Stainless 4 Inch Diameter Mile Hi Flute
This unit has a lead time of 6-8 weeks from date of order.
Stainless 4 Inch Diameter Mile Hi Flute professional distillery tower with a 4″ diameter stainless column and 3″ Sight glass allows you to see all the action. This column includes 6 stainless sections with copper perforated plates and down comers. This completely modular still allows you to run 1,2,5,10 sections to give you as much or as little reflux as you desire. Complete with shotgun condenser and dephlegmator. With the built in parrot, you can see the percentage of alcohol real time throughout the run.
This modular design of this professional distillery tower allows you to add in a column extension with copper packing and raschig rings to get more reflux or add a sight glass with screened gasket to be used as a gin basket or infusion chamber to infuse the vapor with flavor.
All sections are made of copper and each section comes apart for easy cleaning. Sight glass, dephlegmator, shotgun condenser and parrot are made of durable easy to clean stainless.

Even though I’m a novice Distiller, I was determined to own the very best I could get. I decided on the Mile Hi Flute.
My Flute was delivered safe and well packed. I watched the assembly video and attached it to a keg with the 2×4 reducer/adapter. (I discovered I needed an extension to allow room for the “down-comer” on the bottom copper plate stage, which interferes with the taper of the 2×4 reducer, Mike was VERY helpful resolving this)
My Brother and I did a vinegar and water run to clean and check for leaks. (Flute was VERY CLEAN as delivered. But it’s safer to run vinegar/water to check for leaks.) Once this was done, we emptied the boiler/keg and did a 50/50, vodka/water run. WOW! I’m a novice but this piece of equipment runs very well! Almost runs itself. Very easy and intuitive to run. We put 2 gallons of watered down cheap vodka in at 20% strength. We did the run and in 40 minutes got almost a half gallon of 80% out of it. Nice. And that cheap vodka came out smoother at 160 proof than the original 80 proof. ( it IS obviously stronger and “warmer” of course, but smooth) We can’t wait to run an actual sugar wash. I don’t expect any problems. I DO expect my skills to improve as I learn to get the most out this excellent piece of equipment. THANKS, to Mile HI and to Mike for his personal customer service!

Wow. The quality of this flute is incredible.
Built like a tank. I was worried that it may be to heavey for my keg boiler, but no problems at all. My first run came in at 65% abv and the second run was 76% abv. Not sure what % the beer started out at, but impressive for the first runs with no adjustment of the dephlegmator. I will say the packaged was damaged by the shipper, but only a few scratches so I did not report it to Mile Hi.

Got my Mile High Flute, as I emptied the box I was so impressed with the quality and fine craftsmanship of the product. Truly a piece of equipment that will last a lifetime and beyond, I would go as far as to call it a work of art.
There was an issue with my order, a single e-mail and the Mile High guys were on it, a phone call from the service manager and the problem was taken care of swiftly and professionally without question or delay. You guys have earned a customer for life.
Thanks !
