The new polyphoenix distillation unit is made from PPSU injection molded segments and allows you a clear view of what is going on inside the still making it easier to run and monitor the process.
We have a range of different modular components for this distillation unit including bubble capper plates, soxhlet, gin basket, quick swivel connectors, brackets, shelves, product condenser, shotgun condenser, water regulators and many more other parts that are also in the pipeline. - Навчання та стиль

I'd love to see Jesse over at StillIt get his hands on some of this gear and do some videos with detail about using it. I've never gotten into distilling because it's been a bit intimidating, but watching him for a while now has gotten me interested and less nervous. Looks like this system might be possible to build a good beginner still, and reckon he could be a good partner for making learning content.
Amazing product development as always, guys.
Yes that is a good point. We will get one over to Jesse. We recently spoke to him about this and if we are lucky we might be able to convince him to give this new still design a go.

Your really need to foucs on plastic safty part, when I built my still most post on homedistiller forums was very sceptical of even ptfe, silicon was unheard of. that was only for gaskets, now you want to build a whole collum of plastic.@@KegLand
I'm not sure how I miss this one. Super cool 🍻
3:23 Unexpected David Heath cameo
Yes he was helping at the stand. It was great to have him along. I also did some video with him too which you can see on his channel.
Love your products and just dipping the toes into distilling, pressure fermenting is so easy with the BlowTie2 and these highly engineered plastic distill fittings look great
Thanks for the support. We really appreciate it. Hopefully we can get a lot of new customers to give distilling a go as it's really not has hard as people think it is.
Looking forward to these coming back into stock so I can build my first 3-inch.
Brand new product, actually - hasn't come to marketyet. Watch this space!
This will defo be an upgrade from my airstill as I recently got a brewzilla gen 4 and moved to all grain brewing this is defo the next step for distilling just hope I can find a stockist in the UK👍 hope theres going to be some good content on how to use as a beginners guide 👍 great products cheers 🍻
Yes absolutely. We are going to do a number of new distillation videos to describe the process in a bit more detail.
I brew on my Brewzilla and there is a lot of info out there about them but there doesn't seem to be any good videos for beginners and there is nothing out there for distilling on any of your distilling equipment, is it possible you can do a how too video for beginners? There are a lot who want to upgrade from extract to all grain or even distilling but there's a real lack of informaiton on getting started
Yes I will make sure we do this moving forward. Distillation is an area we have a massive shortage of videos and information so we will try and do a better job of this moving forward.
YEP!, you've nailed it Kee, this set up is going to be B I G I... I'm on board already 💯%👍.
Thanks for that Garry. I hope so. Even though myself and several of the staff here really enjoy craft distilling we really have not done much on this side of things so this is a very exiting step forward for us.
I can't wait till this line is released it looks Game Changing to me, Good onya Kee and Team 👏.@@KegLand
Wow this is exciting. I use a pot and reflux still from you guys and love them on my 35L brewzilla gen4. I've been doing a lot of vapour infusions using columns below the pot still with awesome results. But it's so cumbersome and gets so tall. So the polyphenix sounds perfext to me. A few terms you used there there are new to me, so it is time to do some research and swot up. I'll be all-in once it comes out. I just don't want to be short on power if I have a big column, with temps having to be scorching hot at the bottom to get the right temperatures at the top.
Hey Kieran. Good to hear from you! The 3inch diameter column still works on lower powers too so even if you went down to under 1000watts you can still run it fine.
As you would know with the older alcoengine designs if these are tightly packed you can have flooding issues at around 2kw so you cant even use the full power of 10amp supply.
Really keen to get these out into the wild and get feedback from our customers. We really have not done enough work on the distillation gear up until recently but we are making this a focus for us for the next few years.
@@KegLand that's great to hear Kee! After brewing for so many years (and still am), I'm finding it a lot of fun doing distillations. So I look forward to seeing the new stuff you dream up. :)
Completely unrelated but: have you guys ever considered creating a new version of the Nukatap Mini shank to be compatible with the regular Nukatap? I really like that setup for fridge walls because regular shanks feel a bit "too much" but I prefer the looks of the regular Nukatap. It felt such an easy product to make that I'm surprised it doesn't exist already.
Yes absolutely. This is also something that has been discussed. We really hate the standard 5/8 shank and it's time that this was improved. It was easy with the nukatap mini to use a new standard but with the older style taps we will have to convince customers to switch over to a new shank design.
@@KegLand if I understand correctly the idea was to change the Nukatap thread to a new standard? If so that indeed would be a challenge.
But having the option for both regular shanks and a modified version of the Nukatap Mini one would be amazing.
Looks awesome! When will they be release and on the website?
Should be up on the website in about 2 weeks.
Where in Germany will your product be sold. It is very hard to find Kegland items in Germany other than the Fermzilla. We would love to see other items like the pill and other RAPT products.
It's best to check this map. If you can't find a good distributor in Germany we do have plenty of others in Europe that you can purchase from and get product shipped to you:

Tell me more about this air still

Are you guys still working on a ss fermzilla?
Yes this is still happening and we are definitely releasing this product in 2024 at some stage. We just have a couple minor changes to the design and then we will release soon.
Even in Germany home distilling of ethanol is illegal .
In Australia you need a license to distill alcohol.
The tax on pure ethanol is about $82 per Litre.
So a 700mL bottle of 40% ABV spirit will attract about $23 in tax payable to the ATO.
You can see why home distillers take the risk.
The only legal stills that I am aware of are for therapeutic and medicinal oil extracts - the pot still is limited to 500mL.
Keep your distilling equipment separate from the actual wort boiler and always have a 500mL pot that fits the column and condensers etc.
You can always claim that you use the still for separating volatile oils from Lemon peels.
(And you have no idea where the large crate of vodka bottles in the corner are used for😮)
Yes you are absolutely correct. If you wanted to attach a boiler over 5L in volume to this still you will have to apply for a licence with the ATO.
@davidheathhomebrew looking forward to your take on these products, obviously since you've had a good look already 😁🍺
Yes absolutely. I agree!
