8 Gallon with 2 Inch Econ Pot or Reflux Tower Complete Kit
Attention: This still has a lead time of 5-7 business days
We import our 8 Gallon with 2 Inch Econ Pot or Reflux Tower Complete Kit from China with one simple thing in mind that everyone can appreciate: Cost-Effectiveness.
Very similar in design to Mile Hi Distilling’s Dual Purpose Tower, the Econ will give you the same output of the Dual Purpose, and save you some money. This still is unique, as it offers a 3″ Dial Thermometer that latches onto the side, rather than the usual 2.5″ that affixes to the top. Designed to work as both a pot and reflux still, with a removable bottom extension for faster output with whiskeys. Truly perfect for hobbyists looking to get into the craft and experiment. The additional benefit of the complete kit means you’ll receive all important products needed for distillation purposes. The propane stove (SQ-14) will be ordered by us, and should arrive just in time for you to start cooking!
Given the unique design of the Econ, there’s no need for anything on top or any upgrade. All Ecos will come stock with 2 2″ clamps, 3 2″ gaskets, a 3″ dial thermometer, and a special 1.5″ clamp, gasket and NPT to help mount your thermometer.
The added 8 Gallon milk can will come with an additional clamp and gasket to hold a 2″ cap in place, and a 1/2″ threaded plug to keep outside contamination out of your milk can. A heating element can screw into this space with ease as well. So you can start right away, we send a free bag of yeast with every still!

Water lines/tubes are too thick and no matter how hard you tight the clamps, the water is dripping through. Other than that, the product is good.
Great company and great Still. Received my order and was faster than I thought getting here. My 8 gallon pot had a little dent but mile hi was quick to take care of there customers. So ran twice already and produced great 140 proof with great flavor. By far the greatest still I’ve ever owned. Definitely wanna upgrade to heating element eventually. Must admit this company has me sold on all there products cause before I bought this still i was buying grains, yeast and books. Mile hi has a customer for life if that tells you anything.
I have been doing some reading and am new to this endeavor. After considering whether to build my own or purchase, I came across Mile Hi while looking at options. The quality seemed superior to others so I decided to go with them.
I ordered this kit as it had the least lead time and was complete. Even though this is an import from China, the quality is very apparent. I also ordered the heat element and controller (excellent quality) so I can do the process indoors. I plan to make other use of the burner.
Evan and Devin were quick to respond to inquiries and they made successful effort to beat the stated lead time of delivery. Looking forward to my new hobby!!
I bought this still as a starter. I have not used it yet but received all parts to still in good order per website description. Very pleased with quality of products and friendly to deal with. Thank you
For an excellent starting kit, this is the one that I’ve had for several years, purchased by my wife and kids. It includes all that you need to get started. I don’t use the burner – our stove has a 3KW electric burner, but found that it is a great burner for chili, etc. when outdoors. It’s your best starting kit.
