Hello

Post by Jmac87 »

New to distilling just recieved my first distiller wanted copper but due to funds and learning the wife talked me into the vevor 30L unit. It seems built well cleaned it ran a steam run then a vinegar run then another steam run and to run a sac run i just bought a gallon of vodka proofed it down to 20 and ran it as waste. Checked proof on sac run and was around 140 out the condenser. Got my first sugar wash almost done fermenting.

Reading everything you can that pops up on the forum will give you the answers to questions you didn't know you had and also to some of the questions that you did have.
What sugar wash are you making ?
