Greetings From Nashville

[shanedwilson]

Greetings all.

I've been distilling for a number of years here in middle TN and have read many threads on this forum.

I finally pulled the trigger and signed up.

I currently have a 5 gallon pot still but am looking to upsize in the near future. I've never used a thumper and am hoping to source a new, larger rig with a thumper.

I really want to get better at distilling and hope that this community will help me get there.

Welcome.
If you drink and also share with family and loved ones, a 50 liter kettle is the go.
Using a thumper puts you into barrel strength one and done.

Whiskey is far more forgiving than rum.
Anymore and I'll have to charge you a consultation fee....

Welcome to HD! Lots of good info here - I'm Also in Nashville.

What kind of spirits have you been making and might be interested in making?

Cheers,
jonny

I'll be damned! A fellow Nashvillian!

I've tried my hand at shine, bourbon, agave shine, peach brandy.

I've consumed all that I've made and rarely share w/friends because it never feels even close to what one can buy. My brewing is good enough to share. My distilling, not so much.
