I just got some fyrewrap elite for mine. Reflectix only goes to 180f.

Thanks pete, I'll check it out. Good info in there.

Great suggestions everyone. I'll try them out.

We have an old stainless steel jacketed tank we bought some time ago that has some rust in it. We're hoping to use it as the base of a pot still. I've tried Bar Keeper's Friend, and a rust removing gel and both have helped but I still can't remove all the rust. The photo shows the bottom of the pot. First, any other ideas on removing the rust? Second, is it usable? What would happen it we ran it with the rust in it? Thanks, Ron

Does the tasting room and distillery have their own separate, clearly marked entrances on the drawings you submitted to TTB? You shouldn't have a problem as you describe as long as you meet that requirement. Ask them to cite in the CFR regulations exactly the rule you are breaking. Ron

All 100 gallon fermenters still for sale, all hardware, valves, etc.. included. $1500 each Mash tun and still sold

We have four 3bbl stainless steel, conical bottom fermenters for sale (no jacket). Only one has been barely used, the rest are new but we can't use them in our current setup. We bought them from Bubba's Barrels some time ago and can offer a significant discount over new and with zero lead time. We also have a 100 gallon mash tun with false bottom and clean out port and motor mount. We also made a 100 gallon custom finishing still from the same tanks. We're located in Knoxville TN and these are all ready for immediate pickup. Please PM for prices. Thanks, Ron

I've seen a beer called Citra Ass Down...great name!

We decided to go the fluid heater route instead of steam but not because we believed it would be more efficient. Our main purpose was to get away from having a costly boiler room and inspections especially since we're in a small space. We have a glycol/water electric heater that can sit on a skid next to the still and isn't a pressurized vessel, so no inspections and no additional space required for probably similar price to a boiler. But since we're not running yet I can't say how good or bad it all works.

I'll add one more. Rusty has a great, well-rounded class that hits on all the main details of starting your own distillery at a very reasonable cost. Two of the other instructors that he's brought in to help teach have also provided valuable advice for free after the class. Ron

Matt, We went with 6" but haven't opened yet so can't tell ya how it's working out. Good luck on getting up and running! Ron

You also need formula approval if you just call it "whiskey"

Still looking if anyone want to move to beautiful East Tennessee.
