Customer Reviews for VEVOR Moonshine Still Water Alcohol Distiller 3Gal w/ Water Pump Stainless Steel

I would have spent a little extra to buy it made right. All in all, it does make alcohol; however, there are a few things wrong with the description. First, it does NOT work with induction. To get it to work, you would have to buy a special induction plate. Second, it does not come with a thumper/doubler. When running, it will "burp," and you'll get cloudy alcohol. Technically, and I found this out after doing more research, the thump keg should be at least 30% of your main pot. The "thumper keg" provide is way too small. The pictures shown is my modifications to two different stills.... plus a chiller made from a Walmart pot and some 1/2 inch refrigerant line.The other issue is that there is no thermostat where the liquid is at. They only provide one at the top of the pot. I need to know both. The good alcohol evaporates at 160-180F. I can't have my liquid boiling at 212 when the upper reads only 180-200F. I remedied that by drilling a hole and putting the thermostat from the 2nd still into the first one.The lines included are junk. I ended up learning how to solder copper and making my own. Speaking of junk, the condenser is junk. I made my own. I did love the water pumps included. I use them to chill my mash when making it, and when I do my runs.To give this 5*, they would have had to have a thermostat at both locations in the pot, have the thump keg be the correct size, have copper as the connection lines, and the condenser to be useful. I am happy with my purchases (I did this one, and the one without the thumper), but I had to put in some copper, solder, and blood (from the cuts I gave myself from being stupid) to get it to where it should have been when I bought it.If you're willing to put in more material and effort, this is a solid purchase. If not, what you want isn't on Amazon.

I rarely review, but this device is perfect (I'll add for beginners, because that is what I am, no sign that it won't be useful as my expertise grows). First off, huge. Second, they include everything, down to a pump to recirculate cold water. Good silicone gaskets, nice stainless body, and it serves as a fermenter to boot. Nicely done.

The main container can easily be used as a fermentation vessel as well as the stated use

I haven’t used it yet

Great deal

Easy to use,easy to set up.

I was pleased at the ease of set up, and simple, clear instructions. After assembly I did a preasure test with water, wich went perfectly. I plan to reduce some wine to sherry today to get the feel of a real run. I will be making rice vodka, apple jack and moonshine. I also plan to use it to remove the alcohol from herbal tinctures to create a full extract oil.i can't wait to explore the options this product has to offer.

So far i have been very pleased and surprised how easy this is to assemble and operate. It is made very well and it's very durable. I have already recommended it to a few good friends.

It comes with everything needed. Quality material and components.

It's great! We debated this purchase because often you get what you pay for and this cost was far below what we has been looking at but this....is great quality and materials and the size is great.
