I agree. I use gelatin as well. When I use it the wash clears nearly clear. You can see though it.

I figure if your going for a neutral you probaly want least amount of yeast in your boiler. I know this recipe has been around since the dinosaurs but hey it's 2 tsp of gelatin.

Tomato paste wash

Postby Sam. » Tue Nov 13, 2012 8:25 pm

I agree that it is best to have it as clear as possible for nuetrel but I still don't see puking as an issue. I have never had it with these washes doing hard stripping runs.

Has anyone here actually had one of these puke on them?

Ive got 40L thats been sitting for nearly a month and its as clear as soapy water and smells really good, no tom smell. Should I strip it like I always do or do a spirit run?. Pot still.

for speed, many 10s of thousands of ppl have try 1000s of different ways to do this over hundreds of yrs some work better than others , this one method has the consensus of being one of the best . You can use much less yeast but you might want to up the neuts a fair bit (maybe with DAP or brewers yeast) or it will take fucking ages cause that is likely to give you off flavours, to me it seems like a lot of fuck arsing about and expense to save 40 odd cents of yeast

How much auger in your beer wash, 1~2 kg?. Times that by sugar in spirit wash, add nutriments. What Crow Said!!!.

The cost is meaningless, I was simply curious.

did a spirit run on 3 strip washes using my t500. Normally I would taste all the jars and chuck the ones i liked into one big lot. I ended up saving 4 Jars that seemed to have no flavour what so ever. Kept for a special purpose, not sure what yet. The rest that i liked was all put together to be mixed with some essences.

Overall very happy with the results.

I have read that you can also use an egg white mixed with a bit of water, then slowly poured over the wash also works to clear it.

I am seeking some help so I can finally get my first TPW going. I have 2x 30 litre fermenters, however both are currently in use with a VodkaStar wash and a Turbo wash to use the last of my Turbo yeast. I have a brand new 20 litre plastic bucket that is food safe, and I would very much like to use this for a TPW wash. I realise the output will be quite low using a smaller fermenter, but I am really eager to get this started. Maybe when the Turbo wash finishes, I could do the small wash and also use one of the 30 litre fermenters to run just TPW.

Can you good people please advise what amount of ingredients I should use for a smaller wash, I am thinking 15 litres of wash would be maximum for a 20 litre bucket. I have heaps of white sugar, and I also have;

75 grams Citric Acid
375 grams Epsom Salts
200 grams Lowans Bakers Yeast
400 grams Leggos Tomato Paste (8x 50 gram sachets)

For a 15 liter wash i would do 1 tub of tomato paste 1/4 tea spoon epsom 1/4 tea spoon citric acid and 3 kg sugar that will get you going
Oh and 25 gm yeast
