... %ABV of the mash isn't related at all to %ABV of the output. A 2% mash would produce the exact same output percentage as a 20% wash... The 20% wash would...
Hello Peter, I am not familiar with the 2 cup design but I am with the slant plate design and making whiskey with it. Jim is correct. Ditch the packing. It...

I've got me a pot and I've got me a couple of Bok's. Pot is for whisky (no "e") and Boks are for neutral. However, in saying that there should be no problem in...
