After I ran out of tissues and decided to man up I thought I would try clarifying this shit to see if it makes a difference. So this arvo I heated it up as all instructions on the net says to do. It smells fuckin delicious..dunno how this beautiful black gold could have made such disgusting smelling rum..I am wondering if there was something wrong with the dunder I used or maybe it got an infection or something? It's got me beat cause it smells too good to be shit.
So I gave this molasses one more chance. Cut out all the variables. Just used the molasses , 3 kg of Raw Sugar and Lowans yeast, no dunder,. Just ran this lot through the still and still smells and tastes like arse. Time to bite the bullet and tip the shit down the drain. Can't say i didn't try. Need to stop wasting time on this shit...I am down to my last 10 litres of rum. :laughing-rolling: So for any NQ people in Townsville. Don't get your Molasses from Lens feed shed.
