Old beer brewer, new distiller
Many, many local award winning beer batches brewed. Now it's time to learn the "hard" stuff. Home state made famous by cows and beer. Looking forward to picking some pickled brains here!

Welcome to HD, not sure how pickled we are but we do enjoy each other's company.

Re: Old beer brewer, new distiller
Welcome! You'll find this happy very different then making beer (I'm was a beer brewer first back in the day). Some things that are a challenge in brewing aren't a concern due to distilling and no concern for color/cloudiness. It's a fun hobby indeed.

Re: Old beer brewer, new distiller
If you end up pickled you should sanitize and sterilize your fermenter and try again...

"Award winning" might not mean a lot... How do we know he wasn't the only entrant in the competition?ShineonCrazyDiamond wrote:I here by offer one spoon fed answer for every beer recipe you share in our beer section. Or in a pm to me.
