Should you get a CCVM Reflux Still? Reviewing my still

People ask me all the time, "should I build a CCVM still?" or "should I buy a CCVM still?".
I have been using my one for well over a year now. So I think its time to review it.
Spoiler alert: The CCVM is still the best choice for a beginner (IMHO)

Awesome video bud I have a reflux and have learned a bunch from you and actually put my 1st gen of ujssm down a week ago. So much info from you keep it up and thank you.

[@jttech44]

If you go to a 3 inch column you'll be able to run heaps faster and you can use the regular 2inch port and just get a converter/expander. You'll have to either make a bigger coil combined with a reducer so you can stay 2inch on top, or get a 3inch Tee with a 2inch product output (better). The new coil can be stainless steel dryer line, which is much easier to manipulate and has more surface area than copper of the same size. The idea is, your reflux will be much more efficient with a 3inch column, and it's easier to adjust the coil as the 'butter' zone is much larger. The additional volume in your column will also let you run quite a bit faster so you could potentially do it in one go.

[@jamesgrey8093]

Love those plates

[@fishslayer8533]

Who the hell are you the voice sounds familiar lol

[@reesewawarosky1058]

Well I found that if you pack the copper tubing with sugar it let's you bend without crimping. Then all you need to do is hang it upside-down in a oven heat it slowly until the sugar melts out. No blockage no crimps and perfect bends.

[@manwithbeers]

I used coarse salt to bend a 1/4" coil. worked awesome.

[@reesewawarosky1058]

Salt works too but you can reuse the sugar in the next batch.

[@somerandomguy32]

Salt resolves in water easier than accidentally clogging a line with melted sugar

[@njrndmshit]

Plus with salt you hook up the coil to the tap and turn it on full pressure, might be blocked, but eventually dissolves the salt and works it's way through and clears out

[@asdfghjklkjhgfdsa555]

Sand works too

[@SimpleBiscuit]

Had no idea what a ccvm was, was just about to pause and google it then you started explaining what it is lol

[@StillIt]

Ayyyyeeeeee how's that for timing!

[@ClashClash89]

lel at around 15:55 'stepping up from 2x 4kwh to 2x 4kwh' ^^D wonder what the actual intention was... like upgrade to 2x 8kwh? or was the original only 2x 2kwh? But seriously: thx for explaining stuff in a idiot-proof way. i had never even heard about ccvm before stumbling over your channel and didn't even know what a reflux still was. I had seen still with bubble plates and all, but had no clue what the heck was going on there. I really only knew the simple pot-still design from chemistry class and moonshiners. ^^)

[@1FrenchConnection1]

There is so much variables between size of your column and the heating output. When I build my still I put a valve between the dephlegmatore and the shotgun condenser which help me to control the reflux. I did hit the threshold of my 2 inch column. This is a very good topic to touch on that I’m experiencing right now! Could be a good debate!

[@wolfy9005]

Wound my first coil yesterday, 1/4" copper. Followed the guide on HD using the 16mm and 31mm tubes as formers, clamped the 16mm in the lathe and went at it(because it's easier to hold the bigger chuck than it is a tiny tube). Most flattening I got was on the transition to the outer coil, but only minor. If I have to do another one, I'll probably go 8" instead of 6", and single coil with a cold finger.

[@lacaval]

Women: Size doesn't matter. Also Women: 5:50 Sorry Jesse, couldn't control myself :))

[@340wbymag]

If I was in your neighborhood I'd have to knock on your door so I could say thank you for all your videos. This video was especially illuminating for me. I operated distillation columns while working in an oil refinery and it is awesome to see such similar technology here. I am definitely impressed!

For those who are wondering what CCVM means: Condenser Controlled Vapor Management still.

this is my go to page, sorry george! i think i am going to copy your tower in 2" with shot gun condenser. i have a t500. it works good. since i am retired i make hand sanitizer, now i can have for fun, thx jessie from yuma AZ

[@Sean-John]

PLEASE how did you bend your copper coil yourself without kinking???

