The Highlander Series 20 Gallon Copper and Stainless Steel Pot Still is a traditionally styled, large-capacity distillation system engineered for serious distillers who value craftsmanship, durability, and authentic performance. Designed around classic pot still principles, this system delivers smooth vapor flow, excellent heat stability, and consistent results across demanding production runs.

Constructed from 16 and 18 gauge copper and reinforced with stainless steel components, this still is built for long-term reliability. Unlike mass-produced equipment that relies on soft soldered seams, the Highlander Series is assembled using TIG brazing for all joints, producing stronger, cleaner, and more heat-resistant connections. With integrated sight glass access, precision temperature monitoring, and high-power heating capability, this still is purpose-built for traditional distillation at scale.

Why TIG Brazing And Heavy-Gauge Copper Matter

TIG brazing creates joints that are significantly stronger and cleaner than soldered seams, improving resistance to heat cycling, leaks, and structural fatigue. Combined with 16 and 18 gauge copper, this construction ensures even heat distribution, stable vapor behavior, and long-term performance. This is professional-grade fabrication designed for serious distillation.

Recommended Heating System

To properly power this large-capacity still, we recommend pairing it with:

🔌 11,000 Watt Electric Still Controller & Heating System
