It sure is, 5hr strips on the other hand :think:

better get comfy for another run

same old, same old

Like your funnel.

Did a run of some old CFW that's been sitting around for a few months and restarted my journey to all grain. Managed to just hit sg of 1.05, need to work on my grind sizes.

I've bought a decent mill, now I need a decent drill (or motor) to power it!

Haha yeah, its taking so long, and i went on holiday overseas for a month and forgot where i was at. Got a power controller coming so I'll slow spirit run after this strip than have the mandatory 8 week minimum wait apparently.

Kale wash..

whats your plans for the neutral bluc?

This time round some maccerations maybe som berries or lemonchello. Eventually will be making it for gin.. :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Stripping all mollases rum. Interestingly this wash has been sitting for 3 months while I've been in the northern territory..my yield is through the roof! Might have something to say about ferment completion?

How much we talking?

I've taken 3.5l strip from 25l wash 7l mollases I normally take 2.5

never done an all molasses, but that seems low.
i strip 35ltr washes down to 15-20% and get 8ltrs a run. Could be because i use half sugar though

Second strip run of all grain whiskey. I am ready for you this time foam monster. :teasing-tease:

Sitting on an all grain while it clears and started a nice 40 ltr of UJ's. Hit 1.09 on the SG, boilin' away in the kitchen. :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Happy rum run :teasing-neener: 10l low wines with 25l wash all mollases rum. Think I'll lay this lot down on French oak

Whiskey sugarhead :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Not really a run, but trying to get my malt barley to dry. After a bit of stuffing around, got my drier of sorts going.
