The details

The Still Spirits Air Still is an air cooled pot still for small batches of neutral or botanical spirit at up to 60% ABV. A built-in fan blows air over the coils to condense the vapour, so there is no water supply to connect and nothing to plumb in: it runs on the bench and stores in the pantry.

A botanical basket, sold separately, turns it to gin and other botanical spirits. It also suits distilled water and hydrosols.

A note on the law: in Australia you need a licence from the ATO to distil spirits, including at home. Stills of 5L or under may be used without a licence for water purification or essential oil extraction. In New Zealand a still of up to 25L may be used at home to produce spirit for personal consumption.

Who it's for

For small batches and small spaces: it runs on a kitchen bench off a normal power point and packs away afterwards. Suits a first still, an apartment, or the back of a caravan.

Works With

The Air Still Pro Head Unit upgrades this boiler to dual-mode. The Carbon Filter & Collector Set and the botanical basket are sold separately.

How does the Air Still turn a wash into spirit?

Four stages. Ferment a wash of sugar, water and Turbo yeast over 7 to 10 days. Distil the wash in the Air Still, which collects around 700ml of spirit at roughly 60% ABV in an hour. Filter it through activated carbon, then dilute to 40% and flavour with the essence of your choice.

How long does a batch take?

The wash ferments over 7 to 10 days and a distillation run takes about two hours on the bench. Allow a little more for carbon filtering and flavouring.
