Copper Refining Lentil - Dephlegmator The Refining Lentil is an accessory to be placed between the copper swan neck lid and piping that attaches to the condensing recipient. Its main purpose is to save time as the distiller has no need to proceed with a second distillation process to obtain higher levels of alcohol in the final distillate. The refining lentil carries out an initial condensation of vapors as heavier (less volatile) substances drop back into the still pot thus only allowing lighter vapours (higher gradient of alcohol) to pass through to the water cooled coils in the condenser. To use the refining lentil, distiller should have a light but constant flow of cold water on the top side of its semi sphere surface. The excess water is discarded by means of a plastic hose (not included) which should be attached to the copper outlet tube that is soldered to the sustaining water wall on the lentil. To be able to equally cool off the entire lentil surface we suggest that distiller places a cloth to cover its top side (where water is falling). This cloth will absorb and distribute an equal temperature on the entire surface. Independent of how many distillation processes distiller wishes to proceed with to obtain desired results, the refining lentil will reduce both time and processes into half needed. Gradient of alcohol may be up to 40% purer with the use of this accessory after one distillation process.

A couple of months ago my wife and I celebrated our 30th wedding anniversary. As someone who will produce cards and commemorative images on the flimsiest of grounds, this occasion clearly qualified for a slightly more deluxe artistic response. Ideally I wanted to produce something that would represent an overview of the last 30 years with references, if possible, to some of the pivotal moments. I also wondered if it might be possible to find inspiration from the number thirty, and it was while chewing over this line of enquiry that I remembered sampling a quite sublime 30-year-old Lagavulin single malt whisky during a distillery tour on my 60th birthday trip to Islay last year. Could a fiendishly clever parallel be drawn between thirty years of wedded bliss and the production of a similarly-aged dram? Of course it could! The initial idea turned out to be the easy bit. Actually recreating one of those diagrammatic production-process illustrations, re-imagined as a thirty year relationship with the accompanying text re-written accordingly and then all somehow legibly arranged into a single image was as challenging a graphic design conundrum as I’ve ever grappled with. Here’s the result of the whole laborious business anyway, with enlarged details in the interests of clarity. Don’t expect to understand all the in-jokes.  This text taken from my Drawstring blog post on the same subject. . . #swipeleft #marriage #weddinganniversary #maltwhisky #whiskydistillery #lagavulin #whiskyproduction #copperstill #sanfrancisco #london #brighton #cycling #islay #skye #creativeprocess #autodesksketchbook #adobeillustrator #illustrator #illustration #art (at Preston Village, Brighton) https://www.instagram.com/p/B425oUjAp2m/?igshid=rv9j7rpfah4u

The Aromatic Still Room

Aromatic Still Room As I begin work on converting an old workshop on my property into my very own aromatic still room, I began to think about the origins of the still room and how various versions of it have been used back in time. Here is a fun look at aromatic still rooms from the past, and what was involved, before the big reveal on my own still room later this spring! Ancient Roman Still Rooms Both the ancient Greeks and Romans were frequent users of natural plant oils and used them for many occasions, including bathing and banquets, as well as for medicinal purposes. In Pompeii, there is much evidence, preserved in the lava of the eruption of Vesuvius in 79 A.D., to suggest that many herbs and plants were in evident use. These plants and herbs included many common names such as rose (Rosa x damascena), lavender (Lavandula angustifolia) and rosemary (Rosmarinus officinalis). There are written records which show ingredients of some perfumes and oils which were in popular use at that time. Evidence has also been uncovered in the archaeological excavations of Pompeii of perfumery making houses and early forms of “still rooms.” How Early Perfumes and Plant Medicines Were Made Early perfumes were made of purely natural ingredients unlike many synthetic brand perfumes today; flower petals, plant seeds, and tree bark were all combined with naturally fragrant resins and gums. The process of making perfumes altered over the years; however, early ancient perfumes were simply made and were called unguents. Unguents were body perfumes and were made by immersing the plant material in a fat or oil base; this process was called enfleurage. Similarly, plant oils used for medicinal purposes were also made this way; today many plant oils are commonly known as essential oils. The Origins of the European Still Room The still room became commonplace in the sixteenth century and by the eighteenth century, many large European country houses had their own still room. In the still room, aromatic plant material was prepared for cosmetic, medicinal and culinary uses, using the plants, flowers, and herbs found on the country estate. The still room was firstly used for the making of remedies for medicinal and hygienic purposes and secondly used to make culinary oils and wines. Natural Remedies and Oils Made in the Still Room The still room was also a place to make perfumes, soaps, candles, fragrant waters, home remedies, cosmetics, potpourri, and moth repellents; however, even fragrant perfumes had many beneficial medicinal properties due to the natural plant materials from which they were made. Many medicinal home remedies were made from common herbs and plants such as peppermint (Mentha x piperita), fennel (Foeniculum vulgare) and rose (Rosa x damascena). Still Room Aromatic Recipes In the still room, roses were often used to make flower waters; lavender and other fragrant herbs were used to scent linen and clothes. Myrtle flowers were used to make a skin tonic named Angel Flower Water. It was common to sprinkle scented water on the floors of a house too; lemon balm (Melissa officinalis) leaves were used as a furniture polish for oak. The still room was initially attended by a still room maid, then later in time, by the lady of the house herself. The still room was a place for many European aromatic home remedies up until the nineteenth century when synthetically engineered materials emerged. The Still Room Today The still room, to my mind, is enjoying a popular comeback recently among artisan distillers, herbalists, plant lovers, and, to some extent, aromatherapists. Although today’s still room may not be as eloquently designed as those of European Country houses of the past, the distilling of one’s own aromatic plants and herbs, direct from the garden or countryside, is the same process. And taking plants direct from the garden to the still and distilled into your own aromatic remedy is about as close to nature as it gets! amzn_assoc_placement = "adunit0"; amzn_assoc_search_bar = "true"; amzn_assoc_tracking_id = "gardensnurs0b-20"; amzn_assoc_search_bar_position = "bottom"; amzn_assoc_ad_mode = "search"; amzn_assoc_ad_type = "smart"; amzn_assoc_marketplace = "amazon"; amzn_assoc_region = "US"; amzn_assoc_title = "Shop Related Products"; amzn_assoc_default_search_phrase = "Aromatic Still Room"; amzn_assoc_default_category = "All"; amzn_assoc_linkid = "b1dd501d4a89ec3272b926f2f0c3466b"; Follow us: Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || ).push({}); Read the full article

The original copper still from the bootlegging days. Awesome story behind it-the last “being” to get drunk off the moonshine inside it was a big bear 😆 #stranahans #tour #whiskey #coloradowhiskey #booze #copperstill #history (at Stranahan's Colorado Whiskey) https://www.instagram.com/p/BvDENDUHoR4/?utm_source=ig_tumblr_share&igshid=q36z3arwuxlo
