This is the first video from Planet Moonshine and it is a how-to video on converting a 50L stainless steel beer keg into a still for home distillation.

Our goal at Planet Moonshine is to make spirits such as Whiskey, Gin, and Rum and ask the question: Is this something we can sell, and will people actually buy it?

Here in Spain I operate a craft micro brewery, and I have a license to produce alcohol in all its forms. This allows me to legally distill products and sell them, and yes, pay taxes on those sales.

Many people asked what exact equipment I used...

Here is a list... sorry if some of the links are out of date.
Here are some of the parts I ordered… not sure I have a full list any more.

Element - You need the 220V version for UK or 110V for USA. I used the 3Kw model. it heats 30L of wash to boiling in just about an hour.

I also bought a 3” sight glass which I use at the base of the column and a 2 to 3inch tapered adapter The sight glass is the 76mm x Ferrule 91 item.

Can’t find the link to that one, but its a standard adapter 76mm to 50.5.

Plus a few spare tri clamps and gaskets in 2inch and 3inch as spares.
