Open Source Distilling
Welcome to the Open Source Distilling project. Where time-honored tradition, meets modern day technology. Our goal is to get everyone excited about still automation by creating a collaborative community that shares their knowledge about programming and robotics.
We are building our own custom still and decking it out with temperature probes, power controllers, and stepper motor-controlled needle valves. All of this technology and programming is available online for anyone interested in home distilling or for anyone who wishes to contribute ideas. We’ll be engaging the community through topics such as Python programming, 3D modeling, robotics, electric circuitry prototyping, and problem-solving.
Many distillers look to the past for inspiration, we are looking to the future to inspire new creative ways of thinking about craft spirits. Join our adventure to bring age-old traditions into the 21st century.
