Hey Thanks Boys
. Yeah I built the whole shebang with 2 water tanks and a copper boiler just like me dear old nan boiled her bloomers in.
It looks like shitte on the outside but its clean as an operating rooms inside.
So far I'm doing 5 gal single runs of sugar shine.
I have soaked some in Bourbon chunks but I'm more of a Brandy drinker.
So I will try to run some grapes through . Maybe Grappa? I live on a farm (mid north coast NSW )so usually I have a lotta pomegranates
This year its been no rain for yonks'. so its a lean year ...
Its all new to me.
My Yank mate gave me a lotta tips but was not happy with refabricating dented old tanks.
Oh well. Thems the breaks.
he did say . keep it simple stupid! KISS
Yes 130 proof. The best yet has been 138. proof ,
I have some mates that have stainless stills with cooling towers and so on. .All very complicated.
Personally I find the cooper produces a smoother product . I guess those rednecks back in Kentucky knew what they were doing and they used copper...
Anyway. This is what those tanks looked like before I bastardized the buggers.
Anyone live near Macksville NSW?
Hi-Ho Silver....
Tony
