I have a different view of this I suppose. We started in 2009 and had been using a 3rd party records system. We had a routine visit from the TTB at 3 years.

If you don't mind the TTB coming in to your place of business and having them tear through everything you've done in the past 3 years and scrutinize each and every entry, gauge every barrel and tank and then take several samples for their lab to evaluate. Then later come back with a bill for taxes you may or may not owe just because you're using the wrong records system, or your brother who is great at programming but doesn't know anything about the CFR wrote a program that didn't record bottle proofs at the beginning, middle and end of your run or the myriad of other minute details the TTB actually requires you to keep on your production. I guess you could argue that it seems expensive or useless.

After our visit from the TTB we switched to excel, great for keeping records but honestly just too much to maintain, I'd rather be doing what I'm good at, making spirits. So we found Donald and his system. I am confident my records are accurate, defendable and meet the requirements of the CFR. That brings me peace of mind and allows me to focus on what brings me income.

Donald and his team know the regs and have the experience to provide the support. Thats worth every penny they charge.

It's also a concentration issue. When you distill you are making concentrations of these substances. In beer it may only be a small fraction of the percentage of the 12oz you drink. When you distill it you've removed most of the water and created a concentrated version of the items that you've collected. Then the compounds you don't want are more of the overall volume or a higher % of the concentration.

This is not accurate but a good example of whiskey distillate perhaps

beer: 92% water, 3% sugars/malt/hops left over, 5% ethanol with a fraction of a percent "nasties"

spirit right off the still: 30% water, 65% ethanol, 3% oils and fatty acids, 2% "nasties"

So even if you water to bottling proof you still end up with more "nasties" by volume.

Your DSP is issued to your legal entity, but you can add any name to your permit to be used on the back and front of your labels by using form TTB F 5100.18 section 6. This is only necessary if you intend to brand with a name other than your legal entity.

We had a 12kw steam unit from pacific steam that operated continuously up to 150psi that we found on eBay for $800 and it was perfect for our 400 liter Hoga. Heated in an hour and run for 3 hours. Be certain to get the agitator. We don't use it anymore because we outgrew the Hoga and moved on to an Artisan Still Designs unit.

artisan resources has a nice touch screen controller with pneumatic valves, etc.

They key may be in the printing. Have the printer place them on the same backing and aline them correctly so that you can then use pretty much any labeler you like, manual or semi auto. The main label will be spaced further apart so you'll need to have the the sensor on a semi auto labeler aline with the wrap label if that is the one you choose.

Hi all,

I have some extra rye whiskey distillate for sale in totes or barrels. Mash bill is 100% rye from an organic farm in Northern Colorado, harvested in August and mashed, fermented and distilled this fall.

Email me for details at kristian@dpdistillery.com

Thanks,

You're awesome Lenny.

All bottles require head space so not just the room for a cork but air space to allow the liquid inside to expand and contract a little.

Check the drawings for fill height and you will see the intended liquid height for that design and manufacturer.

Then when you fill you will set your filler by volume or fill height. That should be very consistent at 750ml.

Look at the BAM or CFR for container size allowances if you are concerned.

Often times you don't actually go to the contests, just send the fee and the product.

We have one and it's awesome!

If you empty one barrel to top off 10 of the same age then theres no issue with age statement.

Make certain there is no moisture, and follow Lenny's advice.

I have excess organic rye harvested in August and cleaned, available in super sacks (2000 lbs) or 50lb bags (2500 lbs per pallet).

This is not malted. I can mill the super sacks with our hammer mill for $0.05 per pound.

For sale at $0.70 per pound plus freight.

email me if interested.

Its worth the GS1 if you intend to sell with Kroger/King Soopers or Costco. It sucks to change later...

I've been using your stuff since 2009, good quality and good prices.

Welcome to the community.

We protect our grain from pest with a ferocious assassin (cat). Since we got him we haven't seen one sign of a rodent anywhere in our distillery but the bird population is dwindling as well.

The grain is fine sitting on pallets, most bags have moisture barrier to prevent them soaking up ambient humidity and becoming moldy. As long as you are using it in a reasonable timeframe there shouldn't be a problem.
