Books For Beginners

Post by Colorado_Kid »

I have only a little experience with distilling and that experience was me just helping someone. Are there any good books out there that would be of help for someone just starting out distilling whiskey?

Ya know something CK, if you want to curl up with a good book that's just fine but if you want rock solid information this place is darn hard to beat.Read, read & read some more. The downside to all the reading is that at times some of it can seem to be contradictory which is frustrating to say the least.My advice to you is to get up and running ASAP to stave off the dreaded information overload.Come back with some informed questions and the folks here will have you up and running in no time at all. Sometimes ya just gotta do it for things to come together.

BTW, I have lotsa freakin' books so trust me on this, please.
