Hello from Kentucky

Post by Dano582 »

Hello all, my name is Dan and I am completely new to the art of distilling. I received a 5 gallon Vevor still with thumper for Christmas and have fallen completely in love with the process of making alcohol. I have been reading the forums for the last few weeks and have found there to be a lot for me to learn and hopefully in time have enough confidence and knowledge to help others to discover the craft. I look forward to interacting with the people on these forums and learning from those of you that have been distilling for a while.
