    best still on the market. this still is far better than the one i had. it turns out 95%abv everytime. it is so easy to set and use and the premium pot makes cleanup a breeze.anyone that wants to distill anything needs to buy this still. along with the service that they provide why buy anywhere else?having dealt with other companies in this hobby i can say thay are the best i have found and they are so good i don't plan on using anyother supplier.

    Outstanding!. This distiller is absolutely outstanding!! The high quality materials are remarkable and the workman ship is impressive. I highly recommend upgrading to the premium kettle you will not regret it! The premium kettle is heavy duty and a work of art! My distiller was on back order for 24 days and I will tell you it was well worth the wait and far exceeded my expectations! Highly recommended!! A++++

    Essential Extractor II Still. Excellent product. With 5 gallons of fermented table sugar and turbo yeast, I am able to consistantly get 2.5 gallons of 80 proof alcohol from this still. It takes about 2.5 hours before my temp reaches 178deg at which time I stop. Granted, the alcohol that comes out of my still is generaly 160 proof. I then freeze it and dillute with filtered water down to 80. My mash fermenter is a 20 gallon bucket. When filled with 17 gallons of mash, I usualy get about 5.5 to 6 gallons of finished 80 proof spirit. Delicious!

    Perfect product for near pure ethanol production. This is THE all in one kit to start making ethanol ASAP. It is especially well suited to producing clean 94 ABV distallates from sugar wash. Also makes decent grain based distillate in pot mode, but reflux is where this thing really shines. If you get the gold starter kit as well, you'll be trying your first batch in a week!

Anyone considering buying a still, look no further this is the one you want and need! you will not be dissapointed! It is the best one you will come across. Customer service is just as good as the equipment! You have a great thing going here!

    Perfect for first timers. I purchased the Essential Extractor PSII.This is the first time that I ever used a Distiller and never realized that it could be so easy. On my first batch I use a sugar mash and came out with 174 proof. I recommend this product to anyone.

    Le Fee Verte (Absinthe). I sampled some Absinthe once while boarding a jet in Toronto...I never was much of a 'drinker' per se. This stuff is 'wild'...I started purchasing commercial varieties from Europe over the net...some are stronger than others (thujone levels)...did some research on original recipies from a hundred years ago...decided to try and make the stuff myself...I purchased this unit (Essential Extractor Pro Series II) from Brewhaus...found herb growers in N.Calif...fresh artemesia absinthium and fennel is shipped to me overnight-frieght...the first batch, I was reday for anything; foul taste, low levels of alcohol and thujone......BUT, this was not the case...the elixir was magnificent. Thujone levels the highest I've ever experienced. Stronger than 'King of Spirits Gold' from Czechoslovakia. Customer support from Brewhaus has been excellant. The product I purchased (Essential Extractor Pro Series II) is superior. This whole 'hobby' has been actually quite easy to carry out...good luck...Mark

    PSII. Wow what a deal! I searched high and dry to find a nice personal sized unit from someone that was trust worthy. Brewhaus delivered! Did my first run yesterday and am very happy with the units performance and the quality of the product.HIGHLY RECOMMENDED!

    Great, but voltage ratings to be remembered. Bought the fermenter starter kit gold and a hotplate with the distiller. All arrived at these far shores intact and without any damage. But remember the hotplate and water pump are for 120 volts, which does not work in this country - had to get local stuff. All my stupid questions were answered with great patience and clarity. Thanks for the best of service. Have done two runs - one reflux and one traditional. Essential oil extraction next. Am having great fun.
