6 Gallon Copper Moonshine Still with Thumper and Worm (Model 8422)

This 6 gallon copper still comes as a full traditional package: pot, thumper and worm. The thumper acts as a second informal distillation stage, bumping up proof and letting you load fruit or spices for added character, while the coiled worm condenser cools the vapor back to liquid the old-fashioned way.

At 6 gallons it sits in the sweet spot for serious hobbyists, large enough for a satisfying run of whiskey or moonshine, small enough to manage comfortably. The entire vapor path is copper, so sulfur compounds are stripped out as you distill.

It is the kind of setup that rewards experimentation, especially if you enjoy chasing flavor through the thumper rather than just chasing proof.
