Finally, after many years of experimentation and research,
I can share some up-to-date information about one of the most innovative machines in the mixing world.
Time to
Step-Up!
If you have arrived up here you probably you have an attitude that distinguishes you from the normal and classic Bartender, to the new category of inventors.
It is my great pleasure already now to share my huge congratulations for your curiosity.
GOOD BOY!!!
You must know that this incredible tool in addition to distill all that your mind can imagine, there are some interesting features.
First
is to create the vacuum
Second
adjust the boiling temperature
Third
adjust the refrigeration temperature
Fourth
adjust the distillation speed through rotation.

The peculiarity derives from the fact that it is designed to be connected to a vacuum pump. This pump, by sucking in air from inside the distillation circuit, reduces the pressure inside the system and, consequently, lowers the boiling temperature (evaporation) of the liquid to be treated.
To better understand this concept, consider how the temperature of boiling water changes: on the sea level the water boils at 100 ° C while in high mountains, for example at 4000 meters above sea level, it boils at 86 ° C. This happens because atmospheric pressure is lower.
With the rotary evaporator it is possible to distill even at 20 ° C.
In addition to lowering the pressure, sucking the air out of the system, has another consequence: within the circuit the amount of oxygen will be extremely low, significantly reducing the oxidation of what you are going to use.
So, by recapitulating, vacuum-distilling involves a greater respect for all those substances that can be altered by oxidation or high temperatures, giving you the opportunity to obtain:
First 100% customized product,
Second, you will get a qualitative and performing product at an aromatic and olfactory level.
