This is pretty well the right place, cruz, and welcome.

Interesting recipe you have there. We wouldn't really go that way about it - although who knows? If you go to the search function (third button in either way above) you will find 558 posts (559 now) relating to peach brandy, including the use of the flesh of the peaches. Also, can I recommend that you visit the Reading Lounge for a bit of useful information relating to this addictive craft.
Simple potstiller. Slow, single run.
(50 litre, propane heated pot still. Coil in bucket condenser - No thermometer, No carbon)
The Reading Lounge AND the Rules We Live By should be compulsory reading

Cumudgeon and loving it.

not real brandy more of a liqueur.
we used to proses fruit . for canning /freezing.then used the skins for jelly etc.
I thank I would omit the pits.

dipping the fruit into boiling hot/ice water will loosen the skins so they peel off easily.
