Re: What's your stills name?
I have a coupla things I call my still. Her primary name is Pot-Tricia, but occasionally I call her Maw Maw, cause she can be slow, fickle, and cumbersome...

Lyssa, after my ex wife, and the greek Goddess of Madness and Chaos.
Pretty sure they're the same person.

"Bonzo", it is an integral part of my "Hammer of the Gods" brewery/distillery. It stays in the back ground but what comes out will knock you off your feet.

Re: What's your stills name?
I call mine Goat.
17 years ago when my wife and I first started courting, I would sneak away for 12 to 14 hours from time to time to run my mash. She would always ask "where are you going, or where have you been". My reply was always "i had to go see a man about a goat". To keep from lying to her I actually used heat resistant paint and wrote "Goat" on the side of the boiler.

Fridged bitch. Just because she ain't put out the first drop of what I'm after. Once she starts putting out the name may change
My Grandpa used to say. Don't argue with an idiot, because he will just drag you down to his level then beat you with experience.
He also used to say. I didn't say it was your fault. I just said that I was blaming you.

Re: What's your stills name?
My old pot still USED to be called 'Ethol' but now she's just 'Patches' or "Patch" when I'm talking with the family, as they all have had turns helping dad stay awake watching the drip or mixing a batch of "corn glue" as they call it.
When the check out ladies at both Sam's Club and Wall Mart ask "What church are you making fudge for this week?"
Re: What's your stills name?
I am now calling my new still LISA. Labor Intensive Still Art. Just for the shear amount of man hours gone into this thing.

Re: What's your stills name?
I call mine " The twins" though not identical, they sure put out a hell of a good time. 15.5 times two puts me over the limit for this site, but who doesn't love twins?!!!
There is no such thing as a stupid question....... Unless you didn't research it first.
