Motorad, do you do extract or AG brewing? I found a site homebrewtalk.com, and trying to figure which path to take from my Mr B.
Extract brewing obviously seems easier, but capable of high quality beers. AG/Partial mash brewing seems like a ton of work(AG wise).
The partial mash video I saw didn't look too bad, but you have to have a barley crusher?

Anyone do anything latly?
I cracked some Apple Cider I did 1.5 years ago.. been aging... me and my buddy opened 1gal jug of it, in the idea of Tasting it.. and checking carb level.. we ended up drinking the entire 1gal jug it was so good.. to top it off, It was at 9.2% alc/vol..

I started with making beer, added wine, then when a 5 gal wine batch got messed up I started distilling. First with a gallon jug, a crock pot filled with mineral oil and a water cooled tube to start with, then on to a larger one. ?Larry?s Brewing Warehouse? in Kent Washington sells all kinds of Brewing supplies and BEAUTIFUL distilling tanks. When I was making beer I took him a sample of one I had made up and he told me what and how much of everything I had put in the batch! Amazing. Nice guy too. Decided to stop it all and had him sell all my stuff. Distilling was great fun. I distilled everything using the gallon jug first to see what it would taste like and the original flavor of whatever I distilled always came through. My favorite was a dark beer I brewed. Distilled about ten gallons out of a 16 gallon batch of that once I liked it so much!

I still have all my bottles, swing lock tops, haven't used them in 30 years. I had to wash off the dust for the picture. About 50 of the small bottles, 30 of the pint size, 15 wine type and 5 of the big bottles.
2 of the clear flask type. I should drag out my stuff and make a batch.
