It's a very good quality, easy to use still. Although the Essentials bundle comes with a fermenting cask, we start with the cheapest 4l cask wine we can find. Traces of aroma remain from what you use for the wash. This is attractive. There is a separate botanicals basket for the still for those wanting to make gin. It's only $19 but I'd prefer it included in the bundle. The instructions are pretty good, but you'll need to do further reading. The first 20ml of spirit, which will start dripping out about an hour after commencing, is mostly methanol and should be discarded. That's not included in the instructions. You'll need to estimate the % ethanol in your wash and make sure you only gather that amount plus a bit more to make up a 60% abv distillation. Discard the last 100ml as it potentially contains more complex alcohols which can taint the flavour. Again, this is not covered in the instructions. Do these small things and the quality of what you distill will be superb. Read full review

Super easy to use, would thoroughly recommend it. Our first batch of whisky tastes great, onto the next batch with a single malt flavour in the offering. Testing to see which we like best.

The instructions are easy to follow with lots of information provided and the unit itself is of sturdy construction. It was very easy to use for a first - timer and it came with everything I needed to make my first batch. Cheers

It's a great starter kit, you can upgrade later after you learn, easy to use and clean, clear instructions, tastes really good and fairly cheap.

Easy to use, Quick to reach the end product as long as you realize that you only get 2.5 liters from the 7.5 liter wash, my first batch came out perfectly even though I made a couple of Boo Boos in the beginning, I will not hesitate to recommend this product!
