  1. Does anybody happen to know the viscosity of bourbon mash? Trying to get a heat exchanger sized. Anybody have any knowledge on this it would be greatly appreciated. Thank You
  2. I am talking about stillage. Need the number due to some regulatory issues.
  3. Anybody come across numbers as to the BOD content of whiskey wastewater? As well as any information on evaporation ponds, aeration, and biological organisms to expedite the breakdown process would be greatly appreciated.

    Rum Setback

    For those of you that are making rum from molasses, what are you doing with the setback? I have heard several options, but sans just dumping it down the drain and using a portion for souring I would like to know if it can be utilized in any other way. Thank you.

  8. Anybody know how to remove scorched molasses from the bottom of a boiler? I have no direct access to the bottom of the boiler so using steel wool or elbow grease is out of the question.
  9. I know this topic is quite old but PM if you still need this info. There are smaller dists in Texas.
  10. If I am running an air powered diaphragm pump for mash transfers and the manufacturer of the pump states that I'll need 150 CFM at maximum PSI, but when I talk to an air compressor sales guy he suggests I buy a 50 HP AC that is the size of a truck and costs about the same. I know there are members out there that are using the same type of pump, 2 inch outlet/inlet, for mash transfers and if at all possible could you let me know what size of air compressor you are using? A simple HP rating would be fine. Thank you very much for your help.
  11. Anybody out there know how efficient it would be to use the steam from a boiler through a heat exchanger for heating mash water rather than using a HLT? Thank You
  12. McMaster-Carr has shell in tube heat exchangers.
  13. I am going with Triad Boilers out of West Chicago, Illinois. I have been talking to boiler companies for months and Triad was understanding as to what was needed for my operation. Most boiler companies do not understand the needs of a distillery, they will give you a system that is more suited for a large building, or industrial application. Triad is also the manufacture so you will save 20-30%. I am looking at less than 75k for 5 million btu, LP.
  14. Greetings. Amy body out there know of a means to etch/burn/engrave the head of a barrel? Companies that provide such equipment would be appreciated. Thank you.
  15. Shipping is also a factor to consider when looking at suppliers.
