All going really well so far! :handgestures-thumbupleft:
First Tomato paste wash produced well,racked it off and stripped it down with the Pot still I just made up. Used the new parrot, worked really well I think:
Pulled 11 litres of crystal clear low wines off 50 litres. When all combined the ABV is 52%
I think this sounds about right for yield. :-B
I have another wash fermenting now and plan on doing the same, all going according to plan that is.
Might even be able to fit three stripped and diluted washes into the 50 litre keg for a final spirit run. We will see.
So stoked with the new (to me) concept of stripping runs.
I am going to start looking into trying a molasses wash and pot still rum but I'ma long way off being that savvy yet.
In the mean time I have a new element on the way and my brother (electrician) will be wiring it up for me. The weldless one I have has shit itself. Going to weld in a flange and do it right this time.
Cant thank you all enough for the help and tips and support. You are a top bunch and worth more money.
Will keep ya all posted.
