Hello Everyone

Post by ozzy_gunja »

Hello HD crew…
Wow, some very interesting reading…
Will sit in the corner and listen, if this is allowed?
Thanks for accepting me as I’m here to learn, not to argue.
This will be my 4th attempt at introducing myself 🤷🏻‍♂️
I’m not sure what else I’m allowed to say?… I’m under 50 but over 40… I have had a rough time lately…
Spent over 20 years building & repairing Semi-trailers… I’ve worked till my Dr said I had to stop… Trying to deal with the loss of my Career and the development of this Cancer…
So, I’m trying to distract myself from this, at the same time…
I thought maybe this is the perfect hobby for me, that maybe I can try at home, as I only leave my house to go to the Dr’s, Specialist, Chemist or Liquor Store…
Hoping this will help distract me from the inevitable…
Cheers 🥃

Welcome to the forum Ozzy_G

Mate you got a whole lot of bad shit going down and I get that …. but please Read our rules and know that selling and talk of gunja is not OK on this forum . If you OK with that then hang around . If not ,there is the door .

But I also get that a fella that built semi trailers for as long as you have has a lot to share . Respect that Sir .

Cheers everyone, sorry for such a delay in responding 💯…
Have been doing a whole bunch of research & slowly but surely built myself a personalised modular Still setup , that I can use for creating multiple types of spirit’s…
Thanks again for your replies, see you all in the Forums

Hello fellow Hobby & Master Distillers

Thanks for letting join the HomeDistiller Community
Being from SE Queensland Australia,I’m a “Rum Distiller” by heart, though I enjoy making just about all “Spirits”
Gotta give Beer a Shoutout Too 🍻, I love a good Larger & Pilsner
Been brewing since I was old enough to drink, 10 years later I bought a Still. I’m now 45 & my passion for this Hobby has only left me more eager to share @ learn alike...
Cheers 🥃

I’m blessed with an abundance of Molasses
Cane fields are all up the East Coast of Australia…
From Northern NSW to the Tip of Queensland…
Not forgetting about Bundaberg Sugar Refinery 💯🙏🏼
