Sorry dude that was 13 minutes long.

I ducked out at 15 seconds.
Some of the stuff I post here may seem a little hazy to people not drinking with me.
But please tell me if I get that bad?
At that point, my continuance to the site will have lost any meaning.

You are as close to irreplaceable (sp?) as it gets.

I'd say most of the obvious has been discussed repeatedly, so I was attempting to follow the trend for slightly less on topic threads, while staying on topic.

I imagine there are many very good youtube distilling videos that I haven't seen yet and I'd rather watch those than bloody x factor.

[Easydrinker]

That wasn't a rocket mate.
And if this thread takes off,Great!
I like new and off topic stuff.
And wandering in other directions, and back into history.
Sometimes you just have to make snap decisions upon where you are going to allot some of the remaining minutes of your life.
Not that I expect mine to end soon, but I am closer to the end than the beginning,and have a feeling that I have to use my time well.
Oh that the Interweb had come along only Forty years ago.....

Great thread C...I love bits like this, I did a thread a while back which was music to still by

Now watching that Taz hillbilly I don't think I'd chance a glass or two with him.. was the bucket his wife's mop bucket??

I find bits of info like this...https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=svNwR6U6r7M worth a look....in fact I do shake the old kilner jars and you can see what he's on about.

Now this guy here comes in for loads of criticism from the USA/Assie site members...and I've read on Youtube were folks have told him he's wrong in lots of ways.

Again C.,that is 30 minutes that I don't need to spend, but please keep them coming, others will appreciate you collecting links like this.
I appreciate you doing so, I just won't use many of them
Spontaneous decision, I am making this a stcky.
I hope you or others, continue to post links.

There are a lot of videos there and I've watched most of them. Many/most are "what not to do" or contain elements of what not to do. There are a few good ones and on a slow day I'll put together a list with links and comments of what flaws are obvious to this newb.

The infamous loony Larry and just about the only review I've seen of chinese pot stills https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gB5mWTq6S6g

It's been a while since I watched this. I certainly recall that all the rubber gaskets and washers need replaced by silicon (at least) and preferably ptfe (teflon)

Most people will say that aluminium pots are bad and stainless steel is better if it really is stainless steel.

Most will also say that the thumpers and/or condensers/coils in those chinese stills are way too small.

What was the name of the distilling transvestite that did all of his videos in some kind of bikini?! I still get nightmares about that now

[Easydrinker]

She is still out there,and asking after you..

Robert.

[Curmudgeon]

I am sure I've seen all the free distilling and moonshine videos. You guys must be watching a premium pay per view channel.
