Here's a few things to think about:
- How much booze you actually want to make.
- How much time you have run your still.
- How much room you have to run your still.
- How much you want to spend.
Some off-the shelf options for you:
A 25 litre boiler with a 2" pot still is great starter kit if you're not keen on committing to a larger set up. If you decide you want make neutral later (for vodka or maybe gin) you can add a 2" boka and you're set. You can check these out here:
5 Star 2" Pot Still
25 Lire Boiler
2" Boka"
A step up from that would be a 50 litre boiler with a 4" pot still. Difference between the previous option is that it can make more booze faster. If you decide you want make neutral later you can add extra parts to the existing ones (plates, packed section and reflux condenser) to create column still. Check out the 5 Star Pot Still
4" Pot Still
50 Litre Boiler
The top of the line would be a 4" modular column that you can reconfigure to suit almost any spirit. This can be run on a 50 or 100 litre boiler.
Neutraizer
Something else to consider; if you're at all handy with tools, you could easily DIY up a good pot still. There's plenty of examples in the Pot Still section of the forum.
Don't forget to factor the sundry items into your budget (Fermenters, alcometers, voltage controller etc)
Cheers,
Prof. Green.
