Hi from Tennessee

Post by rdjohnson »

I’m near Nashville and have been distilling for 10 years or so. I started brewing beer and continue to do so but added distilling as another hobby after about 1year. I have an 8 gallon milk can still with several columns for both pot still and reflux. I really enjoy the hobby. I’m looking forward to reading the various posts here.

You can never have too many hobbies. But you can have too little time.

Welcome to the forum rd. With 10 years distilling already there will be tip and recipes you will pick up but you may also have knowledge to share. It works both ways here.
Cheers
