We are going to once again offering our 1 day distilling course. During the day we will go through all the processes from grain to glass with hands on approach. You will see the actual operations. Our last class had all of the participants feeling they gained a wealth of knowledge and what they most appreciated was actual seeing all the stages required not just hearing about them or seeing pictures. We have a comprehensive video video presentation with an accompanying booklet. Our Equipment includes a 600 liter Holstein Still with 2 towers and a total of 21 plates. The course will be from 9 to 5. To cover everything it has go for the full time. There is a pizza lunch provided. The items that will be cover are.,
A very short history of distilling discussed
grain grinding
grain cooking
grain fermenting
mash distilling
determining heads , tails and hearts
still maintenance and cleaning
bottling
Maintaining TTb standards for alcohol proof(gauging)

Last time one of the student wrote us before the class questioning if we could do it all in one day after the class he said we we really did it!

Mishawaka is about 15 miles from South Bend. So flying in does not appear
to be an option. But it sounds interesting. Many people might be interested
in buying the video and the accompanying booklet.
