Description
8 Gallon with 2 Inch Hybrid 4 in 1 Distiller
This unit has a lead time of 2-4 weeks from date of order.
The 8 Gallon with 2 Inch Hybrid 4 in 1 Distiller is a neat design. A 30″-tall column, a flexible top with a condenser arm, and a spacious essential oil basket are some of the key features included with the 4-in-1 Hybrid Distiller. This 4 in 1 system works as any of the following configurations:
A 32-inch reflux distiller, essential oil distiller, a 2-inch pot still, and a stainless steel filter unit. Perfectly convenient for any distilling needs and an intricate system leaves many possibilities for your tower.
Stock tower includes a digital thermometer, 2″ rubber bung, 1 2″ clamp, and 2 2″ gaskets. The Stainless Steel upgrade for 69.99 adds a 2.5″ dial thermometer as a replacement for the digital thermometer, and an NPT fitting to tighten the dial thermometer down in place of the bung, as well as an extra clamp and gasket.
The 8 Gallon milk can will come with an additional clamp and gasket for the 2″ cap , and a half-inch threaded plug. The 8 gallon boiler can be used with gas burner, electric hotplate or the electric heating element. A free bag of yeast is included with every still purchase.

I have run several several batches in the reflux mode and get about 90% and yet to have a failure. The best I have made is with an
old Foxfire recipe with open polinated white corn, malted, no yeast. Distilled slowly in the pot mode without the tower, cooled with
ice water. Exquisite!!!! Ave 100 proof single twist. Charcoal filtered with the tower full.

I received this still a few weeks ago, and I could not be more satisfied with it. I’ve run two stripping runs and two reflux runs,
with the last reflux run yesterday. I have nearly a gallon of 93% EtOH ready to cut now. My neighbor stopped by while it was running,
and said he couldn’t believe how little I paid for it. Even my wife thinks it looks great!

The workmanship on this system is amazing. The careful welds, fitting, and polishing are clear to all eyes. This things belongs
in the living room as a show piece.
And it works as advertised. Easy to set-up, operate, and clean. My first batch was amazing. Once this thing gets going it just rolls.
I have run as a reflux and a pot still.
I have also used it as the carbon filter.

Haven’t had a chance to operate it yet. Solid build. Can had a dent in the side. I straightened it out as best I could.
I thought the unit would have related instructions. Received none. I got the multiple use unit. Wanted to use it for water purification,
essential oils, and the obvious. Have been doing research to find out how to operate the unit. The can comes with 2 fittings,
one large and one small. I have no idea what they are for and didn’t see anything on the web site to indicate what they are for.
Will Rodgers said, “Everyone is dumb, just about different things”. Some instructions would be handy when someone orders the product.

I have a still that I built myself and it works alright, but it’s hard to clean and keep looking nice. this still worked perfectly
the first time. I ran some vinegar through it to clean it out, then ran a sugar wash through it. I was getting high proof on my first run
without any fussing around. I’m actually in the middle of cleaning my carbon now so I can use the lid and tower as a filter unit to polish
my distillate for use as a neutral spirit. Thanks Mile Hi for a great product. Best quality, no questions. Don’t bother looking elsewhere.
This is the only place you need to come for all of your distilling products.

Decided I needed to learn to use a still on a whim and after a bit of research and some advise from MHD I ended up with this one.
It works awesome! First try and it was putting out ultra high % ETOH. Very cool.

This unit is extremely well made. The SS welding is among the best I’ve seen, the finish is incredible. I was wowed when I unpacked it and impressed with the solid quality of each metal component. It cleans up easily and is very heavy duty. It works well with the 120VAC heat controller with the 2Kw heater; constant heat output control, no surges. There are no problems running this on a regular house 15amp circuit. Very well done MHD!
As one reviewer put it “no need to shop anywhere else”!

So far have processed 10 essential oil distillations from indigenous plant sources here in a high desert location. Have also run 4 sugar washes thus far in this unit and…………….can’t tell you how thrilled I am with the performance, it is beyond my expectations!!! Exceedingly pleased with the investment. The metal fabrication is awesome, pure magic from the metal magicians! Wow, quality goods of the finest kind. You will not be disappointed with this purchase.
Pros: outstanding attention to detail, quality the likes of such disappeared with the Dusenbergs!
Very easy to load, clean and assemble.
Work of metal art, pleasing to behold and easy keep that way!
Engineering and physics must be right in order to achieve the outstanding performance.
Great company to work with, even putting up with all my pestering questions.
Quick response for orders placed.
Cons: the ss screen at the bottom of the herb pot is a pain to deal with. Taking it in and out often for e. oil runs could – should not be so challenging. Also, the screen hole size could be smaller to allow for finer cut material to stay in place, and/or offer one as an accessory.
That’s it, otherwise, all is well and…………………….
Thank you Mile Hi for offering such a versatile design, makes my day.

Shipping was slow due to all of the current distribution issues. Communication was excellent, cant wait to run some product thru 😉

I really appreciate the metal workmanship. I used to be a welder and the quality of workmanship/craftsmanship is outstanding. Delayed shipping was due to materials availability, not a result of MileHi Distilling itself, and they told me that would be the case when I placed my order.
I’m really happy with this selection. I got the 8 gallon for its diversity, size, and ease of operation. If I go with a larger still later, it will be purchased through MileHi Distilling. I have not run any essential oils through yet, but have no doubts about it working that way.
After initial assembly and a check for leaks, I plugged it in and made a test run of just water to make sure I understood its functions. No problems there at all.
This still is everything I had decided to make for myself in terms of design but found MileHi Distilling had already done that! The quality material and workmanship cannot be topped, and the communication is just as good.
I will be working with them for a long time to come.
