Hi from Kalgoorlie

Postby Jedstar » Mon Feb 08, 2021 11:01 pm

Hi guys,

I have been a voyeur on here for sometime, trying to get a feel for the forum, what an amazing source of information and experience, I am a noob having only been involved for a year or so. Thanks to this forum I can see now I am going to be investing in some serious equipment upgrades. I see now I have trodden down the very well worn path of the HBS and the infamous T500 and everything Turbo. I plan to be going through MacStill at 5 Star of course and looking forward to making some next level hooch, I like making and drinking rum & some whiskeys now and then for a change. Again it is fantastic to have so much information and experience on hand, every single question I have had so far I've found the answer in previous threads and consequently haven't posted because I felt there was nothing to add. Anyway cheers one and all. :text-thankyoublue:

thanks guys, yes I've pulled the trigger and am looking forward to the arrival of the new toy. I just last night tried some spiced rum I made using some of techniques I've picked up from this forum (the thread on wooding your spirits) and boy of boy my liquor is now at another level. Absolutely wrapped. No more turbo, and much more craft. Cheers guys

Wellsy you read the play perfectly, still hasn't even arrived and was down at Bunnings getting a few more fermenters. Shed sounds like a symphony with all the bubbling going on. :-D

Lol
I am only reading the play because I am just ahead of you :laughing-rolling:

Next issue will be how to store the low wines and how to age the finished product

I have a 50 litre boiler so the 60 litre fermenters work for me mate. I have also used the 220 litre barrels for my vodka ferments. But as it is starting cooling down that will be less of an option.