[@dusting5594]

Hey brother... If you put a mini shotgun condenser just below the exit point above the sight glass and adjust the water flow with a valve you could just cap the top... Also getting a better reflux and control of your product... Cheers!!!

[@StillIt]

Yeah, have though about adding a dephlag. Cheers mate 🥃

[@jamesgrey8093]

Jesse i have girl i like and follow do u know how i could exchange my citinship ship from cdn to nz i will be good , ha ha she cute her name is trivna moses , im a good guy ,,could help you with yer show....

[@lacaval]

For coiling copper you can close one end by soldering, fill the tube with water and the solder the other end too. It will just as easy as using sand or salt filler but the water will get out by itself when you open the tube.

[@whitestonedistillery429]

Dude! Thanks again for an awesome video! I’m in the process of building my still now and I think I’ll be changing up a lot of my design based on what you told us. If I’m distilling wine/mead, would I still want to run it as a pot still in order to keep the original flavors?

[@StillIt]

I would run it in pot still mode for those. Glad they help mate :)

[@Errol.C-nz]

@@StillIt a tip for bending kink free tube.. wind into large loops.. then plug one end & fill with water.. plug other end & freeze it.. will NOT kink even for tight tight loops & bends.. cheers from nz.. kiwi to kiwi

[@mattzap9298]

Having just upgraded to a 4 inch flute/column/bubble plate still the speed of production is a thing of joy. No more multiple strips then spirit runs when doing flavoured products. 1 run and you have a finished product ready for ageing. Control is magic, for example right now I am filling a 50l barrel with single malt. I have selected the abv where I find my best flavours and run to that. Keep saving up your hobby money I recommend banging in some plate sections, and you are on your way to something very different.

[@montygordon3979]

Id be curious to see your setup. Are you going from the 2" flange on top of the keg to a 4" column? How many bubble plates are you running? How tall is your column? Sounds like a nice setup!

[@mattzap9298]

2inch from standard keg top into a 2 to 4inch reducer. 4 x 4 inch bubble cap tee sections. First section of still.is 4 inch then it comes over the top into shotgun condenser in all 2 inch pipe. For flavoured spirit it is approx 1.8m tall and with packed section for neutral it is approx 2.4m tall.

[@WhiskeyDearg-MichaelS]

Wow! Babyface! I saw this older video and had to jump in to view.

[@SyBernot]

The very first thing I made was the heat exchanger (the coil). They are super simple to make. Take your copper, fill it with water, put a couple plastic capplugs on each end and put it in the freezer overnight. The water will freeze and expand and leave you with a stiff tube that you can then form around another pipe. If you work too slow and the water begins to thaw just pop it back in the freezer. No kinks, super tight coils and spacing and you can get away with some pretty radical twists. Instead of varying your coil exposure at the head why not just vary the flow rate in the coil?

[@StillIt]

Cheers mate, I may actually give that a go next time. I guess the idea is that it can be tricky to alter water flow accurately and consistently. Our water pressure fluctuates by about 150% regularly :s So you can crank the water and adjust via position. In saying that I have not tried running a still with coolant flow.

[@bpeacock801]

It may be worth saying that type L copper does not fit the ferrules. I had to grind away on all the copper to have them fit properly. Type M or type DMV will fit the ferrules very nicely.

[@StillIt]

Very good point man! I got lucky with mine, but nice to know the actual types! Thanks mate.

[@bpeacock801]

Sure thing. Great video by the way. Congrats on your 1 million.

[@StillIt]

Thanks mate 👍🥃

[@manchovie]

there are 48mm and 51mm sized ferrules on aliexpress (that fit the standard 64mm/2" tri clamps). All the scrap 2" copper I found had a 49mm inner diameter so I got the 48mm ones.

[@scotts.2624]

It is very irritating for people to use acronyms without them saying what they stand for and what it means.

[@danssv8]

Do you run a Pid temperature controller???

