Rain Dance Maggie or just Maggie
Shes named after the new Red Hot Chili Peppers song:
Hey now
We've got to make it rain somehow
She told me to
And showed me what to do
How Maggie makes it in her cloud

Re: What's your stills name?
My first still is a 3 gal pot still I named it Roscoe because both my grandfather's names are Roscoe and the both made shine back in the day.
My second still is a 10 gal pot still its name is Rebel.

Re: What's your stills name?
The one I am now using, is name shinny, the one I am working on was just named " You son-of-a-bitch " last night but I think that name will change.

Never ceases to amaze me the shit you guys come up with to call a piece of copper.
But it still amuses me.

Re: What's your stills name?
I've become more refined since then and don't call it anything. I did pick up a "Limited Edition" nameplate at the Napa and thought of sticking it on there.
My wife probably has some choice names for it, especially when I'm out pulling back to back all nighters with it.
I just give her some Kirschwasser and that seems to do the trick.

In the interest of being discrete, I refer to mine as the "Mark II" and my future upgrade plans as the "Mark III"

Gotta go with Pauncho, cause I wrap him up in insulation and a mexican blanket I bought years ago, and slap a floppy cowboy hat over the top of the column....he's hunkering down in his corner, working harder without trying that most folks do when they are balls to the walls....

Re: What's your stills name?
+1 Bills are named Candy..
I still haven't made a name up. But I'm leaning towards Cleetus or Fleece.. Maybe Birtha
Now that I think about it.. what if I name it Cornelius.. That's kind of uppity
