  • 50-60 Gallon Steam Operated Stills by Carl, Kothe, or Vendome

    Posted by rickdiculous on March 12, 2019 at 7:28 pm

    I recently got the bad new my Kothe 250L 60 gallon electric still is drawing enough power to change my commercial class and I’m about to experience an almost 1000% increase in electric uses.  Gotta love local energy monopolies.  So I’m looking to buy a small steam powered still to take this electric one offline and pass it on to someone who can use it in a different energy jurisdiction.  If you are planning an upgrade and thinking of selling a small one let me know asap.

    Bain marie?  Can you retrofit steam?  Or do you not want to go down that route?

    It is Bain Marie. I’m holding off on a retro fit to see if I can find something similar to the Kothe I currently have.

    Check with Andrew Koenig at Koenig Distillery- he has a nice little unit over there that is pretty close to what you describe.
