      Great home distillery

      "Bought this as a gift for my husband, I’ve never seen him so excited about anything I’ve bought him before! He set it up straight away and we already have about 8L of vodka within a couple of weeks. I can’t comment on how to use it but from observation, it takes some close folllowing of instructions and watching several YouTube videos. I recommend getting the water flow regulator in your package as it really makes life easier (hubby didn’t realise I had bought that as well and was struggling with water flow at first). The company were fab to buy from, good communication, friendly, fast and efficient delivery. Big thumbs up."

      "I have bought items online for years, but never have I had a seller contact me about my purchases and how my order was progressing but I’ve had continuous contact with Caleb and truly feel like a valuable customer witch doesn’t happen anymore. It’s like I’m shopping at the local Deli and been dealing with each other for years. Cheers guys"

      Q&A

      What are the requirements regarding the ATO if I wish to produce alcohol for my use and are there any fees payable. How easy is it to get the ok from the ATO . Thanks Phil
      Hi Phil, the license is free and best to talk to them directly about requirements however we did write this article on it which you may find informative: https://distilleryking.com.au/blogs/news/is-it-illegal-to-distil-alcohol-in-australia
      Just rang the ATO and was informed that they don't grant permission to own or use a still for personal use. So I am wondering how you and me get around this?
      Hi Damien, that's not true, they're just trying to put you off. If you refer to the legislation (Distillation Regulations 1926) it doesn't mention anything about personal VS business use. In fact "Form 1 - Application for licence to distil spirits" in that legislation actually asks you to list your occupation, it's a very simply form. I don't know why they make it so hard for people wanting to do the right thing. You can argue with them using this legislation and win, as others have. Or if you can't be bothered with that, register your name as an ABN, becoming a sole trader. Everything you buy from us is totally legal. Stills 5L and under are able to be owned without permission. We have boilers over 5L which can be attached to condensers, but they are not stills until you attach them. If you want to do that, it's up to you to seek permission from the ATO to "manufacture" a still over 5L, and then get the licence to produce alcohol with it. Hope that helps!
      How to find specific gravity reading on the meter
      Hiya! You just pop the hydrometer into the wash and it'll sink down, whatever level it sinks to is your specific gravity :)