[@bernarddeham4787]

Don't go for a Boka LM... Just add a gate valve between your T and your shotgun and you get VM, the coil should not be too low otherwise it'll cool down your SS T junction. You could connect the shotgun outlet to the coil inlet... The thermometer should be at the centre of your T junction, but it's too late now... Your column is a bit too short 120cm would be fine , isolate your column too, up to the T junction (all IMHO) Nixon & McCaw's "The Complete Distiller" will be very helpful.

[@chefe2152]

Whats the most you run through it? Neutrals? Rum,whiskey?

[@kimbodious]

60cm 2” column is really short bro. Get more length in your stalk and you’ll find the system is so easy to stabilise. I use the sightglass on my CCVM to monitor the level of condensate bubbling away on top of the packing. I boost the heating to the point where I can maintain a constant level of the bubbling condensate - that way I know I am running at optimal heating as far as the amount of packing used. I’ve got a vid on my channel showing what that looks like (@ 1460 W). 1.2 litres per hour at azeotrope I got a relative in the States to send me some Corrugated Stainless Steel Tubing CCST, that I used for my Reflux Condenser. It was so easy to twist up. I wove a SS pot scrubber in the “coil” to add more cooling surface area and to help bridge the gap between the walls of the column and the RC

[@StillIt]

Yeah man, I really do need to get a extension for that! I have heard a lot of good things about the CCST, will have to try it out.

[@kimbodious]

get on to the kale recipe for the cheapest cleanest neutral! for a regular fermenter pail 25 grams kale pureed in a litre or so of water 5 kg of raw sugar 1/3 cup of baker’s yeast and 1/3 cup of crushed shell grit for pH buffering ferments are done in 7-10 days yielding 8-10% ABV

Awesome video as usual Jesse. The nearest sizable town to me is about 60 K's. So i brought a ready made complete kit. Problem is i am on tank water so i have to recycle my water for the still, lucky for me a chest freezer was available. I have alot of fruit trees to make wines and spirits from. Just gotta beat the possums to the fruit. Thanx Jesse. All the best to you and the whanau.

That sounds amazing man! I'd love to have that much fruit on the property!

[@luket668]

Is there any reason this build could not be entirely made from tri clamp components using PTFE gaskets? They seem cheap enough on Aliexpress. Cheers

[@StillIt]

Yup you could for sure. But you will need copper in there somewhere.

Lol new viewer first time seeing without the big ass beard

[@dollartreegrower3969]

@Still It great video ! What is CCVM? CCVM. Condenser Controlled Vapor Management: A type of reflux still which is controlled by a movable cooling coil instead of of a valve typical for a VM still.

[@shawnwhitesel7104]

Yeah on the furrule you can get freaking sick machined copper furrules now if you are soldering them on fit really nice put 2 on my column have 2 for my shotgun condenser I'm really happy with them

[@StillIt]

Awesome! Reasonable price?

[@shawnwhitesel7104]

21 dollars for 2 inch on eBay and and hiproof products that's a website and also the seller on eBay they make brass in the same design (lead free)it fits on the outside of the pipe and fits flush on the inside of the pipe i looked at the 4 inch for possibly building a plated column still like 4 bubble plates yeah look at RNW Distilling has videos building stills with his products on here

[@BigEdsGuns]

@@shawnwhitesel7104 You can make your own flange in under 20 minutes using the copper pipe itself and some solder. Use the money you save to buy a PTFE gasket and tri clamp. homedistiller.org/forum/viewtopic.php?t=27056 Just another approach to save money. Cheers!

[@shawnwhitesel7104]

Mate!!!! Love your videos ....Always informative....I have just built a Frankenstein just like yours got all of the parts from Stlll Dragon......Wanted to upload a photo for you but as yet haven't worked that out.......Doing a cleaning run this arvo.....

