Many like to post about a first successful ferment (or first all grain mash), or first still built/bought or first good run of the still. Tell us about all of these great times here.

You can relay on your sense but some practice is required. For the first pot stil run alcometer is reccomended. At least collect product to several small yars. Next mix only tolerably smell and taste.
