15 Gallon You-Build "EZ KIT" Advanced Model with EZ Seal Cap and 4 inch Thumper Port Copper Moonshine Still
Lifetime warranty · Hand built in Pittsfield, NH · Checkout is handled securely by our sister store MoonshineStills.com.
This 15 gallon copper moonshine still comes as an EZ KIT, a you-solder DIY build. We do the precision work. The 20 oz copper arrives pre-cut, rolled, and embossed. You clamp the parts, solder the seams, and finish the still yourself. It suits hands-on builders who want American Copper Works quality at a lower cost. The Advanced Model adds a stainless EZ Seal Cap on the pot and a 4" fruit/access port on the 3 gallon thumper.
The kit includes a 15 gallon pot, 3 gallon thumper, 3 gallon worm, 3/8" copper coil, and temperature gauge. It also has the fittings, pipe, ferrules, gaskets, hardware, lead-free solder, and flux. You supply a propane tank and torch head. The sheet is 20 oz, 22 gauge, 99.9% pure copper. That is much heavier than the thin copper on cheap imported stills, so you are building on solid metal. Every alchemist needs a vessel worth trusting, and this one is built by your own hands.

Frequently asked questions
What tools do I need to build this kit?
You need a propane tank and torch head, which are not included. You also need clamps and basic hand tools. The solder, flux, and all the fittings and hardware come in the box, along with a build booklet and tutorial video.
What do the EZ Seal Cap and 4" thumper port do?
The stainless EZ Seal Cap clamps onto the pot for a fast, clean seal, so there is no need for flour paste. The 4" port on the thumper lets you add fruit or herbs for flavor and makes cleaning easier.
Is it legal to own and use this still?
Under US federal law you can buy and own a still of any size and use it for distilled water, essential oils, and similar non-alcohol uses. Making spirits to drink at home is not legal without a federal permit from the TTB, even for personal use, though a free TTB fuel alcohol permit lets you make ethanol for fuel. State and local laws vary and can be stricter, so check yours; we don't give legal advice, and you can read more in Are stills legal to own?
