Hello, I'm Fritz the Cat

Postby Fritz The Cat » Mon Apr 09, 2012 7:45 pm

I'm a Noobe just getting into the hobby. This weekend I distilled my very first bucket of mash in my tabletop water distiller. I learned a lot from this first attempt, including that this distiller isn't really suitable for spirits. I've ordered the correct equipment from Brewhasus and hopefully my next batch will be a considerable improvement. I'm still struggling with the lingo (is there a glossary somewhere here?) and understanding the basics. But I catch on fast. My second batch, a sweefeed batch, is already bubbling. I've spent hours here and other sites picking up tips and hopefully I'll be able to incorporate them in my future endeavors.

Thanks everyone for being here.

Welcome to HD Fritz, There is a glossery somewhere, I can't think of where to tell you right now, someone will have it for you. Good Luck and let us know how your sweet feed goes. OMD
