copper is better for distilling spirits because the material removes sulfides from distillate, which produces a better tasting and smelling final product. Copper is definitely the better choice for products like Bourbon, Tennessee Whiskey, Irish Whiskey, Scotch, and traditional Rum, because of the sulfur reduction, as mentioned above. These spirits are also most commonly distilled in pot stills (no reflux), which allows for lots of flavor to come through from the wash. Copper stills are great for high proof spirits like vodka too. Tito’s Vodka, for example, is distilled in a copper pot. However, vodka is best distilled in vessels with a reflux column, as it can be done quicker that way.
Additionally you can use a refining lentil to cut the number of distillations needed to achieve the 95% alcohol. Experienced distillers can achieve 95% in a single run using 3 refining lentils.
Reflux Column & Soldered Moonshine Copper Alembic Still, as we mentioned before, purity is one of the most important points to have in mind, so the reflux column manages to get the higher alcohol volume from a single distillation run, redistilling will produce a purer and higher % of alcohol
