A total noob's start from zero to a bottle of brandy

Post by bucket »

Howdy all. I've been lurking on the forum for a while and am finally jumping in with both feet. I thought it might be fun to keep a thread updating on progress from where I'm at now (starting at zero) through a full brandy.

I'm getting started with the following equipment, which will come in later this week:

DigiBoil 35L with basic Distillation Lid
AlcoEngine Pot Still
AlcoEngine Reflux Still

Can't wait to get started! I'm wanting to start with an apple brandy to make use of a large grocery sack of apples I was given from a friend's orchard. I'm still working on finding the right 6 gallon recipe, but this is a fun start and something to anchor on. For now I'm still hunting down what the rest of the recipe looks like, so if you've got any recommendations please do tell!
