Hi from someone

Post by someone »

Hi,
Have been dipping my toes into distilling for a few years. Made my first still from an Ikea stock pot and some copper tubing running to a worm condenser. Am currently trying to make a 50L still out of a 50L keg. Have only done sugar washes, looking to eventually get into all-grain washes and make some scotch, also get some molasses and make some rum. Have a fair interest in the fabrication side.
Cheers,
someone

50-liters will be a nice size.
Good luck with your build, and Welcome.

Sounds great, good to have you. There's a lot of good fabrication information here, and likewise if you are ready to move to all grain, there are a number of great recipes to start with in the tried and true section. Jimbo's all malt recipe will get you on the path towards a Scotch-like product.
