  1. I'm reading the forums while our iStill 2000 runs out corn whiskey destined for Bourbon. We have been doing mash, ferment, and distillation directly in the iStill for the past two months. Hi Odin, Happy New Year!
  2. Howdy! I've got some family up in Cleveland we go up to see occasionally. I've drank a bit of the Cleveland Whiskey, but never visited. Do y'all do tours and such of the production facility ? We have a small distillery in WV if you'r ever down this way.
  3. Howdy, what part of Maryland you in? We are in WV about an hr south of Deep Creek/Oakland MD.
  4. We appled for formula and got "Spirits distilled from grain and distilled with hops". Tried to shorten it to "Spirits distilled from grain and hops" on our label but got sent back and put the full deal on there.

  6. So what happened, did they extend the tax break or is it back to $13.50?

  9. Hi, I am having trouble uploading the pics here if you want to post or PM your email address I can email them to you. Thanks
  10. Also have 6" to 2" reducer for top of the column with extra fnpt fitting welded on so you can have a temp sensor and analog thermometer. $100 The 4 plate sections plus dephleg plus reducer is a nice setup for running 140-150 proof spirits.

  13. The distillery building is heated to constant 76f, and volume of the mash plus the biological heat from the yeast I haven't had any issues with temp - it will start at whatever temp I pitch the yeast and end up at 76f or room temp when ferment is finished. You could wrap a heat mat and some insulation around it if building is colder.
  14. . Two Tall is the name, it is located in Sun Prairie just outside Madison. I believe the are open Saturdays from 1:00-5:00. https://twotalldistilling.com/
  15. I just got back from the iStill training in Wisconsin and it far exceeded my expectations. I expected the class to mostly be about how to use the iStill machine but it was really the best class I have taken on theory of distillation, mashing, aging and fermentation. We ran both the iStill 500 and the new minis and made some whiskey, gin and bitters during the class, so it had a good hands on component as well. We have ordered a iStill 2000 to upgrade our distillery with and will be using it for start to finish process of grain mashing, fermentation and distillation. It seems you really can't beat it for ease of use, versatility and precise control over your process and flavors from start to finish. We ordered with indirect heaters and cooling radiator for temp control during mashing and fermentation. Compared to the price of upgrading all our equipment to 2000 liter, iStill seems like the best solution as well as a big time saver in not having to transfer the mash and clean multiple vessels, pumps and hoses ec... I will update with our experiences once we have our 2000 installed and operating.
