That works out to be just over $4 per bottle of 40% neutral spirit.

Add to that an essence to that can flavour 2.25L of neutral spirit, which is $13 for the Top Shelf range.

You can have your very own rum, vodka, gin, brandy, bourbon - or whatever you like - for just over $8 per bottle.

Everything you need to make your complete range of authentic spirits

Turbo 500 Copper Condenser: This is the worlds most advanced fractioning column for home distillation. It isΒ designedΒ to produce commercial grade highΒ purityΒ alcohol (93%+) and provide maximum alcoholΒ yieldΒ (95%+). As it comes ready to use, it isΒ extremelyΒ simple to operate and is a stunning looking handcrafted solid copper condenser. Use this to make authentic vodka & gin plus a range ofΒ liqueurs.

New &Β ImprovedΒ Copper Alembic Condenser: This condenser retains the flavour rather than stripping it out by refluxing. This comes with a thermometer, tubing and tap adaptor set. TheΒ new & improved version nowΒ incorporates a spiral structure modification inside the condenser called fins.Β The outer water jacket tube of the condenser has been modified internally to increase surface area with the inner distillate arm allowing for better cooling performance. Fins allow the cold water to pass through with some turbulence increasing surface area within the inner tube. TheΒ cooling sleeve has been extended back towards the temperature probe which gives the extra cooling length. This new condenser arm has improved the overall efficiency (heat transfer) of the Alembic condenser, allowing for a colder spirit collection temperature. This is perfect for when you are distilling whiskey, rum, and brandy washes to make the spirit from traditional ingredients, just like the professionals. Use this with the Grainfather to make authentic whiskey & bourbon, and with the Mangrove Jack's boiler to make authentic rum.

Our CRAFTΒ STARTER PACKΒ includes everything you need to produce oneΒ batch of pure alcohol using the Turbo 500 Condenser except forΒ sugar or dextrose. You will need 6kgs of sugar or dextrose.Β We also sell boxes ofΒ 12kgsΒ dextrose, bags of 25kgsΒ dextrose, and boxes of 12kgs Turbo Sugar.Β You also have the Alembic Pot Condenser to make full flavoured craftΒ spirits.

        Check out the below instructions onΒ how to use the Still Spirits Turbo 500. Please note, the condensers now come pre-packed with saddles, so you can skip this step. Also, they use a cap for the airlock which you shouldn't do, you should just fill it with water so air can escape and not get inside.

        "I found distillery king fantastic to deal with! from initial enquiry through to delivery . top notch"

        Craig B. (5/5)

        CRAFT SUPER Pack: Next Generation Still Spirits Turbo 500 (T500) Copper Condenser & Alembic Pot Condenser

        "My son and I have had a ball using the Still and Alembic Pot and it has been an absolute pleasure watching the joy on my son's face as he experiments with different mixes and techniques. Most importantly was the quality of what we acquired. We looked at different cheaper options and even looked at making our own still. Ultimately we decided to spend a little more and get a better quality product, and what we got did not disappoint. At the end of the day you get what you pay for, and the quality of the Spirits Turbo 500 (T500) Copper Condenser & Alembic Pot Condenser is exceptional and I expect we will get many years of good use - it is worth the investment. The system is easy to use and the quality of the result is excellent. In addition, we purchased in the middle of the pandemic when supplies were low. Caleb was really good in keeping us informed on the status of our order, and immediately delivered each and every component as it arrived. Everything was well packed and we got everything we expected. All in all a very positive experience."

        Q&A

        Do you ship to Thailand, plus my billing address is in the UK Thanks Geoff
        Hi Geoff, unfortunately we don't do global shipping from our Australian site, however feel free to check out our global site, hopefully you can find something there that suits: https://distilleryking.com/
        Hi folks, Thinking of buying a Turbo 500 and I am keen to try making whiskeys. How many times can you use the oak spiral? Is it a single use deal, or can you use it more frequently?
        Hey there! You can use it more than once, with decreasing effect each time. If you want a strong oak flavour each time a new one is preferred. If you're happy with something more mild, reuse is fine.
        Hello How do I get a licence from ATO? thanks Henry
        Hi Henry, we wrote on article on how you can do that here: https://distilleryking.com.au/blogs/news/is-it-illegal-to-distil-alcohol-in-australia
