easily pounded, stretched and cut into the required shape. This makes it a great material for making distillation equipment.

Copper is also resistant to rust, particularly under extreme humidity and temperature fluctuations. That’s why copper items have been found in good condition in different archeological sites around the world, including some dating as far back as ancient Egypt.

Another important attribute of copper is its great antimicrobial properties. Copper has been scientifically proven to destroy a broad array of bacteria and viruses. Many hospitals have installed copper doorknobs to help reduce the transmission of disease. Plumbing systems also rely on copper to control the presence of bacteria in bathing and drinking water. Copper also hinders the production of ethyl carbonate, a poisonous substance produced from cyanides.

Due to reactions at a molecular level, copper enhances the aroma and quality of your spirit when the mash is not pure, making your final product far more palatable.
