Just running my first wash using the Bird Watchers Recipe. I am very disappointed. Followed recipe to the letter. It tastes as bad as all the rest of my...
Just a guess, you are consistently using an awful-tasting turbo. While some turbos appear to taste less awful, many of them make terrible-tasting wash, which...
I agree with the Lavalin yeast use. I have used it many times and it does produce a better wash. It produces less yeast "poop" than the turbo yeasts so there...
What kind of still are you using and what cuts did you take? If you look at tasteless stuff you really should consider using a column still and doing...
On a community water system, just tested it myself with a result of 165 ppm. Needless to say I don't drink the stuff, and rarely even use it for ice. I don't...
Hello to all, I have a copper valved reflux still with a 2" column packed with stainless steel scrubbers. I have just removed the scrubbers to clean the...

I was just feeding the "mother" for tomorrow's sourdough when I started thinking how nice it smelt and how well it bubbled. Then it occured to me that Belgians...
yes high ph. is not good for better tasting spirits..you can get distillled water for 89 cent at drug stors..and then all you nead is a little water...
before introducing this to a mash, do one to two over night cultures. IE: take your sourdough and put a thumb nails worth in a 500 ml sugar wash of 90 - 95 f ,...
It's probably pretty close to brewing water requirements...my reccomendation is to buy RO (reverse osmosis) water from the grocery store;Â it's typically...
I've done champagne sorbets in the past, but this dry ice technique looks very interesting. Pity about the timing - just in time for the SA summer, and for our...
Has anyone seen a recipe that comes close to this? I got a bottle for my birthday last night and I am hooked, so of course I have to try and make my own :)...
