Lads,

Apologies I haven't read the 22 pages..

Key to this being Liquid Amylase...which I can't get here in Australia, has anyone had success with power form ?

Cheers again...Got me itching at the bit to get a few runs sorted so I can have a crack...To be continued....

Cheers Gents, appreciated the replies. As above I will give it a smell & taste test when I get home and more importantly give the jars and cuts method I've read about a real go on my next batch, I'm enjoying the process but am really skipping the fun bit. rull_bull - the first 1kg was from my or...

I've read that....going through all that work and relying on my taste when I don't know what I'm doing at this stage is a bit how ya going to me, could just go down the shop and buy some cheap shit instead. Using an experienced distillers cuts the first few times round was the thought! Yes I have be...

Gents, Novice here :thumbup: First mistake was doing a run with a limited time frame... Second mistake....1 whiskey under my belt...(broke the cardinal rule :thumbdown: ) So I'm doing a spirit run using 20lt / 5 gallons of low wines (UJSSM) with my 50lt Pot Still. This I have done once before follow...

Hi Gents, Cheers for the reply's.....I'm away with work atm so am still to run this up... Good call with the legs...can trim these if required, and yes a brace between each is easy enough...Safety First!

Cheers for the reply Gents, I was checking in and seeing no reply so moved on....reading my question again I wasn't sure what sort of reply it would get, especially with regards to spending my weekends doing it.. :roll: Appreciate the info and different views on it...With the equipment I have I'll b...

Cheers Gents, yes the welding has helped as I have the gear... although the eyes and patience isn't what it use to be. Its like stilling..a slow process that takes learning and preparation. Will see how I go with the first stripping run regarding the water as I don't have a bigger tub as this stage....

First timer questions...phuk here goes.. Search and found this thread after reading UJSSM Newbie thread by Stogiefarts.....which I thought was great, haven't read full Monty edition yet but may one day. Yes I should search this first one as well....using the backset is to help the PH or are we gaini...

Cheers Bill, Haven't decided on exact location yet but most likely back shed...Plenty of bits in there to sort it, not sure on angle yet. Going to use a 30l fermentation tub with a small fish pump...plenty of block ice in the front fishing freezer so should be all good there. I've done some partial ...

Well its been a slow process...copper welding being the hard part for me, but have got there in the end. Still some cleaning of the welds etc before I start with a good internal scrub...then citric wash and vinegar run. Been reading from the start which is interesting but slow going at the same time...

Cheers Gents....will add Ferrules as mentioned along with Thermometer

G Day Gents, First build progress...hopefully strip some wire this week to finish the copper to copper welds. Was going to use gas but am now considering the outlay for a heating element. Unsure on temp gauge type or were to locate...being a novice i'd like to include one. Not sure what the thoughts...

Cheers...Will do.
