Home Distiller

Just a quick hello - I have been lurking here for a few months, reading everything I can find (and that is not always an easy task it seems)

I debated long and hard about building first, but decided to just buy instead - at least for my first still.

I ordered a Brewhaus PSII last week and am eagerly awaiting it's arrival so I can get started with this new hobby. I am hoping to awaken some deep-seeded ancient knowledge that I might have given that I was born in Middle KY, just South of Bardstown, and grew up in Middle TN, just West of JD & George Dickel.... I am not sure it will work that way - so I will continue to read all the great info that is here on the site in the meantime

Genetic knowledge now that would be nice kinda. would not wanna see my own conception . Welcome to HD.

Welcome to HD! Have you read the "CM still improvement/operation" thread? It's The first thread located in "column distillation and design". Very good info. On your setup. I also run the same rig. Have fun!

I read through that thread a few times, and was happy for all the info BEFORE I ordered. Based on the thread I had Rick at Brewhaus make a few additions/changes. I had a 1" NPT fitting added to the boiler so I can easily add a heater element, and I had the condenser extended from the standard length to 24". I plan to run it in more of a pot still mode initially, I think, since my interests lie more toward whisky & rum... but I am still reading and learning more every day I wait for it's arrival
