Ace Industial Traditional Cognac pot still for Brandy Red Copper Charente Distiller
A pot still is a type of distillation apparatus or still used to distill flavored liquors such as whisky or cognac, but not rectified spirit because they are bad at separating congeners. Pot stills operate on a batch distillation basis (as opposed to a Coffey or column stills which operate on a continuous basis). Traditionally constructed from copper, pot stills are made in a range of shapes and sizes depending on the quantity and style of spirit desired.
Spirits distilled in pots top out between 60 and 80 percent ABV (after multiple distillations).
By law, cognac, Irish and Scotch malt whiskies, and single pot still whiskey must be distilled using a pot still.
The process of distillation is still the same since the cognac was born… in the 17th century !
Cognac distillation is performed in a two-stage process, with a specific Charentais copper still, with its pot (or boiler), its swan’s necks ans its cooler and its condensing coil.
The white wine, harvested in the Controlled Appellation Area, is introduced in the pot and brought to the boiling point. Alcohol vapors condense to form a cloudy liquid called « brouillis »,with an alcohol volume of 28 % to 32 %.
The « brouillis » is then returned to the boiler for a second distillation, called « bonne chauffe ». The total capacity of the still must not exceed 30 hl (with a tolerance of 5%) and the load volume is limited to 25 hl.

FAQ
1.Which is better and more productive – a Reflux Still or a Pot Still?
Both types of Still will remove the alcohol from a wash or mash, therefore the productivity is basically the same.
Reflux Still refines the distillate to a high degree, producing a distillate of very high alcohol content with very little of the 'character' of the wash or mash coming through. A Reflux Still is a must for producing neutral spirit or Vodka.
A Pot Still produces a distillate with much lower alcohol content but with a correspondingly increased level of the 'character' coming through.
This is important for distilleries producing Spirits such as Whisky, Tequila and Rum etc. where the character of the base ingredients is required in the final product.
2.Why do I need copper?
Copper provides an essential chemical reaction, especially at lower proofs, that removes sulfides while the alcohol is in vapor form.
Copper has the ability to react with many sulfide compounds, such as sulfides or mercaptans, which are normally present in fermented mash, making them insoluble and removing them from the high wine vapor. As this chemical reaction proceeds within the still, a bright copper surface becomes very dark in color. For continuation of effective scavenging, it is necessary periodically to clean the still to remove these black deposits.
3.How much copper is really needed?
a. Copper provides an essential chemical reaction, especially at lower proofs, that removes sulfides while the alcohol is in vapor form.
b. Our systems are designed to give you the needed amount of copper for any distilled product. We can always add more copper to your system for a premium,if you require it.
