Angry Parrot Distillery

Client job going out tonight/tomorrow for a man that has acknowledged his profound love of distilling and is ready to test the tolerance thresholds of his marriage when his missus finds the dragons-hoard of distilling gear he has been amassing! 🤣

58L "keggle" with 2x 2kW ultra-low-density elements, bottom drain, 4" fillport, 6" column ferrule with 4" reducer and thermometer 'belly port'.

Custom 120L kettle with 4" copper column.

Column used up my last piece of heavy copper pipe I had stashed and weighs a ton (well ok, not a ton - but a hell of a lot more than 4" tube. 😊 )

Client for this still is wanting to make whisky/rum and has a desire to ferment and distill on the grain, hence the 2" drain port in the kettle and the second 4"port in the kettle for a mechanised agitator and motor.

This went out just before Christmas and client had it assembled Christmas eve (who needs a Christmas tree when you have a 2.3m tall copper still and 120L kettle?

The whole kit and kabootle comes in just under the clients ceiling height, ... if he goes with a dephlegmator at some point we can get the column back and cut it down to build the dephleg' yet still stay under his ceiling. 😊

Was great to have something like this out the door end of year after what has been a hell of a year with workshop getting flooded, covid downturn, trouble sourcing components, ... I know I'm not alone in that respect - Merry Christmas all! 🎅
