Triple boiler pot still, wow! NZ

Hardly a hobby still, spotted on Trademe if any kiwis are interested. One boiler missing though. That thing would have PUMPED with all 3 on the go. For interests sake only I post the link!

Re: Samohon's Pot Still plans build

Looking good. Im just getting prices now for the copper for the same pot still. Huge thanks to Samohon! This and a boka running off a keg boiler so I will have the choice of both stills.

Keep reading! Everytime you find a helpful topic, bookmark it (down the bottom of the page). Ive been here a month or so, and just now I feel I have a VERY basic level of knowledge to move forward with. Ive gone from wanting to buy a still, to thinking of making one, to finding plans, to finding how...

Re: Haven't built a still yet, but I'm studying the theory.

Welcome! Yes, Im still in reading mode, and I have to say, its just starting to come together in my mind (or so I think!). The best tip Ive had so far is to bookmark the threads you will need later on when building or distilling. Theres LOTS to learn. :D
Best of luck.

Hi Guys,
Yes, Im well aware that this will be a long process, and am just reading and learning at this stage. Re reading as you mentioned, and the home site too.

A week of reading here has helped more than you will know, and a few more weeks reading before I even look at buyi...
