Been reading for awhile

Post by Copperman »

Hi All. I guess I'm supposed to introduce myself first. :D

I have been wanting to build a still for quite sometime and have finally got around to it. Thanks to some great books and information here I'm hoping to make some great stuff.

A little history on me. Until the economy turned, I was a metal sculptor and architectural artist. So my studio is capable of making just about anything in metal. In 2008, I built and founded a Micro Brewery with a good friend and we have been brewing beer like crazy. I questioned my sanity of starting up a brewery in a down economy but folks are clearly still drinkin. 8)

My pipe dream here is to be operating a small still for local distribution in the next few short years. Mostly Vodka based beverages.

So....I will post some pics of my still in the near future. I have lot's of sanitary brewery components at my disposal and I tend to over do things a bit so don't laugh too much. HA!

Regards...

Welcome to the forum, sounds like you bring some talents with you so when you get to building we would love to see pictures of your work. I bet you could really design a fancy parrot :ebiggrin:
