Hi all,
I've been along term stalker, shhh I'm not really here :P.
I started my home distilling life like most I guess with home brew beer and always wondered about the spirit side of life.
After a long hiatus i bought a T500 and all the associated bits n bods and started delving into the world of Distillation. It was with the aid of sites such as the Aussie Distillers chat that i threw away the T500 manual and the way of the Turbo products (yeah i know don't go there!! ) started to get the most I could from my old T500 and started to get some quite nice flavoured bourbon neutral drinks (as you may gather from here on in I love my bourbon).
As i mentioned id been lurking and not a active member always trying to get the most from what I had purchased (i am actually quite shy and not wanting to impose though get a drink or two and well., here is my post tonight.. ) hence I would sit back back read a lot from both here and other forums but not be an active participant. I was always trying to learn how I could get a nice flavoured bourbon or for that matter any whisky and would read about the world of bubble plate stills and the differences from them (and pot stills ) to the reflux column i had purchased. Hence i begun the search for the next great expense and also or perhaps even a greater, reason for the Mrs to accept the said "great expense"....
With all that said and after much deliberation (and perhaps some extra Xmas presents for the Mrs) im proud to say that I'll soon, Covid border gods willing, be the owner of a Visualizer Mk2 plate still and looking forward to the wonderful world to come :P
I'd like to say that i made my choice with the positive feedback from this site along with my conversation with Andrew from 5 Star who was so helpful and willing to share his time. I am feeling very excited about this and looking forward to exploring some of the recopies that are on this site.
I would like to up front (well at the end, see how i get ...) to say thank you to all the contributors to this forum, I hope you know how your contributions help all the distilling community not just those that may post on here but all that read it.
My sincere thank you all!!
That is about the end of my emotional hello that i thought i would put up and now. (now you see the trouble i get my self into)
I will now go back to my usually quiet stalking. lol
Cheers
Terzza
