Re: Mini still design Good or Bad??
If you want to make scotch/ malt whiskey a simple pot still would be your best bet, and lucky for you it's considerably easier then making a LM still,( that's the one you picked out). So my short answer is no, I would not build that still if you want to make whiskey.
