“Oaking” with cracked corn?

Postby shortcut » Tue Apr 24, 2018 6:08 pm

Hey dudes has anyone tried adding cracked corn to there oaking spirit?
I’m trying it now on 1L of CFW.
I am hoping to extract some corny goodness into it.
Hopefully I invented this?
If it works I’m calling it ,”The Shortcut”. ha.

Also I chucked a cinnamon stick in 1L of WBAB the other day. Effing delicious.

No no, “the shortcut” has already been coined, it’s taking a dump in the shed then burning the evidence the next day :teasing-tease:
I think you’ll definitely get corn flavour, and probably a big mess.
Nothing wrong with experimenting though

I would imagine that dried cracked corn wouldn't give you the flavour your after...

Perhaps split off a couple of smaller samples and use dry cracked corn in one, and perhaps cooked corn in another, to deliver that corn flavour (although, I don't know if cooked corn is good in alcohol)...