[@robertfontaine3650]

A couple of naive/stupid questions... When running as a cvvm reflux still is the top of the column effectively open to the air (no pressure)? ... and if so how do you keep from losing alcohol right out the top? Second question... Is it alcohol vapor or liquid that is going off the t-joint to the shotgun condenser. Is there anything at the same height as the T joint in the column that is helping the alcohol head down the correct path or is it a matter of half goes in one direction half goes in the other.... and coming back to the .misunderstanding in the first question where the top is open on the column how is the steam force to go down the shotgun condensor to be condensed if there is no pressure in the column. It seems like I can build this very easily from sanitary fitting and flexible tubing for the column condensor, plus buy a shotgun condensor outright... If the column is 3" should the T and shotgun also be 3"... If 50/50 is the target it seems like they should be an equal diameter ( but I still don't see why the steam is going to go sideways and down without some kind of pressure driving it. doh! thanks for the videos, and your patience. thks, r

[@jamesgrey8093]

Yep the biggar the opening the less time

[@danssv8]

Mine is capped off on top

[@scotmcpherson]

The reason why vapor doesn’t push out the top is because the condensing vapor creates space. Vaporizing expands the material, condesneing reduces it back to original liquid volume, thus you have no pressure and are in balance. Heat is being removed through the reflux process if one wants to know where that is going.

[@BobWalker]

I'm glad you have not found any hitches with it as I modeled mine on it. Mine is inch and three quarters or 44mm but the 50L keg is large enough for any wash I'll make so i don't have to do striping runs and It's easily fast enough for spirit runs. I didn't go to the expense of making it modular I soft soldered it to look like yours though being 44mm my shotgun is only a triple. It was easy to do and works a treat, Thanks.

[@thomasterry4126]

Sir, a quick question if you had a dephlegmator on this design would you put your sight glass at the top of the column below the deplegmator or install it on top of it. Hopefully you or someone could chime in with their opinion. I realize this was an old video just hoping to get lucky you see the comment.

[@ThomasShue]

The ferrule flanges stand alone without the pipe, where do you get these? They aren't in the links.

[@djscottdog1]

My wash still is 30l andbi only used 28mm coloum and i used 15and 22 mm for the concencer , it seem to make great spirit but yours is only twice the size but your tube is 4 times the volume figuring out if mine is too small

Hey bro love ur channel I’m a apprentice sparky in a electrical and refrigeration company with access to various copper bits and pieces I’m looking to build a still based on yours which is exciting my question is with all the spare copper cable we have in our recycling bin can u use cable copper mainly flex cable( fine thin strands but thick cable ) as packing for my column??? After stripping the insulation obviously Not sure if it leaves some sort of chemicals when they insulate it? I would probably run it thru a vinegar run first to be safe

Damn you without the beard

[@BeerWineandShine]

Holly cow you have a face!

[@glleon80517]

A most welcome video since coverage is sketchy in your Build playlist. I like a simple pot still for making whiskey and brandy. It seems to me that your CCVM design with no packing and no Graham condenser on top is still allowing some reflux as the column wall cools the vapor. Reflux leads to higher proof but less flavor. So, when is a column still running in “pot mode” not really a pot still but a de-tuned column still? Any thoughts?

[@dannysands2968]

Is the copper mess acting like your bubbler but better or is it way different all to gather

[@StillIt]

Kinda, it gives a large surface area for the vapour and reflux to interact with each other on. It acts more like an array of bubble plates than a thumper.

[@artooks]

Hi Jesse, can you please tell me which thermometer you used what brand and why did you went larger on the sight glass is there a specific reason, I also have a ccvm still but cannot read the temp correctly I have a tee at the top right side where I attach my thermometer can you please tell me if you correctly read the temp with this setup. thanks.

[@JeremyTaylorNZ]

That is called a Cooling Management still. As a design, it is very commonly used but is not favoured by those-in-the-know, Liquid Management stills like the Bokakob or Vapour Management stills are considered to provide a distiller more control. The Condenser-Controlled Vapour Management still (CCVM) Jesse demonstrates is a much better option than the janky commercial CM stills commonly available
