    This rum recipe is awesome, and it tastes great. Be sure to try this rum recipe it is easy to make with just a few ingredients. Blackstrap molasses of sugar cane. In sugar refining, molasses is separated from the sugar crystals after each of three boiling or extraction processes that sugar cane goes through. The third and final separation is called blackstrap. Rum is a distilled alcoholic drink made by fermenting then distilling sugarcane molasses or sugarcane juice. The distillate, a clear liquid, is usually aged in oak barrels. Most rums are produced in Caribbean and American countries, but also in other sugar producing countries, such as the Philippines and India. Rums are produced in various grades. Light rums are commonly used in cocktails, whereas "golden" and "dark" rums were typically consumed straight or neat, iced ("on the rocks"), or used for cooking, but are now commonly consumed with mixers. Premium rums are made to be consumed either straight or iced.

    You can add 1 to 2 tablespoons of glycerin per gallon of finished product to tame that burn down a bit. It’ll smooth it out so the flavor of the product comes through more prominently.

    I used 1/2 gallon of molasses and 8 lbs of raw sugar in enough spring water to make a 5 gallon wash. I ended up with almost 1 3/4 gallons of proofed down to 75 proof rum. I made half into coconut rum and the rest with medium toasted maple chips, which made a wonderful golden brown rum!! If you use dady yeast, you don't need 2 -3 weeks!! It will work off in less than a weeks time!!

      I would make a corn liquor and add some 5 star anice spice to it during distillation, and then keep it in a jar with some charred oak for about 2 months. When i was a kid around Christmas my Dad would make an italian drink with Anise liquor, and gin it was overkill as far as black licorice goes i hated it but would drink it all because i was a little drunk, he used to get pissed because every time he checked the cabinet i had drank it all i was 14 lol.

      Something is wrong it should always be clear. make sure everything is air tight gaskets are important, and also your fermentation might have went bad because if there is alcohol in it then it should always be clear, the only time it might start even being cloudy is when you have ran it to long that is why you switch out with other jars.

You can get wine yeast and feed it like you would a sour dough i would imagine if you did it right you could keep it alive forever. Best bet would be buying a packet of wine yeast but if shtf and there was none left to be had then everyone would be using flour, or potatoes to make yeast.

      still it with a re flux still
      water down to 40% or less and filter with a good filter carbon and ceramic
      this gives a very pure high grade spirit
      water it down as necessary for your pot still add flavors molasses pineapple licorice root etc??
      run it through a pot still
