Fermenters for Stills

Everything that ends up in the still starts in the fermenter, and a wash that ferments cleanly is worth more than any clever bit of gear further down the line. This is the vessel end of the job.

The simple option is a plastic drum with a screw lid, and we have them at 15 litres, 30 litres and 60 litres, along with the Italian plastic fermenter barrel from SSS. From there the FermZilla range by Kegland steps things up: a 30 litre kit, a 60 litre kit with a 120mm cap and airlock, and the Gen3 Tri Conical at 27 litres as a starter kit with a handle. There is also a 30 litre fermenter from Handcraft Supplies.

Spares are the part people forget, and we hold plenty. There are spare lids with an airlock hole, lids with both an airlock and a heater hole, a replacement lid for the 30 litre heated fermenter, the Still Spirits lid for a 30 litre pail with grommet included, and replacement rubber orings for the AMPI fermenter. For temperature there is a boxed thermometer from Mad Millie and a Kegland infrared laser gun reading from minus 50 to 580 degrees.

Buy bigger than your batch. A vigorous wash climbs, and a 30 litre drum filled to the brim will push foam straight out the airlock. Leave real headspace.

Come and look at them at Laverton North or Epping. See also Spirits and Distillation, Distilling Yeasts and Alembic and Pot Stills.
