Hello from shetland Isles in Scotland

Post by Sstove560 »

I have been home brewing my own beers and lagers for around 4 years starting with kits then moved toward creating my own recipes. I have been drawn to distilling naturally and have got my first pot still with copper column and condenser.
I found this forum through Jessie at Still it.
And I currently have made my first batch of UJSSM in my fermenter at the moment and look forward to trying it out.

Thank you for having me. :D

Welcome to HD. Do the vinegar and sacrificial runs before you drink any thing.

Vinegar run is done and I ran a bottle of commercial whiskey I did not want through so may give it a try.

Welcome to the forum.

Don't try drinking the sacrificial whiskey run unless the shithouse is close to the house and has a barf bucket in it.
