Just to add, I've had a couple of pm's re people getting a little dissapointed with these small hobby stills.I'd just like to add that I'm closer to 50 that I like to admit, I won't drink cheap top shelf like normal jim beam or JD, (but I don't mind makers and small batch), and ive recently done a few whiskey tours. A couple of nights ago I visited a person who has the blue essencia reflux express I think they are called - and he had the best home brew whiskey I've ever ever tasted, bar nothing. He was mixing, fermenting, stilling as agriculturally as you could be. Forget cuts and abv, he just does his thing. This product was simply...fucking amazing. He was even using turbo yeasts. I started a thread about it and copped a little, but I don't really mind - I know what the product was -(which is subjective anyway) but to all those with the little HBS units - a bloody good product can be done, and from what I witnessed - without a lot of concentrated effort, just a decent amount of experience.
