Thanks! First run is a wbab. But lemon vodka, rum and bourbon is on the wish list.
Been making beer awhile and enjoying it so time to try spirits

Leak free! Used a mirror with doubleuj, during the run. All good.
I’ve got 6.5 million questions, my brain hurts. Can’t wait to be confident

Don't panic mate, keep it simple to start with. Get a few runs under your belt then you can start fiddling and see what variables can do to a run. Biggest tip I can give you is to be reasonably hard with your cuts. Quality over quantity :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Have fun!

Thanks to you and Mac she’s leak free :handgestures-thumbupleft:
Gave the Bloke years of knowledge in one afternoon, reckon I could see your brain turning to mush by the end Sampson :teasing-tease: or was that just the amount of booze we drank? :laughing-rolling:
Cheers for a great weekend to you and mrs Sampson :handgestures-thumbupleft:
