Alquitara 5 to 150 Litres

Stille "Alquitara" with 5 liter volume boiler, specially converted for distilling essential oils
We can recommend, without hesitation, this still which was specially forged for the distillation of essential oils – we also use it regularly in our Aroma Museum in the Rhön, in the middle of Germany, and can look back on several years of trouble-free, continuous operation.The still consists of the divided boiler with almost 5 liters capacity, the vapor chamber with aroma sieve and the top-mounted condenser. It is hand-forged out of copper in the CopperGarden forge and is ideally suited for the production of essential oils and distillates. The alquitara still is made completely out of plain copper sheeting and is certainly the best choice for distillation of essential oils. The distance the vapour travels is particularly short in this still – the vapor can transport the valuable oils as well as the aromatic distillate unimpeded into the condenser.    

Thanks to the second removable copper sieve in the upper part of the still (in the head), the entire upper section of the still can be filled with plant material. That guarantees the maximum yield. A third soldered sieve prevents the herbs from being transported into the condenser. All in all, a masterpiece and far and wide the best choice if you want to distil essential oils.
