Fake for a Moonshine Machine (False Bottom)

What is a False Bottom?

A false bottom, also known as a dummy disk, is a slotted disc that sits on the bottom of your moonshine still's boiler. It prevents thick mashes, like those made with fruits or grains, from scorching by creating a space between the heat source and the mash. This allows for a gentler distillation process, preserving the delicate flavors and aromas of your moonshine.

Benefits of a False Bottom:

• Prevents Burning: As mentioned above, the false bottom keeps your mash from coming into direct contact with the heat, eliminating the risk of burning and ruining your batch.
• No More Filtration: With a false bottom, you can skip the messy and time-consuming step of filtering your mash before distillation. The slots in the disc allow the clear liquid to pass through while catching any solid particles.
• Easy to Use and Clean: False bottoms are generally made of stainless steel, making them durable and easy to clean. Simply rinse them with warm water after each use and store them in a dry place.
• Versatility: False bottoms come in various sizes to fit different still capacities, making them a versatile tool for any moonshiner.

How to Use a False Bottom:

1. Wash the false bottom with warm water before your first use.
2. Place the false bottom on the bottom of your still's boiler.
3. Pour your mash into the boiler, making sure it covers the false bottom.
4. Attach the still head and condenser, then begin the distillation process.
