Seb, if nothing else, since she had to use your funds(?) for the purchases,
you’ll be getting investor repayments on top of everything else, so just
enjoy it. I’m sure someone can find out how to make oak barrels, I’ve seen
it done many times and printed one that worked just like the real thing
(yes, the rings and slats, bottom and top with a “cork”) that turned out
pretty good, needed some tweaking though. Wouldn’t hold water, go figure…
Scar, with modern bio printing tech, you’ll soon be able to print out, to order
shaped planks, ends and corks as needed. (Thinking about 5 years. Tweaking
seasonality and “year” rings might take a bit longer for proper wood seasoning).
Then, once you’ve assembled your barrels, charming the interior is the next task.
After that, fill them with your distilled best and wait.
Of course, with those gravity drives, you SHOULD, in theory, be able to accelerate
a pocket of time around the barrels, so the could age twenty plus years in a few
months. (This is including time to shut down the time acceleration to check on
the aging of the product. This has to be done every now and then, but I’m not sure
how often.)
Oh, the joys of being a polymath.know a bit about a lot of things, enough to be
average at a bunch of skills, but not quite enough to be an expert on most of
those…
This is a miniature, about the size of a coffee cup. But I do get
what you are saying, I’ve been following the HUGE number of
experimental printers out there, from house printing (which is
a joke, it only cuts about 25% of the work) chocolate, ceramic,
and so on. Plus the huge size they are reaching, I seen one guy
that is trying to build one that 2 meters by 2 meters, yeah, I
wish him the best, I can only imagine the nozzle size and the
type of feed it’ll need just to run.
I think the gravity bubble you speak of would be very dangerous,
almost like a neutron star level. The energy wouldn’t be an issue,
only the risk of anything around it getting pulled in. Plus, that is
describing a warp drive from Star trek.
Hell, I just remembered seeing a YouTube video of a
bridge-building machine in China that uses Mig welders
to construct small to medium bridges anywhere they
can set the machine up!

I’ve got a birthing box setup so it’s just a matter of time…
Birthing box? Bwaaa haaaaa haaaa! She’ll have them wherever
she is when she goes into labor. On your bed, in your closet,
on top of your wife’s shoes . . .
I know, which is why it’s in our closet, behind some boxes,
she has to climb back there to reach it. I know that cats
like to hide when they give birth, and she hid in there when
we first got her, so I figured it was my best shot, rather
than walking in the bedroom and seeing new-borns and an
nasty mess on the bed.
That’s the issue, he’s thinking he’s going to have to run it,
even though Kristy has been for weeks and seems to be
breaking even at least in the short time she had. He can
still retire, and reap the benefits of being a “silent partner.”

To me, there’s a difference between a good stiff drink,
and a good stiff drunk. I’ve been known to imbibe in a
good drink every once in awhile, say, once every week
or two.
But a good stiff drunk? That’s an oxymoron right there.
Nah. I turned my back on that too many decades ago,
being drunk is something that I DON’T miss.
I’ll decide earlier in the day that I want a drink at the end of the day,
I’ll get busy, and forget to get that drink. I’ve got bottles in my liquor
cabinet I bought a good five or ten years ago, that haven’t even cracked
the seal on… (Some I think might be even older from all the dust on them!)
Too bad YouTube is history in the TGW universe. I’ve watched a
couple of videos on the manufacturing of barrels. I wonder if
any of the barrel which would have been at Seb’s distillery
survived.
If so they could contract with a wood worker and metal smith to
take one apart and figure out how to make more. Of course even
when they solve the barrel problem it will still be years
before they have whiskey to sell. I understand that stuff
has to sit and age in those barrels for years.
But they ought not to be limited to “151and rotgut”. I don’t
think vodka, gin or rum requires aging. Of course I know
nothing about making any sort of alcoholic drinks. All I have
ever done is watch some videos. Surely there are books
somewhere in Jericho on making things. I cannot remember the
name of the books but I have heard of a series of books that
explain how to make darned near everything.
vodka is ‘Russian moonshine’.! it wasn’t till 1800’s added potatoes.
also it had a “Low” alcohol content.
Gin = juniper wine.. bathtub gin is gin added to other drink to
cover taste (prohibition)
Rum is aged in “Other used” cask’s (bourbon) to get it’s flavor.
151 & rotgut & vodka,. are the “Drink Now” alcohol. as in not
aged (for flavor). so tend to be harsher & bitter..
I have a friend that’s making his own rum with a home distillery,
he’s made some that pass 160 proof, but his 130 is the
smoothest stuff I’ve ever drank! He’s really into it and has joined
a small community of brewer in the area, He’s toying with making
stuff from water and dissolved hard candies right now, I’m
wondering how that’s going to turn out. He told me he tried to
make sourmash whiskey, but it was nasty. I guess he’s going to
circle back to it later.
sourmash = the left over mash from the last batch,
added to the new mash,. to keep the PH levels
constant. if done right it keeps the flavor right from
different barrel runs and reused barrels..

Yeah, I’m something of a problem drinker myself.

the most common is buy and load from ‘Amazon’..
but if you really want you “Can” buy DVD (an VHS)
also from Amazon..
I want to buy physical copies. My curiosity know few bounds…
Winemakers often use oak barrels for part of
the fermentation and aging, so I’d be surprised
if they don’t already know how to make them.
Winery’s get their barrels from Coopers..
most popular is the French Coopers,.
since 99% of the oak is French..
Next most popular would be the Riverdale Coopers.
