Hello from Sweden

Post by slatten »

A small greeting from Sweden.
I am relatively new to the hobby, but finished with a continuous
machine that has two columns. It fed about 5l per hour and I succeed
To get neutral spirits.

Sorry boys, I forgot to tell you about myself. I'm in the golden years.
Have had a break for 30 years to produce moonshine. But taking up the hobby again,
after having spent several nights at various forums. Started being interested in continuous fermentation,
so I built a fermentation reactor which I fed with only sugar solution and getting mash out at the other end (12%).
And so the step to continuous ethanol production was not to far.
I live in the southern part of Sweden and has a small farm with horses as hobby.
Trying to grow my own herbs and vegetables.
The last six years running my own business in construction

Yes kiwi.
, I have written a bit on other forums, trying to get as much credit as I can. :lol:
But I think it's fun to share knowledge and I have spent a lot of energy into this project,
now it is only all the electronics to be fixed so the machine is fully automatic.
And I just wanted to show how easy it is to produce neutral spirits continuously.
The difficult part was to change the thinking about cooking from batch to continuous mode, and understand
how the machine behaves, but now I have pretty good control and can begin to automate more and more.
