Fermenting Vat

 

 

 
 
Here is the equipment I have available.
 
  • The Still is a 4" dia. SS reflux still, 60" long "The Beast" manufactured by Mile Hi Distilling.  I also have an additional 18" extension.  It is packed with 5/16 raching rings.

  • I have made a 55 gallon barrel into a boiler.  It is designed to operate in the horizontal orientation and has a pressure gauge and temperature gauge installed. 
  • I have fired it with a propane burner which I do not intend to sell.
 
  • I also have a 55 gallon open top drum with lid that I have used as a fermenting vat. 
  • I have an old electric blanket which works well for maintaining temperature during cooler temps.  A temperature gauge for the fermenting vat.  I also have a alcohol meter and hydrometer.
 
  • I also have a FullFlex adapter for a 2003 Ford V-6, but it should work with any fuel injected V-6 as long as the injector connectors match.
 
  • I paid $729 plus shipping for the Still.
  • I have invested approx $100 into the boiler.
  • The vat I purchased for $40 total w/ temp gauge.
  • The electric blanket was $30
  • The alcohol meter and hydrometer were $20 ea.
  • The Flexfuel adapter was $589.00.
 
  • I haven't decided on a price for any of the components yet.  I had hoped to sell it as a package.  I guess I am looking for offers now.
 
  • I have included a few pictures taken while I was running a batch.  They aren't very good, but give you the basic idea.  The items are located in Utah, but I can ship fairly reasonably nation wide.
 
Let me know if you have any interest.
 
 Thanks,
 Keith
