my dunder pit

Postby rash » Mon Oct 23, 2017 6:44 pm

Have had this lot of dunder going for a few weeks now. not entirely sure what it is "supposed" to look like.
Does it look ok? mould smells like a yeasty acetone if that makes sence... Has a wild yeast started eating the dead yeast from the boiler?
Got a rum wash ready to run. how much of the dunder are others using?
Is this safe? lol :puke-huge:
Thanks,
Ash

Don't know much about them myself but here are a couple of links that might help

There's probably more but you'll find them. I find the search button next to the recipe icon is better for finding theads than the one up top :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Thanks guys,, have been searching and reading for last couple of hours. My pit looks almost drinkable as is compared to the pits i have seen on here! :scared-eek:
Will use a couple of litres in my next bubbler run - 23ltrs +feints and see how it goes. Think its around gen 4.
