Vitaweat 9 grain

Postby RobMichelle » Sun Oct 20, 2024 9:11 am

Hi all,
I grabbed a couple of boxes of vitae eat at woolies on special, it’s make wash’s day and I’ve been looking but can’t seem to find any recipes using these, was thinking of adding to the wbab recipe not sure if it will have any benefit or not?

Ok so I decided to go with TSFFV and added 170grams of vitaweat 9 grain in each fermenter. I got 2 boxes between three 23 ltr fermenters, go figure. So il see what happens next week. :-B

Any update yet Rob ?
Did you take SG readings when you first put down the fermentation?

Howdy Rob - new still is going great.
Getting very used to pulling it apart, removing a couple of plates and the copper mesh - so i can do Rum and Scotch runs.

Also getting used to putting all SS through the dishwasher and the copper bits soaking so that it all looks new again.
I'm lucky my 19 yo son is taller than me - I'm getting him to help me re-assemble every time because its easier for him to be reaching the ceiling for the high level connections. :laughing-rolling:

All re-assembled half hour ago (again) ready for a couple batch's of WBAB to go through whilst I wait for my next Scotch fermentation to take its sweet time.
