Depending on your system i'd be aiming for 1070 og just taking your first runnings, meaning you would need up near 18 - 20 kg of grain. Do you use beersmith?

Do you have any research behind this to suggest that any flavour will carry over from vapour-infusion with grain? I mean it works with plant matter, but they have more readily extracted oils. Because the peat smoke is absorbed by the grain, you just might have a shot at pulling it off ;-)
By the sounds of your taste, you just need a big clump or burnt peat in your gin basket! :teasing-neener:

Dont know if its relavent or not, or true or not.
