Electric Still PID Temperature Controller

Switching from an open flame to electric heat changes how you distill, and a PID controller is the brain that makes it work. It reads your element's output and constantly trims the power to hold a target temperature, replacing the guesswork and babysitting of a propane burner with steady, hands-off control.

That precision matters at the still. Holding a consistent temperature lets you separate the foreshots, heads, hearts and tails cleanly, which is the difference between a rough run and a polished spirit. Electric heat also runs far cheaper than propane, so the controller pays for itself over a season of distilling.

Pair it with a compatible heating element and electric still to ditch the flame entirely, an especially welcome upgrade for indoor or enclosed setups where open burners are a hazard.
