Hi everyone. I’m happy to have found this forum. I am new to this and hope one day to build a still to make Gin and Ouzo.
All help and advice is welcomed. For now I will soak up as much info as I can.

Regards Phill

Welcome heaps good info here :handgestures-thumbupleft: get your head around the guide to cuts. After safety is the most important part of this hobby in my opinion.

Welcome aboard :greetings-waveyellow:

You will need both a reflux and a pot to make gin and ouzo or a bubbler. A reflux to make the neutral and a pot to get the flavours in.

Good luck :handgestures-thumbupleft:
