Hi from country NSW

Postby Bearded Distiller » Sat Sep 25, 2021 6:40 pm

Hey everyone,

So I just picked up a 4" 4 plate FSD Neutraliser from one of the members on here (Ned) I've been talking to Andrew and still deciding on what size boiler to get 50l or 100l.

Pretty big learning curve as I've come from a T500 and Alembic pot sill. I'm interested in alot of different things mainly rum, gin and neutral.

Looking forward to talking with everyone on here and trying to figure out how to run this still properly.

Cheers guys

Good stuff mate... and welcome! :greetings-waveyellow:
If you've got the coin id go the 100ltr, dont have to always run it full.
The extra head room would be good for rum washes.

Silly question bearded but does your shed have 3 phase power. I have the 50 litre boiler and my power is on the limit with that. It would be terrible to get the 100 litre but not have the juice to run it

Excellent, I had to ask lol

I think Ned was on the boarder and I am only about an hour south of that so if your are just the other side of the drain we might be able to catch up. Otherwise there is bound to be a member close to you.

Lots of experiments, and lots of arrharr moments to follow, you are going to love it mate. And that is before you start tasting the output :laughing-rolling:

Lol , it’s good to be cryptic but I reckon I have a good idea where you are but that puts you 3 hours and a boarder crossing from me one way lol.

Ask lots of questions and remember we have all been there, some of us still are some days lol. Oh and be prepared for just when you think you have it Sussed something will happen to challenge you lol
