  1. Reduced package price to $165,000. Please make offer if interested. Looking to move.
  2. I run across little things like these once and awhile. I'll be sure to post if I see one at a good price and hopefully someone can snatch it up and put it to good use!
  3. Hey Pete. I'm really not sure...never got a quote from the company. Based on what I have seen them selling for, I would guess around $20k?????
  4. Hey Skaalven, That was milled with a 3mm screen in a hammer mill. I just ordered a couple of new screens for the separator and am going to try a 1mm hammer mill screen for our next batch....that is as fine as we ever mill and gives us a nice flour.
  5. I had to share this because I know that I cannot be the only one that has debated on the best way to separate spent grain from mash. We were using a 1/8" perforated screen that was built on an angle over an open tank....terrible method. We ended up with a lot of solids going down into the septic tank, it was labor intensive, and messy. Long story short, I had been watching a Kason Centri-Sifter on Ebay for over a year. I thought it would do a good job but wasn't convinced since I hadn't heard of anyone else using them. I decided to take the plunge and buy myself an early Christmas present. We picked it up for $2,500, which I thought was a steal....but still a big chunk to bite off for something I wasn't sure was even going to work! With just a few modifications to the screen, it's running like a champ on its first day. Below is a link to a video of it in action this morning. It's an ugly baby right now...kind of crammed in our "junk room". We're working on a more permanent solution, but I had to try it as soon as we got it....just like a kid on Christmas morning! If anyone has any questions about it, please let me know. Hopefully this will help someone! https://drive.google.com/file/d/0B1supbYToj38d1JCTHNMT3BNUTQ/view?usp=sharing Adam
  6. We are out of town so don't get a whole lot of foot traffic. People who do make the trip out are usually pretty interested in the production process. We used to charge for tours but ended up moving to free tours. What we have found is that if people are not already into a tour for $10 each and you are able to captivate them with your story, they are MUCH more likely to purchase a bottle & schwag. We were even doing a $10 tour and with that they would get a free tasting and $5 off a purchase of $20 or more....we are driving wayyyyyy more bottle sales with the free tour....crazy.
  7. SOLD We are currently in the process of switching our distillation equipment to focus more on our farm and micro-malting facility instead of contract distilling.

  8. Sure thing. At this point, everything is still available although we have multiple interested parties. We'd be more than happy to show you everything when you get back. Feel free to give us a shout at the distillery anytime at six18-two81-seven733. Thanks, Adam
  9. Sorry...wrong link for the adapter. Here is the 3/4" one we have. http://www.ebay.com/itm/3-4-Sanitary-Female-Threaded-NPT-Ferrule-Pipe-Fitting-to-1-5-Tri-Clamp-SUS316-/281176185269?hash=item41776819b5
  10. I completely agree so I will share our experience. When we initially bought our equipment there were no PRVs. We installed a combo of the following: http://www.supplyhouse.com/Burnham-81660530-Safety-Relief-Valve-15-PSI-for-All-Res-Steam-Boilers http://www.ebay.com/itm/281174886992 $22 per still is a pretty cheap investment so we decided to install after hearing about the most recent accident. It's not the prettiest thing in the world but if it can save a life I'll live with it!
  11. I might be able to help you out. What kind of quantity and proof are you looking for?
