  1. Hello, I wasn't sure where to put this conversation. I am working for a facility as a full time assistant distiller. We create vodka, gin, whiskey and a few liqueurs in house. I run the day-to-day operations including 90% of the distilling, hand bottling, cleaning, fermentation, inventory, ttb reporting and tasting room operations. Since this is a fairly small industry in the United States I have been having a hard time putting a value on my worth to the company. With that being said I am up for pay raise negotiations in a month. We are set to do 3,000 cases this year. Could anyone pm me their realistic thoughts on a salary for a position such as this. I feel like I am being under-payed for several reasons. Any information would be great! Thanks!
  2. So, I was wondering what the rest of you out there do with your cooling water coming off your still. We are going through almost 1000 gallons a day. We operate in a drought-prone area, and we just hate seeing the water go down the drain. Any good ideas on heat exchangers or reuse of this water? Anyway to close the loop in the system and have it recycle back as cooling water? We have been using it for irrigation, but there is only so many plants we can water without drowning them.
