How to Make a Whiskey Still With a Beer Keg
- 1). Bend the copper tubing around the soda can so you get a coil. Get rid of the can and put the coil aside for a moment.
- 2). Drill a hole on the top of the keg and use the saw to cut around the side of the cap. Remove the central tube from the keg by pulling it from the top.
- 3). Cover the hole you just made on the keg with a rubber stopper. Drill two holes on it. One should be large enough to allow the copper tube to pass and the other one should fit the thermometer. If you cut more than you need, you can use caulk to seal any gaps that may appear.
- 4). Use the rubber mallet to secure the stopper onto the keg and then insert the tube and the thermometer.
- 5). Make a hole on the cap of the water carboy big enough to fit the copper tubing. Place the cap back on the carboy.
- 6). Place the kettle on the campfire stand. Insert the copper tubing on the kettle through the hole on the stopper.
- 7). Insert the other end of the tube into the carboy through the hole on the cap.
