Greetings from Ohio

Post by Wrestlingguy165 »

Hello HD Forums

I am a 21 year old home distiller from Ohio going on my second year of distilling. I have been using the forums for a while now and finally decided it was time to join the community. I have fell in love with the craft and am excited to see where it takes me. Happy Distilling everyone!

Welcome aboard Wrestler! I'm sure you will enjoy the journey. I started about the same age you are now and I'm still hooked on it nearly 20 years later. Read, read, read and it won't take long at all to be making some really good stuff.
Plain ole pot rig.

The distilling knowledge/expertise available 20 years ago was certainly a fair bit less than what is widely accessible today. Kinda difficult not to succeed with all the free problem-solving and advice just waiting to be taken advantage of.
