I have a 220 outlet in my shop and am planning on possible adding a mini room to store and use my still in. I am a fan of tradition and history...

Re: First Still Recommendations
Thanks. Looking for a setup with little kick and flavor too. What I have read so far is maintaining temperature is critical and controllers can help with maintaining temperature. Some readings sound as if a column simplifies the process. I know there are lots of folks on here and a wealth of informa...

Re: A little spoon feeding *For New & Novice Distillers
I am a newbie. Thanks for this info. I plan on reading the "Material For Newbies" probably twice through. Then decide whether to purchase small pot still or attempt to build my own.
