:obscene-drinkingdrunk: G'day all
Just bought a t500 a week ago, put in the turbo wash that came with the kit AND then found this site. Will see how it goes,but definitely will be using tpw from now on.This site is awesome,the tips and tricks I have leant over the last week would've taken me years to find out by myself....Looking forwards to drinking decent bourbon that's not taxed to the shithouse.

Welcome buddy. If you want brown spirits and your a handy type person whip up a 2"pot. The are easy to make and make a good spirit..will be big improvement over an essence bourbon :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Even though the T500 gets a bad rap, it is capable of making a decent vodka, it's just easily outgrown.

Already have a few ideas to convert the t500 into a basic pot still just for stripping runs
