I was searching the internet and found a local still for sale. I contacted the owner about the still. They didn't really give me a whole lot of details about it. However they did send me this photo
and told me that they would take $100 for it. What is it and is this a fair price?
I believe it's some type of Reflux Still but i'm not sure. I'm also unclear as to the size of the cooker.
If this turns out to be legit then i'll stop building my pot still and just use this.
advice please.
thanks!

Based on the column condenser tubes it looks like a PSII (2") with standard kettle -- but not the HC. In any case, that's a great price.

I bought it today...for under $100.

I have this still plus a bag of copper packing and a box of clear tubes to which I have no idea what they connect to. It came with four pales and a propane cooker. Now i'm gonna need help setting this thing up, anyone know where i can find a manual?

Try giving the folks at Brewhaus a call.

BTW: you should find a small id plate tacked on the top of the upper column section with the serial number, etc. There should be no need for you to share the number with anyone -- AFAICT that's how you would be tracked if you bought it direct. Vendors apparently have to keep lists that are available to the government upon request.

For a start you could the "distiller Operation" and look at "New set-up-Help. That should help a little.

That is a heck of a deal Sir. You are a smart chopper.
