Hello Home Distillers!
Just wanted to introduce myself to the group and put a big shout out to the creators and contributors to this forum and the collection of fantastic information that is located here. Started out by reading a few books, but this website has made distilling possible instead of just a pipe dream. Have been doing this for a little while now, but would still consider myself a novice. Built a stove pot setup with a 6 gallon stainless steel pot, lid fitted with a 2" copper column that includes a reflux coil at the top and collection baffles per Bokabob's sketches. Added a Leibig condenser on the outlet pipe to get some more cooling and allow it to run whisky and other more flavorful spirits. Everything is (now) 100% copper - story for a different day...
Anyway, thanks so much for the wealth of information and for the support going forward. Looking forward to learning more and making some good booze for the holidays!

Congrats JD.
Most folks enjoy a little copper porn when someone does a new build. [hint-hint]
