Bakery87 Posted October 1, 2019 Share Posted October 1, 2019 New to the forum. Former Colorado brewer turned Texas distiller. We're hoping to be operational by April 2020, producing bourbon, rye, and single malt. I'm looking forward to combing through the forum, asking questions, and doing some contributing as well.

captnKB Posted October 12, 2019 Share Posted October 12, 2019 @Bakery87 welcome to the forum. I know Austin well as I built Still Austin Whiskey Co. The city of Austin can be pretty difficult with regulations, If you need any help getting your distillery going drop me a line.

Bakery87 Posted October 14, 2019 Author Share Posted October 14, 2019 @captnKB thanks for the contact! We're already building out about three miles from your place. We're going with a 500 gallon Vendome hybrid. The city hasn't quite been a nightmare, but man are they tough on a lot of regulations. Honestly I think we were delayed almost two years fighting for what we could put in our place. @maddog I think we're all set with design with Overland. We're still making a couple of small changes to our internal equipment design, but we're building now and should be up and operational around April/May (if things go as planned). I'm moving to the area next month and would love to meet you guys and see your setups. FYI I'm from Fierce Whiskers Distillery Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MG Thermal Consulting Posted October 24, 2019 Share Posted October 24, 2019 Good Luck to you! If you need any advice on your cooling system-especially energy saving equipment- let me know. I consulted with Ed Belfour on his distillery in Dallas about his cooling system and a few others as well. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
