  1. Just taking a flyer but I bet if you google "Vancouver still maker" you will get your answer.
  2. We just assemble line it. Set up 6 or 7 people and we can turn out about 1,400 bottles in around 4 hours. One person filling, one corking, one spinning on labels, one adding safety seal and clear Shrinkwrap seal, one shrinking the seal and one numbering and putting it back in the case.
  3. Water will never get hot enough. You can use just about any heat transfer oil or even just fryer oil will do just fine at a fraction of the cost.
  4. Anyone using Whitestar yeast for anything? Did a search but dint see them mentioned.
  5. Usually its more like 30 gallons open and 120 closed per control area with no sprinklers.
  6. You should use Organic ingredients since they produce a far superior spirit.
  7. Tapi is another, although it tough to recommend them at the moment they have been a total shit show the last 4 months or so.
  8. You never mentioned where your located. It would probably be helpful to contract semi locally at least. Make it easier to oversee production and quality.
  9. Just start with nothing and buy what you need when you need it. Biggest wast is getting a bit ass loan and just buying stuff for the sake of buying stuff.
  10. Pretty sure you pay at the rate that you removed it at, If you removed it from bond last year thats 13.50. But let us know if you hear anything from TTB
  11. Paging Mr Dunbar, Mr David Dunbar, please come to the conversation. But seriously if you could do this, it would be a great idea and stretch this out. Although i think they will just extend this at the end of two years. Seems like once they give tax breaks its hard to take them away.
  12. So maybe a thumper and doubler are the same. With the intake pipe submerged and a sober box is with the inlet pipe not submerged?
  13. We got our still in a few weeks ago. We have not installed it since we are just finishing up construction. But i can tell you it was a seamless process from ordering to them shipping it and handling all he customs. Equipment showed up in great shape and very clean. Looks like we could run out of it without even doing a cleaning run. We won't but it definitely looks clean.
  14. How are you taking you proof readings? Old school thermometer and hydrometer? Could you just be reading it slightly off, those thing definitely have a learning curve.
  15. I thought a thumper had the in feed line submerged in liquid giving it a "thumping" sound as it bubbled. And a doubler just created more air space in a second container. But I'm really have no idea.
  16. If i was going to buy product from someone else it seems like where it comes from would be very important. But i guess thats just me.
  17. So did you distill these barrels on site? An answer like that makes it sound like they are sourced barrels that you brought in and never used.
  18. How is it not legal? Im organic certified, i get inspected yearly and best i can tell no one is tossing me in jail. So your saying a there is no difference between an organic certified candy bar and a regular candy bar?
  19. can you reverse the pump and suck it back out?
  20. Good to know i cant label my product "organic" thanks for the info and i guess time to get my labels re printed.
