Fermenting

The

dried malt (or other grains) is ground and soaked in water, dissolving the sugar and producing wort is then added, and the wort is allowed to ferment, producing wash or low beer. still or patent still

Yeast

Distilling

Pot

Coffey

Heat

is applied directly to the pot containing the mash Alcohol, water and flavor components evaporate
The vapor is richer in alcohol than the liquid Condensing this vapor results in a higher alcohol liquid

The

first distillation produces so-called 'low wines', (25-35% abv) The second distillation produces the colourless spirit, collected at about (70% abv)

Also

called a column still, continuous still or Coffey still Consists of two columns
The

rectifier, has steam rising and wash descending The analyzer carries the alcohol from the wash where it circulates until it can condense
Like

a series of single pot stills, in a long vertical tube.


The

tube is filled with porous packing or bubble plates, creating levels in the tube The rising vapor starts to condense in the cooler, higher level of the column. The temperature of each successively higher stage is slightly lower than the previous stage, and so the vapor in equilibrium with the liquid at each stage is progressively more enriched in alcohol. Can achieve a vapor alcohol content of 96%.
