Chef Posted April 3, 2020 Share Posted April 3, 2020 Hey guys I was wondering if anyone has any experience with this. Obviously I’m not looking for anyone to incriminate themselves but I may know someone who is in the market for a beginner set up and was curious if anyone has any input He is thinking about something like this https://moonshinestills.com/products/10-gallon-copper-moonshine-still Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So I bailed: I’m following this for sure but I really want to see the DIY shiners (private production/consumption is not illegal) no different than home brewers or stomping your own grapes or making dandelion wine.

Jeremy K Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 I may or may not know someone who may or may not make shine . He may or may not use an electric one because you just set it and forget it . He may or may not have each operation on a timer so that each step is quick and easy. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think that would get you a couple quarts of 100 proof . I believe he may or may not mix it with distilled water til the proof is between 80 and 90 . Then it may or may not get flavor added so that it may or may not be served over ice or shared over a buck harvest. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Bundy Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Sorry I’m no help here. I can’t get daisy duke out of my head. I’m thinking of cutting one of mrs bundys old pants down real short and making her wear it. Lucky for me I know where the nearest hospital is. im also not thinking about booze this morning. I cracked open a bottle of my mead last night. It’s so good, until the morning. Chef where is your “friend” located? My still is just hanging out idle. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Bundy Posted April 4, 2020 Share Posted April 4, 2020 Talk about explosive shit... this is my still. My grandfather gave it to me somewhere around 1990. I never did get it going. But with lots of idle time now I half thought about it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
