Welcome bloke,
be keen to see how you go after a few years experience. You'll be chasing quality improvements or a few new washes?
Let us know how it goes, get stuck, ask!
enjoy

Cheers guys
I have an old reflux that i am going to de reflux and run my wash through.
I have a new 2 inch boka that hasn't been used yet that i will run middle cuts through.
I am using the tomato paste wash but am keen on trying the grain washes.
This is my plan anyway.
I have been making neutrals and flavouring them with chips. and the mrs drinks the neutral as vodka.
Any suggestions?

Howdy,
seriously I'd try a weetbix wash for a vodkas/neutrals. It pulls just a little flavour through, is softer in taste and well suits the drink imho. It's a dead simple easy entry step to take before going grain/sugarhead.

G'day Bob :handgestures-thumbupleft:
I reckon just strip your wash until you have enough low wines to do a spirit run and you'll be set, as opposed to just your middle cuts :handgestures-thumbupleft:
