hawkSTILL 1.0 CONVEX 30 L Distiller - 2 Thumpers

Dive into the world of perfect distillation with our practical Convex-type kit, offering not only exceptional quality and unique style, but also the ability to expand or swap components as your needs evolve.

The Classic Convex 30 L still is a professional, modular still with a 30 L boiler, two thumpers and a condenser. A complete kit made of high-quality stainless steel (INOX), intended for use on all types of stovetops.

Among other things, the product features the following:

• High quality - stainless steel and durable plastic components, tightness, precision joints, operating efficiency, and durability.
• Usable with various heat sources - on electric, induction, ceramic, or gas hobs, or on an electric coil.
• Two electronic thermometers included - providing precise temperature measurements during the distillation process.
• High throughput - the 30 L boiler makes it possible to distil a large volume of liquid (it is recommended not to exceed 90% of capacity).
• Complete kit - the set includes a boiler with domed (Convex) lid, a condenser with two thumpers, two electronic thermometers with batteries, valves for the thumpers, two hoses, a connector for the water supply, mounting components, and instructions.
• Expandable kit - the boiler and lid are compatible with other distillation modules available from BROWIN.

The still is equipped with a 30 L boiler (with a recommended fill of up to 90% of capacity, not less than 25%), a condenser with 2 thumpers, and 2 thermometers, allowing you to carry out distillation without any additional equipment. The kit is suitable for use with various heat sources. Two precise thermometers with probes make it easy to control temperatures – inside the boiler and in the thumper. A PVC hose with a connector enables easy connection of the water inlet and outlet. The silicone hose is used to collect the distillate.

The domed (Convex-type) lid is an innovative design that ensures even condensation of vapor, allowing you to obtain a distillate of excellent taste and aroma. The shape of the lid allows any foaming of the wash or mash without the risk of contaminating the column and its packing.

The dome shape, inspired by classic “swan-neck” alembics, increases the stability of the entire column, even on tall stills, which also translates into greater stability of the entire distillation process. The domed lid has only the main opening used to mount the column.

Using stainless steel from trusted suppliers guarantees that your distillate will be of high quality — clean, free from contaminants and off-aromas.

Our boiler is not only durable but also easy to keep clean, ensuring your distillation experience is always top-notch.

The thumpers allow you to obtain a cleaner, higher-strength distillate. They perform several important functions, including preventing heavier fractions from passing from the boiler into the final product. They also provide a space in which simple redistillation occurs, enabling a cleaner distillate with lower water consumption in the condenser.

Distillation has never been so simple! Years of experience, the search for newer and better solutions, and a commitment to high quality allow us to offer proven, specialist distillation equipment.

The boiler and lid are fully compatible with the distillation modules available from BROWIN - having this still, you can expand it with components such as connectors, reflux units, sight glasses, condensers or side take-offs.
