In this video, I explore the whisky-making process and how alcohol distillation works in a simple step-by-step guide. The video dives deep into how a Pot Still works vs a Column Still, double vs triple distillation, why stills are made of copper, shell and tube condensers vs whisky worm tub condensers, how a Spirit Safe works and much more!
The great 3D distillation video was created by Olive Ende and can be found here: www.explanation-avenue.shop
