You know that when you show up to HQ and there's already a crowd congregated to watch the recording, as was the case here, that it's going to be an interesting episode. My understanding is we had a handful of people over from the Whiskey Vault crowd who were also patrons, and of course we had Jesse on scene to help the guys understand stills.

I think the plan was to do a video on whiskey distilling and a separate video on emergency water distilling, but it smeared together in one sticky Dr. Pepper amalgam somewhere along the way. You may have noticed the still sat to the side. Well, we briefly mention it in this FPE, but I think it's another type of still (reflux) and we never quite got to it just to simplify the narrative of the video.

We had a lot of trying to patch up the bucket as it was leaking, but the real reason you want to watch this FPE is for a heap of Jesse's accent and his hearty laugh.
