Longtime lurker getting my act together

Postby charleyfarley » Sat Jul 27, 2013 12:29 pm

G'day everyone,
I have been interested in distilling for a while now, but a lack of equipment and information makes things a bit academic for me at the moment. Like a lot o f others here, youtube is my friend when it comes to learning new things about this game, but having this resource and all the experience of the members is something well worth taking advantage of. With a little bit of time and some experimentation, I hope to have some useful stuff to contribute too.
Thanks,
Charleyfarley

Welcome mate. Like Sam said, careful of YouTube. I found everything I needed to know in here and the homedistiller web site.

Welcome mate & +1 on Sam's comment. Ask here first, YouTube ain't always as diligent as folks here.

Many stilling runs on YouTube are quantity over quality. We're all about quality here.
