Bourbon run tonight! :dance:

100L of gen 3 BWKO with rye added. Time to test out the parrot now that Ruddy helped fix it for me. Fingers crossed...

Apologies Steve
Yes mate I take out the wheat and put in rye. I use malted rye because it was all I could get at the time.
Makes a very nice drop. The standard BWKO is a very nice drop as well. Nice to have some different options :)
Sorry it took so long to answer mate

Another weekend another stripping run lol.
Building up the low wines so I can have a nice long spirit run when the weather cools :)

How much are you stripping ?

Stripping 45 litres so getting close to done. Then set things up for gen 5 followed by a shower then a catch up with Tacman to see how his handy work turned out.

Not sure how id work out the plates were loaded running blind, please enlighten us how you run.

My hat off to you sir! :clap: :dance: :music-deathmetal:

Hey Rc Al sorry for the delayed reply.

Na just trial and error to start with, and I taste along the way as abv changes. With rum Its pretty easy, I go pretty wide on cuts as I age for a looooooooong time.

No problem mate.
Gonna try the original recipe first but I like the idea of a rye version.

BWKO is a great recipe mate , it always fermented fast and tastes great. Get a good stock,pile so some of it gets older lol

Gen 2 sweet feed. This is caramel popcorn off the still.

Sounds good bigrig. All molly rum for me..

Few days off this week so spirit run of about 50L of the first 3 gens of a BWKO (50% corn, 25% barley, 12.5% wheat & 12.5% rye) to free up the keg to then strip the 160L of FFV... finally, it's been sitting for too long!

mongrel jungle juice for the father in law, keeping a sample though :laughing-rolling:

Was 12 bottles of father in laws homemade wheat beer plus a bunch of different feints from the last 12 months - AG whiskeys, Rums, sugarheads / neutrals.

I wasn't expecting much but it actually come out damn good. This is definitely a white sipper. We got heaps of it too :handgestures-thumbupleft:

:handgestures-thumbupleft: rum for me for forseeable future :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Any reason for stripping welsy? Is it for neutral?

I was stripping due to the heat of the cooling water mate. Now it is getting cooler I will be able to start the bubbler runs again :). The tank sits in full sunlight and is only 2000 litres so I tend to panic lol.
