The ultimate continuous production platform for large-scale distilleries.
When your operation demands industrial-scale output without sacrificing purity, this 2000L multi-column distillation system delivers. Built as a fully integrated, skid-mounted production line, it pairs a massive copper pot still with three independent rectification columns and a dedicated finishing column. It is engineered for distilleries that need to produce premium vodka, gin base, and neutral grain spirit at volumes that batch systems simply cannot match.
Three columns. One finishing column. Total control.
At the heart of this system are three distinct copper rectification columns, each equipped with multiple bubble cap plates and sight glasses. This multi-stage architecture allows for precise fractional separation at every stage of the run. A fourth, smaller finishing column provides an additional polishing pass, ensuring your final spirit reaches up to 95% ABV with exceptional smoothness. You can isolate heads, hearts, and tails with surgical accuracy, batch after batch.
A 2000L copper pot still built for serious volume.
The centerpiece is a 2000L pure copper boiler with a hand-hammered onion dome, mounted on a durable stainless steel base with a diamond-embossed finish. The all-copper vapor path acts as a natural catalyst, stripping away harsh sulfides and congeners. The result is a remarkably soft, clean spirit—even at high volumes. The large, quick-opening manway makes loading and cleaning straightforward, while the explosion-proof agitator handles high-solids washes safely.
Skid-mounted design for a streamlined distillery floor.
Unlike sprawling column stills that require extensive on-site piping, this 2000L system is mounted on a single stainless steel skid. All piping, valves, and sight glasses are integrated into one compact unit. This design simplifies installation, reduces plumbing costs, and keeps your production floor organized and efficient. The integrated CIP spray balls and hot water tank make deep cleaning fast and thorough.
Built for continuous, industrial-scale operation.
This is not a hobbyist’s setup. Every component—from the shell-and-tube condensers to the sanitary Tri-clamp connections—is selected for durability and ease of maintenance. The semi-automated control system with digital gauges puts pressure, temperature, and reflux control at your fingertips, ensuring repeatable results run after run.

1. Material & Craftsmanship
Heavy-Duty Hybrid Boiler (Copper Inner, Hammered Stainless Outer): The massive 2000L boiler features a high-purity red copper inner bowl to catalyze the removal of sulfides and unwanted congeners. It is encased in a heavy-duty, diamond-hammered 304 stainless steel jacket, providing exceptional structural rigidity, superior thermal insulation, and maximum durability for continuous industrial operation.
Elongated Copper "Trumpet" Onion Head & Vapor Path: The boiler is topped with a beautifully crafted, elongated copper expansion chamber featuring a flared "trumpet" neck. This design allows for optimal vapor expansion and natural reflux, significantly enhancing the purity of the spirit before it enters the column bank. The entire primary vapor path, including the connecting piping, is fabricated from pure red copper.
Integrated Multi-Column Skid Construction: The core of this system is a single, unified skid featuring five distinct rectification columns (four tall copper columns and one smaller copper column) mounted on a heavy-duty, diamond-hammered stainless steel chassis. This compact, integrated design ensures perfect alignment, simplifies installation, and saves significant floor space compared to separate freestanding towers.
Precision Mirror-Polished Finish & Sanitary Fittings: All wetted surfaces feature a mirror-polished finish, ensuring maximum hygiene and preventing organic residue adhesion. All connections use heavy-duty tri-clamp fittings with food-grade silicone gaskets, guaranteeing a perfectly vapor-tight seal and effortless disassembly for cleaning (CIP).
2. Functional Design
2000L Industrial-Scale Capacity: Designed for large-scale distilleries and industrial spirit production. The 2000L working volume delivers massive batch throughput, making it the ideal choice for continuous, high-demand vodka, neutral grain spirit (NGS), or high-proof whiskey production.
Advanced 5-Column Fractional Distillation System: This system is the ultimate tool for achieving exceptionally high-proof, ultra-pure spirits. The five interconnected columns work in series, each providing an additional stage of fractional distillation. This cascading effect precisely separates volatile impurities and congeners (like heads and tails), resulting in an incredibly clean, neutral, and smooth final distillate.
Complex Multi-Valve Manifold & Reflux Control: The intricate network of copper and stainless steel piping, combined with a centralized multi-valve manifold, gives the distiller absolute control over the reflux ratio and vapor routing. Operators can precisely direct vapor flow between the boiler and any of the five columns, allowing the system to be tuned for different feedstocks or target proofs. The system can also be configured to operate as a simpler pot still.
Comprehensive Multi-Sight-Glass Observation: Each of the five columns is equipped with multiple strategically placed sight glasses. This allows the distiller to visually monitor the internal bubbling state, vapor rising, and liquid flooding within each individual column in real-time. Combined with high-accuracy dial thermometers, this provides unmatched control for making precise cuts.
Compact Skid-Mounted Design for Space Efficiency: The integrated skid design significantly reduces the overall height requirement of the distillery and keeps all five columns and their associated valves within arm's reach. This ergonomic layout streamlines operation and maintenance, making the system highly efficient for high-volume production.
Clean Electric/Steam Heating & Ergonomic Draining: Optimized for clean electric or steam heating, the boiler guarantees a gentle, rolling boil that prevents scorching and protects the purity of the wash. The large front manway offers effortless access for loading, while the heavy-duty bottom drain valve ensures quick and easy removal of spent grains. All vessels rest on adjustable leveling feet for absolute stability on the factory floor.
What is the exact capacity and typical processing volume of this system?
This is our ZR-DT-2000L model. The total volume of the large copper pot is 2000 liters. For safe and efficient boiling, the recommended working capacity is around 1600L to 1800L (80% - 90% of total volume). It is specifically engineered for large-scale commercial distilleries and industrial spirit producers.
Why does this specific model feature an "Elegant Swan Neck Design"?
The swan neck (also known as the lyne arm) is a crucial component for vapor dynamics. This design increases the vapor path length, allowing for more contact time with the copper. This promotes better reflux within the neck itself, removing more impurities and providing additional surface area for flavor refining. It results in an exceptionally clean, high-proof vodka with a velvety smooth mouthfeel.
What are the main benefits of the "Skid-Mounted" configuration for a 2000L system?
A 2000L still is massive and complex. By pre-assembling the entire system (pot, columns, condensers, pumps, and piping) on a unified stainless steel skid at our factory, we drastically reduce the on-site setup time. This "turnkey" design minimizes factory footprint, eliminates the risk of field assembly errors, and ensures every component works in perfect harmony from day one.
How does the "Integrated Control System" work?
The onboard control system utilizes a Siemens PLC and Schneider Electric components (as listed in the parameters). It provides centralized management of the entire distillation process, allowing operators to precisely monitor and adjust temperature, power input, and reflux ratios from a single panel. This streamlines operations, significantly reduces human error, and ensures consistent batch-to-batch quality.
What is the difference between the "Whisky" and "Vodka" column configurations if I buy this unit?
The "Multi-Spirit Production Capability" means the base system is highly versatile. For Vodka, you use the maximum number of rectification columns and high reflux to strip out all congeners (flavors), producing a neutral 96% ABV spirit. For Whisky (or Brandy), you can modify the operation (bypassing some columns or reducing reflux) to retain more heavy congeners and grain flavors. For Gin, you can easily integrate a gin basket into the vapor path.
