Look into doing something around TTB reporting / inventory management, utilizing QR codes. Reporting is a beast, so freeing it from the laptop or paper would be a huge coup.

Some of the Colorado guys - can't remember who - developed some back-end database tools that might be good to link into.

I'm a software developer who also happens to be interested in starting a distillery. While I'm learning about distilling, writing a business plan, etc, I'd like to use my programming skills to bring something to the table. If anyone has any ideas, formulas, etc. that you would like to see in one or more android apps, let me know. I will post any finished apps on the Android market, and probably for $1.99 at most, if not for free.

Hello -

Two beginner questions: developing bigger-still expertise; subcontracting mash production:

1. expertise:

I'm working toward setting up a distillery, but I'm wondering about the learning curve for a commercial still.

Does practice on a 30L still translate at all? What are the best ways to learn - without practicing on 300L (or so) batches?

2. sub-contracting

Also, we're thinking of sub-contracting the mash production. Has anyone successfully done this? Any words of advice or warning?

Cheers,

ST
