FAQ

Of course, we also sell the specific adapters for the stills separately. This makes it easy to use a still that was originally designed for the Monsieur Cuisine on the Thermomix® TM6 with a new adapter, for example.

You can simply rinse the still and the hoses with clear water and let them air dry.

If more cleaning is required, the screw connections of the still can also be loosened.

That's fine. You can make your own gin with the still.

Schnaps and other alcoholic beverages can also be obtained with the still.

That depends on the country you live in. Here in Germany, the Alcohol Tax Act applies. Based on this, you face a fine if you are caught distilling alcohol!

In other countries, however, the distillation of alcohol is legal.

Here in the DIFUMA store under " Recipes ". In addition, there is also the option of having a new recipe sent to you every month with our newsletter.

That ultimately depends on two factors:

1. The liquid used to distill the parts of the plant.

2. The content of essential oils in the plant parts.

Naturally.

After the required temperature is reached, the distillation takes about 1 hour.

Clear.

It was always important to us to take up the intuitive operation of your thermal food processor and thus make it easy to produce distillates.

Hydrosols should be clear like water or, depending on the hydrosol, slightly but evenly cloudy.

After distillation, the gin has a very high alcohol content and is still clear. It must therefore be diluted with water to the desired strength. Diluting with water (spring water or distilled water) can cause the gin to become cloudy. This is not a problem; it is due to the essential oils from the botanicals.

The question of how can I measure my alcohol content comes up again and again. To do this, you can use an alcohol meter to measure the alcohol content. On this basis, you can then define your alcohol content using spring water or distilled water. There are tables on the Internet where you can clearly see what amounts you need to add to achieve the desired alcohol content.

The question always comes up: how heavy is the DiFUMA and will that make a difference to my food processor? We have had a lot of systems for customers for more than 2 years and have never had any problems or feedback. (approx. 3 kg)

Of course. You can download the operating instructions for all distillation systems here .
