Stopping in to say hello

Postby jonsey » Sat Mar 21, 2020 3:06 am

Hi all

I've been doing alot of reading, and am just about to bite the bullet and get my first still. The question is which one :). I was thinking of starting off with the 50L FSD boiler and 2" Boka....

I was just planning on doing neutrals for awhile as I will have my training wheels on. Eventually, I'd like to do a nice gin and a whisky.

Thanks for reading back to researching for me and watching moonshiners. Any help would be muchly appreciated.
