  1. This is still available. Answers to a couple of common questions that we've received: It requires a low pressure steam boiler with 300k BTU capacity There is a CIP pump and an Agitator motor that both require 3-phase. We had it wired for 240v at 3.83 amps We've attached the drawing of it from DYE for size questions DYE-300gal-I Model-Ф350 20200714.pdf

  3. This is a beautiful DYE Combination Pot/Hybrid Still for sale. Plumbed for Steam. This is a complete still with CiP pump, all plumbing, ready to use. Was lightly used for a year and a half, boiler broke and is not currently installed. We bought a prototype electric still to replace it. We love everything about this still, and when it was running it produced great tasting product. We had it inspected by Kris from Distillerynow@gmail.com and he gave it a thumbs up. 4 Mueller Style Bubble Plates with internal bypass, 350mm or 13.5". Manual valve to adjust to pot still configuration. Agitator and Pump wired for 3-Phase. Located in Southern California. Email for more pictures or to see in person.

  5. At this rate, we'll never use it. Probably just going to suck it up and use Whiskey Systems and pay through the nose. There are no good options if you do any volumes.
  6. Anyone having issues with switching from Whiskey Systems ($750/month) to OnBatch? We've been paying for both systems while OnBatch tries to switch us over but it has been incredibly slow and painful.
  7. We purchased too much! These bottles are American made by Anchor Hocking and are 750 ml Stockholm style bottles. We have 10 pallets for sale (7,680 bottles) at $1.65 per bottle plus shipping from Southern California. Price negotiable if you buy all 10 pallets.
  8. I have stories. That guy is a piece of work. If you're on the west coast you have some options. BSG Distilling is carrying it as well as Breckenridge Tech. Let me know if you need their contact info.
  9. I have almost a pallet of 375mL Philadelphia flasks for sale. These are the Made in the USA bottles from Piramal. We are moving in a different direction with our bottles. 102 cases of 12-packs. 17 cases per row, 6 rows. Cost is close to $1.28 plus shipping. We'll sell these for $.64. $783.36 for everything! Shipping from 91978. Diagram and pictures attached. Philadelphia Flask.pdf
  10. We are building out a distillery with a tasting room inside a mixed use building, apartments over commercial, and have had NO issues getting insurance. I also asked another distiller in SD that is in a mixed use building, and she hasn't had any issues either.
  11. Jumpstone, talk to Laura at You and Yours in San Diego. She can tell you what she went through in regards to opening a space inside a residential area. We looked at doing the same thing, where it was commercial on the ground floor with apartments overhead. It can be done, but you need to know the CFR's. We are working with a local ABC Consultant that also does TTB work. I highly recommend them, or someone like them to help navigate you through the process.
  12. I have 663 clear and 442 frosted 375mL Futura bottles. Technical drawing attached. 220 6-pack custom Blank White Futura cardboard boxes. Looking to sell in one pallet to save money for shipping, and selling below cost at $5/case, $.83 per bottle. 1350 wood grain synthetic light brown corks, $.215 each, or $290. $1,200 plus shipping takes it all. Shipping from 92118. Please Contact: Ed Weisbrod 619-392-5557 or ed.weisbrod@gmail.com Futura specs.pdf Futura-bottle_EN.pdf
  13. Hey Cestrin, We had the exact same problem on our still with an off-grain mash and it was due to unfermentable sugars in the wash. We started using enzymes and it completely eliminated the problem. Get a hold of a rep from J.Tech Sales. 888-803-8270. Our rep in SD is JB Harrell 925-984-6000 (Cell). Great guy, very knowledgeable. We used Laminex C2K, and it did the trick. Not exactly cheap, but cheaper than upgrading your still, and will also give you higher yields in the mash. Get him to send you a sample. You might be able to use it in your current mash, but usually you add it before the fermentation. Good luck, Bill
  14. I know I'm a little late to this topic, but we scorched some whiskey awhile back due to the Rye not completely converting during the mash. We double distilled and ran it through an activated Charcoal filter, and it was completely better. Lost a lot of flavor, but it's better than throwing away $4500 worth of whiskey. We are aging it separately for an exclusive tasting room release...
  15. Hey Adam, What's your current availability on the Milled Wheat, and Milled Corn? We are looking at maybe 1 or 2 sacks of each to start. Bill
  16. Could you send me the contact info of the supervisor? The gin is a distilled gin so no formula needed for the regular label. When I wanted to change to a "Barrel Rested" Gin they kicked the COLA back for a formula approval. I asked the TTB Agent in the Formula division why I need a formula, and I was told that any color added to the gin must be approved because color is not a part of the gin category. Fine. (I believe aged gin is getting a new sub-category here soon) I submitted a formula for the distilled gin, rested in a barrel, got the approval and then they approved the COLA. True story.
  17. Well, don't know what to tell you but when I submitted my Barrel Rested Gin label they kicked it back for a formula with the barrel resting in it. My label finally got approved this week. You might have gotten luckier with whomever at the TTB that was working on your label.
  18. Ask the TTB. But if you want to put barrel rested on the label, you need to have an approved Gin formula. That formula is going to have the barrel as a flavor, and then have it in the Method of Manufacture that the gin was rested in the barrel.
  19. We are working on a barrel rested Gin, with the formula approved and now the label is almost done. The TTB is becoming more of a pain in the butt when it comes to barrel aging spirits. You can't use the words "Barrel Aged" it has to be "Barrel Rested". No age statements are allowed, you can't even put "Barrel Rested" on the same line as Gin. You have to put it above or below. I wasn't even allowed to say "Rested in once used Whiskey Barrels". I couldn't make any reference to what was in the barrel previously. I know that others have gotten labels approved in the past, but they are much more stringent now.
  20. San Diego is home to 9 Active Distilleries as well as several distilleries in planning. Attached is the San Diego's Distillers Guild Brochure. Many of the distilleries will be having special ADI Conference Hours. Check their websites/social media for more info! SDDG brochure-4.pdf
  21. Hey CaptnKB, I know a couple in San Diego County. AMG Distributing, and Pelican Spirits both in San Marcos.
