Can anyone recommend a company that designs company logos and bottle lables. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks!

You can also check with Rick in Billings, Montana. He has done a number of labels and does turnkey work from concept to TTB label approval. The latter is also real important from a time point of view.

I have been fortunate to have inherited some Norit NOX 0.8 carbon but in my search for more I find it for about $800 for a 40 lb bag. That's unrealistic considering many carbons are available for under $2.00/lb. Can anyone recommend carbons and suppliers they are using for spirit polishing? Thanks.

The TTB is very specific in detailing the requirements for padlocks that are used to secure distilled spirits tanks, but there is not a lot of detail around what the specifications are for door locks. I am looking for an acceptable locking door knob to use on the main entrances to our distilled spirits plant without having to use an additional padlock on the door. Does anyone have any recommendations or experiences to share on approved locks?

That's right, they are specific but that same CFR describes what to do if you wish to use locks of an "unusual design". In our case (Free Spirit Distilling of Montana), we made such a submission that was approved and it involved locks that met or exceeded the characteristics described in the CFR but that fit our conditions better. Good luck.

Please include the support of Free Spirit Distilling of Billings, Montana to your list!!

I am new to the forum and just launching a distillery in Billings, Montana. I look forward to meeting you all.
