Hi,

I'm Bryce from Auckland, New Zealand.
Been a long time reader but only just signed up.

Over 10 years ago I purchased a Still spirits 25L turbo reflux still with high hopes but never managed to get anything decent out of it so it's sat idle for the best past of 10 years. Being a lot more educated now (a lot of HD foum reading) I now know I'm very unlikely to ever get to what I want with it as is but that's a topic for another post.

I enjoy traditional meat curing, making everything from fresh sausages through to air dried black forrest ham and 3 year aged prosciutto. I can make better quality and tasting small goods for a fraction of the cost of store bought equivalents and now want to rekindle the distilling hobby and see if I can't do the same with spirits.

I'm very much a DIY person and love to tinker around making stuff rather than buying it if I can easily get hold of the materials/ingredients required.

Looking forward to seeing where I can get to here.
