500 liters DOUBLE RETORT POT STILLS

 

A trademark of Caribbean rum production, double retort stills are essential to achieve the medium and heavy-bodied spirits adored by the world over.

 

A while back, I briefly explored the topic of dunder in rum production, specifically the difference between it and muck pits. While writing about dunder, I mentioned the role of double retort pot stills, sometimes called the Adams still, which were conceived in the early 19th century, and promised a more complete examination of the topic. ‍

 

Rum can be made off of every type of still, including simple pot, single retort, double retort, and column. The double retort still, however, has come to define rum, specifically rum made in Jamaica. Mike Delevante began working at Appleton Distillery in 1963, and during his time there he operated both double retort stills and continuous stills, the introduction of which coincided with significant changes to the flavor profile of Jamaican rum. He now focuses primarily on consulting and designing stills for clients, including Still Austin in Austin, Texas. ‍

 

To understand retort stills, you have to first be familiar with pot distillation, since a retort still is itself a kind of pot still. The most basic pot still has a simple construction: A base pot is connected to an onion or head, which sits atop its opening, which is in turn connected to a tube that slopes downward leading to a condenser.

RUM STILLS

Rum is produced by fermenting and distilling sugarcane molasses or sugarcane juice and is usually aged in oak barrels. Rum can be 

produced using a variety of different styles of stills from small batch pot stills to large production column stills.

Traditional rum distilleries use a pot still with two "thumpers" or retorts. The vapor leaving the thumper has a higher ABV as thumpers 

are used to refine the spirit much the same as a plate in a rectification column.

DOUBLE RETORT POT STILLS

The Physics of Double Retort Pot Stills and Thumpers

Pot stills are the oldest form of distillation and continue to be used across the world, but one of their main limitations is that the maximum ABV 

that can be attained in a single distillation is ~45% from standard 8-10% ABV wash. The small amount of high proof spirit from the first 

distillatillationwill also be highly contaminated with low boiling compounds that range from unpleasant to unsafe, so it has traditionally required at least two pot 

still distillations to produce flavorful, drinkable spirit.

But double distillation is slow and expensive. Each run requires charging the still, consuming lots of fuel to heat it up, and cleaning out the remains 

in the pot after a run is complete. It also requires complex logistics to balance the flow of raw material through mashing, fermentation, and distillation 

so that equipment is being efficiently utilized. Distilling has always been a volume-driven business, so the more time it took to produce marketable 

spirit the less money a distiller was making on the vast amount of capital they had sunk into their plant, inputs, and labor. 

These types of stills are now uncommon, but can still be found in a number of rum distilleries across the Caribbean such as the double retort systems They can also be found in many bourbon distilleries coupled to column stills under the title of 'doubler'or 'thumper'. All perform a secondary or tertiary distillation to boost the ABV of the output without having to manually perform a second or third 

distillation.
