Herzlichen glückwunsch zum Weihnachtsnacht!

Post by lurklaban »

Hi all!
New here (hence the presentation post). Have been practicing this great hobby off and on for some time now - actually since we were 17 and made mash in unused student lockers. Those were the days, oh yes... Since then a few things have changed (among others we can no longer access the lockers siince we no longer have access to the school, so for the past 30 years we have had to resolve to other solutions. Actually they torn down the whole building a few years ago so we've completely out of options there. More over, my friend started to work as a judge and according to his wife it was inapropriate for him to continue that project in any form, so I had to leave him down the road, unfortunately. But I've found me a new friend at last, and his name is not codeine and not Darth Vader but I cant say anything more...

Ok, enought of that babble. A few years ago my interest in this rice again and in contrast to 30 years ago, the internet was easily accessed and blooming with information - some good, some not so good... and since then the still has been modified a few times. Currently we run a 75 l (loaded with 50 l mash) stainless steel boiler with 84mm SS CM column packed to around 90 cm with pall rings, copper reflux coil and copper liebig product condenser and running for neutrals. Would be interesting to experiment and perhaps try to make some rum in the future, but for now its neutrals and with your help and the information gathered here I'm hoping to maybe be able to make some improvements. (Will hopefully soon post my original post and question that was brutaly rejected because I hadn't made this post - sorry for that, my fault)

Well, if you've made it all the way down here I'm more than impressed and my apologies for the moss now growing in your hair... :-/

Oh,and sorry for the lousy english- I'm not from an native english speaking country.

Regards from Sweden
