I've been reading on here for about a month so thought it was time to register instead of roaming like a ghost.
This forum is the first I've ever joined, and it seems highly thorough with explanations and a variety of expertise, so I'll make a vow to not waste anyone's time here. I have no experience in distilling, but I've used those little mr. beer kits before if that tells you anything.
I am a field project technician for the midwest for a large architectural and theatrical lighting company. It's definitely gotten me used to frustrations and taught me more patience than I knew I had. Before that I worked for Universal Studios in Orlando as the lead ride and show control/animation lighting tech, and before that I was in the Navy as a Hospital Corpsman.
I haven't yet decided on anything, but I would like to attempt to build a reflux still sometime in the next 4 to 6 months(maybe longer). The Edinburgh Gin Distillery was an inspiring story for me a few years back on a nice 10 day holiday to the UK, and I'm also just a fan of learning - so I'm hoping a more complex process at the beginning of the journey will make the actual distillation process more enjoyable.
