Hi All -
Have been lurking for a few months, but thought I would introduce myself properly and ask a request. Living in the heart of Sydney, and am an amateur wine-maker with a small production winery going both in the US and here in NSW (originally American). I'd like to get into distillation to complement the wine project. I make some of my own liqueurs, but with store-bought spirits.
About me: IT / tech background, day-job working for large multi-national IT company. Moved to Australia 2 years ago.
The Ask: as with a lot of people, I learn much better when I can complement the *reading* with the *doing*. Can I ask if anyone in the greater-Sydney area would be willing to take me on as a grunt / gopher / extra set of hands so I can go through a few runs? I'd rather jump in with a little practical knowledge, rather than mess up a few runs. I have transport, can come to you. If anyone would be willing to entertain, please PM me.
Thanks in advance, and look forward to continuing.
