The VEVOR 13.2 Gal/50L Alcohol Still can hold up to 13.2 gallons or 50 liters, making it a solid choice for those into home brewing and distilling. While it's versatile enough for making whiskey, wine, or brandy, there are a few things you might want to keep in mind.
First off, if you're using a glass cooktop, it's wise to be cautious. The still weighs around 15 pounds and, when full, can get quite hefty. Glass cooktops look nice and clean easily, but you'll want to make sure they can handle the weight.
According to our research, using this still on a glass cooktop might take a bit longer to heat up, especially due to the thickness of the steel pot. This could slow down the process a little. If you're finding that your cooktop isn't heating it efficiently, maybe think about trying a different heat source.
It's designed to work with gas stoves, electric ceramic heaters, and even firewood, so you've got options.
The still also comes with a thermometer, though from what we've found, it might not always be super reliable. Just double-check it to keep an eye on the temperature during your distilling.
In the end, using the VEVOR Alcohol Still is entirely possible on a glass cooktop, just with a bit of extra care. Play around with your heat settings, stick to safety guidelines, and with some patience, you can successfully use it in your home brewing adventures!
