Pour Decisions

I had no issues. Send an email to admin@distilling.com, they are very responsive

Thanks @Thatch Does this mean when I submit my layout I would only attach like the second image here and not even include the non DSP area? Yes, very crude, but thats my skill!

Finalizing some of the plans for my small distillery. After reading much information, I know that I should not include my tasting room and retail space as part of the DSP. Those areas will be separated from the DSP via floor to ceiling wall with man door. The question I have is that my restroom space is only accessible from the tasting room, so when I show my layout for the DSP, there will be no restroom. Do I need to modify my plan so that the restroom is accessible from both areas?

I was following this, how'd you make out?

Have you looked at Hoochware yet? That's who I'm leaning towards https://www.hoochware.com/

I laugh every time I hear that which is typically a few times per day. I'm a LEAN Certified packaging advisor for my day job. Stretch film is what you are using, shrink film is what is around your cases of water. Shoot me a message if you'd like some competitive pricing on your materials.

Are you hand wrapping or by machine? For my day job I'm a packaging material supplier.

will do!

where do your products ship from?

are you still in need? I'll check with my source

@SteelB, please keep us posted as to how you make out with your FDA approvals for the gel. I'm curious as there is alot of information going around about this topic, and it is my understanding that you'd need a whole new license from the FDA and and this falls outside of current TTB regulations,.

Just picked up two of the Ace Rotomold 115 gallon conical tanks. These are screw on lid, full drain and came with stands. I'll need to replace the drain fittings and add valves etc. I'd also like to add a second drain which will be located higher up to allow the finished ferment be drained off without pulling the trub. Anyone done this? Whats the ideal location for the upper valve? Should I go with camlock fittings or triclamp? I'll be picking up up pump eventually and will have that fitted with the same connections. Seeking input/advice.

@Grant, do you know how the lines are being ran on that unit? Looks like the return from the collection vessel is likely just an open ended bulkhead fitting?

lemoncello!

Wow, I need to look that up and figure out how to make one.

While I've been around for a bit, I recently changed my username from madspeed to Pour Decisions which will be my distillery's name once we get zoning approvals.

post up your review once you've had a chance to use it a bit

I have a similar setup on my trial still, 15 gallon keg, single 5500 watt element, 3" column. and I can run in reflux mode to get 195 or pot mode to get whatever output I desire. What type of heating controller do you run? Are your cooling lines separated or run in one continuous loop?

How was that process?

creamy liquors, love em or hate em, I choose to love them!

assuming you inherited this due to a death in the family, sorry to hear about that. There's some well respected members here that should be able to help you out.
