Your pot still will make a lovely drop of whatever it is you are chasing.
Let us know what you want to make , first, and we can point you to some recipes. Pot stills are fantastic for doing brown spirits as they keep a lot of the flavour in the spirit. They are also relatively easy to use. There is only 1 thing to control and that is output speed via a voltage regulator.
If you do not have one of these life is going to be so much harder mate so the $50:00 outlay is well worth it.
I started with a pot still and still use it regularly.
Read the newbie section a few times and once you have run the still once or twice things will start to make even more sense.
Thanks for the info, it seems the voltage reg will be my next purchase. (is there a preferred brand?)
What I want to make is controlled by the availability of product, ATM it is molasses freebie from a tame mill worker or bananas, cheap as chips around Innisfail.
The main concern I have is what I cannot ferment and distill, does oxalic acid become a problem and things like that.
thanks
