Hello

[Jimthebrewer]

Hi all

I’ve been browsing for a while and today purchased my first still (kegland pot still) so thought I better join.

I actually work in the industry, as you can guess by the name I was a brewer. I now work for a global company who manufactures active dried yeast. My background is engineering and I was a brewer for 10 years. For me distilling has always been a dark art but since I now work with distillers and my growing love of whisky means I’m now fully wanting to understand spirit manufacturing.

I think the whisky boom we are seeing is incredible, it reminds me very much of the early days of craft brewing, so much innovation.

I’m happy to learn and if I can answer any questions on yeast and nutrition I’m happy to share my knowledge. Looking forward to getting to know everyone and absorbing your experiences and insights.

Cheers

Jim
