[Tastebridge] SF Underground Market, Jan 15?

[Kathryn Storm]

All of this sounds great! Maybe some sort of loose schedule for the next week or so would be good. I'd like to play. Hope everyone's holiday was nice.

I'll get it registered to Noisebridge so we don't need to worry about the Big Bad Wolf (aka the ATF). Rather than teaching future classes on it, I'd rather have something a lot more interactive. I'm sure for the first several weeks it may be similar to a class since a lot of people will be new to distilling, but I hope to eventually get enough people on board that we start doing something similar with the still that Miloh is doing with kombucha. This could also be used to play into Miloh's longterm tastebridge mission as well - we could start selling fruit and herb extracts at the underground markets for cool kids to try, donate cash to the 'bridge, and help build a self sustaining group.

A rotary evaporator (slang = rotavap) is pretty much a sous vide bath with vacuum distilling capabilities built into it. Its much better in extracting unadulterated essences from things than a traditional still since you don't need to use nearly as much heat.
