Tins invention relates to the distillation of alcoliolic liquidsin vacuo, pnd at such a temperature as will not kill theyeast which is present, and so as to permit the residuedeprived of its alcohol to undergo a further this purpose a still of special construction is employed,as shown in A, Btill; A, condenser; B, tank in which holh thesevessels arc suspended; C, receptacle to receive distillate,and containinjr within it a partition, c, composed of con-centric rings with openings therein, forming a tortuouspassage from centre to circumference; D, final distillatetank connected with C by pipe d; F, pipe supplying the stillA with liquor from tank E ; F, pipe to convey residualliquor after distillation to tank E; G, hydraulic vacuumpump; ;/, water inlet to pump; a is a coil of steam pipewithin the still for supplying such heat as may be required,« being inlet pipe aud a- outlet pipe. The operation of dis-tilling is performed as follows:—On starting, the still,condenser, and their connexions are full of air. The pumpis .set in operation removing the air and filling the tank Bwith liquid. As soon as the air has been exhausted, tliecock/in the pipe F is opened, and the still suppHed withthe required amount of liquor to be operated upon. Thecock / is then closed
