    I've contacted four suppliers about a metal t-top closure for our vodka. Don't care for plastic or painted wood. Ideally looking for silver/stainless steel closure. Also need to purchase at smaller quantities if possible and embossing would be nice if possible. Any suggestions?

    Paul, I did not mean anything disrespectful regarding response time. You have always been extremely helpful in everything you have posted. You have a great operation there! We really value your input and suggestions. Thank you Bluestar for your input!

    Thanks Paul. Always a pleasure. I I sent you an email the other day about pricing for your 8/13/26 gallon SS holding containers. Can you respond to that?

    I was trying to be very narrow with my question because it had to do with time/output/operation time. But since you want to expand the purpose, we want to eventually get into making whiskey by using the bypass valves. Additionally, future plans are to do custom vodkas where we will make our own three lines. You are right that from the start, we don't need much but we're looking beyond the next 12 months. Others, I would certainly value feedback on run times based on energy, still and column specs provided. William ReDfined

    Using four heating elements that are 5 kW each, meaning there is 20kW output. I am using GNS.
  12. william-bailey
    We're close to pulling the trigger on our first equipment. We will be using GNS and run it through a 300L still and into a six inch bubble plate column. For 300L, we know that a 4 inch column would be way too small. We hope that 6 inch bubble plate would suffice but would love your expert opinion. Thanks friends!

    Any other reputable filter housing companies? I didn't see where Utah Diesel sells the housing. Thanks!
  14. william-bailey
    For people who are not building their own filter housing, where are you buying it from?

    Anyone have a good source for holding tanks that are 10, 15, 20 gallons? Looking for ones with NPTfitting to transfer (we focus on infused fruits so small batch infusions is what we're doing).

    What is everyone using to filter their spirits for vodka? Anyone using something like this? https://www.dudadiesel.com/choose_item.php?id=cfv32 Any alternatives or opinions are encouraged. We would like to know what others are doing so that we can learn from the best!

    As we are working with a manufacturer to build our still, we have a question. what is the difference between bubble plates and procaps? Is one preferred over another? Are there disadvantages of procaps? FYI-We are making mainly vodka with this new setup.
  18. william-bailey
    For those of you making vodka, what filtering steps are you taking? Are you using a filter like this? https://www.dudadiesel.com/choose_item.php?id=cfv32 Using coconut carbon? Charcoal? Are you letting the carbon sit in the spirit for a lengthy time or are you just running it through a filter like this? Finally, are you proofing to get the ABV down before filtering or are you filtering at a high proof? Learning a lot from everyone as we plan our business. Thank you for everything friends!

    We need to infuse early in the process to create the smoothest liquor. We're using real fruit and we do strain most of the fruit out but a little pulp still remains. We've tried to filter the infusion but issue is that it strips most of the flavor we desire.
  20. william-bailey
    As we continue to develop our vodka product, we will infuse vodka before the bottling process. Does anyone have a recommendation on a small filling machine (750ml) that will allow small pulp pieces to pass through (and not clog) the filling machine? We don't want to filter out all of the pulp as the finished product takes on an even smoother flavor. We're talking orange juice pulp, but chunks. Thanks friends for any suggestions! Have a great week!

    Would this be appropriate for vodkas?
  22. william-bailey
    What size column adapts to this boiler? 6 inch?
  23. william-bailey
    Great news. Can't wait to meet you at the distilling class in May!
  24. william-bailey
    If you are a retailing distiller, are you selling mixers in your store? If so, are you making your own or are you outsourcing it to a company who produces it for you (and you private label them)? Originally, we were thinking of making our own but we can't do it all. So we're looking to have someone do it for us. Any ideas or suggestions?

    Any left? How many?
