Big Eaze shows us how to make his triple infused #PeachBrandy. #moonshine #philbillymoonshine #bigeaze #still #copper #diy #howto #homemade #shinetok #shine #kegstill
I’ve got all my ingredients together and I’m fixing to make your peach brandy recipe in a 5 gallon batch and I’ll run it on a cheap ass Chinese pot still. It will be my first attempt at making any distilled alcohol and I can’t wait to run it I’ll let you know in a couple of weeks how it went. Thanks Brother
I've got 30 gallons of this mash working like a MF'r right now, can't wait to taste it! Thanks for the video.. really hoping that infusion carries over a good amount of flavor.
Awesome content as a beginner I really enjoy your clear explanation of what your doing one of the best videos I have seen so far on distilling thank you
Thanks for the video I’ve always wanted to watch the thumper work nobody ever wants to show everything would love to have a quart of that good stuff 😆👍
Sorry about that big easy I must have been watching you and George at the same time and got you mixed up but I like your videos too especially that peach I've did that a couple of times and boy is over good
Well I going shopping for copper I agree with that other comment that thumper is trick thanks for sharing gave me some good ideas how to improve the still and product
I just watched your video and I'm very impressed at how much knowledge you have . I've wanted to try making something but honestly don't know where to start. Thank you for a very entertaining video showing the work involved in making something fantastic. Oh man I love some peach anything. Thank you.
I remember making some homemade hooch. I took it to my friend Steve Magee, I told him it was in the Degassing Stage. He must have forgot what I told him. He said it sounded like a gun went off in the kitchen. I put in a Jack Daniels bottle this thing blew and their kitchen was such a mess. All he had to do was loosen the cap, or take a sewing needle and get red hot over the stove. Piercing the lid would've helped release the gases. 🤔
Great job brother! It stinks what’s going on right now with the train derailment! LORD be with y’all…..So 5 gallons boiled-poured on peaches, 3 gallons mixed with sugar and another 12 gallons to equal 20? Keep it up Big Ez!
oh also, the 100 proof IS marked on the hydrometer.... the "P" stands for "proved"... which is where the term comes from.. if the liquid that that hydrometer is floating in is 60° and 100 proof, then the liquor is said to have "been proved" i.e. It's of sufficient potency to be used for barter or payment. #TheMoreYouKnow 😊
I've just started to make some different things. Have no still yet but I have a pressure cooker that I'm turning into a still for some small runs. I started making wine. Started with black Berry and it wasn't to pretty second time lot better. Now I'm making a apple peach wine. That is working off and going to try and make shine. Wish me luck
If your in a competition with a couple buddies to see who can make the best liquor, I don’t think using store bought would be allowed lol. But the only rule outside a competition is don’t poison anyone and that’s easy.
First time I made some shine I was 14 and my fr. Robert thought I was A. King went to school told some fr and my they freaked out wanting some and a couple of them parents were. Some high ups lol
I'm a home brewer I love to make wine and beer ..that said I would love nothing more than to distill one of my high abv meads I bet it would be heaven in a bottle! but it is not legal to have a still at home where I live I envy you, sir. I don't have the skills to make or run a still so ill stick to what I know Shine brightly brother!
champagne yeast produces more alcohol...and when I do my red currant wine it is important to sample the result five times a day... One might get used to it.
I take it you're an old heating and air guy. Well i said that because of your collar but now I'm thinking you're a sprinkler guy. My name is eric too. U know how we Are, we gotta know everything lol
100 % proof how can anyone drink it that strong in Europe that would be illegal or am I missing something? Very interesting video, I make home wine in England and fermented spirits as stills are not permitted..
The pectic enzyme does not extract flavor it stops cloudiness when fermenting fruit, also if you had added lemon juice to the water when you dissolved the table sugar you invert the sugar making it easier for the yeast to use it , you have a % of unusable sugars if you dont.
I have played around with distilling just for fun Experimented with different sugars and fruits at first then learned how to mash and played with different grains and starches Some of the fruits did taste good but corn was the best. It was smoother and didn’t cause any hangover symptoms the next day, But anything that used table sugar to boost the gravity did pretty bad.
@@marklilly7197 brown sugar doesn’t seem as bad,… not bad.. there is heads Hearts and tails Grains seem to have a bigger heart portion. But yes if I’m gonna boost a little I would use brown sugar over white for sure. Corn wheat and barley boosted with Karo or molasses to 1.095 is not bad at all if you make good cuts
Don't know why or how I got here but like a proper Paddy, I stayed through the lock-in to the end. You sir have just got a new subscriber. Keep it, and long may the potcheen keep flowing 🤗🥴😵☠️
Nice video. When using a pot still with a thumper, do you heat the thumper? What liquid do you put into it if I'm not looking to infuse flavor? Rather than using temperature to know where you are in the distillation process, you are using percentages of the mash being distilled? 1st 35% is foreshots which are discarded, then next 30% is the hearts (the good stuff) and the final 35% is the tails also discarded? Thanks!
Awesome video Bro can’t wait to try the recipe was wondering would this recipe be the same with any other fruit or would it be a difference in quantity of fruit Thanks
About to make my wash this weekend finally got all my supplies gathered up and bananas are super cheap right now. Think I’m gonna try it with them for the 1st run and peaches next. I had one more question about the water should the wash itself be made with distilled water or just to proof it down? Thanks again can’t wait to get this batch made 🍻
No need for yeast nutrients, there’s plenty of nutrients in the fruits for the yeast to thrive off of. I only use nutrients on sugar washes. But if you want to use yeast nutrients you can there’s nothing wrong with it.
I appreciate you taking the time to show step by step.
I appreciate you watching!!!!!

Awesome man thanks for sharing
Thanks for watching
Well I going shopping for copper I agree with that other comment that thumper is trick thanks for sharing gave me some good ideas how to improve the still and product
great recipe! thanks for sharing.
Thank you for watching
Store bought liquor in thumper isn't something I would have thought about, great idea!
Awsome!
I just watched your video and I'm very impressed at how much knowledge you have . I've wanted to try making something but honestly don't know where to start. Thank you for a very entertaining video showing the work involved in making something fantastic. Oh man I love some peach anything. Thank you.
You can make it a lot easier than you think.
@@bigeaze5711 where is the best place to start. I seen a 1.5 gallon small copper still. Would that be a fair starter.thanks again
I’d suggest a 10-20 gallon they’re perfect to learn on and big enough to be worth your time and effort to run
@@bigeaze5711 Thankyou for the excellent advice. I'll have to do some searching around to see what's out there.
I like that infusion rig bro👍🏿
Thanks it worked really well too
Well done boys!
Just looking at that. I would love to try some. I need someone near me to make this
I've heard of shooting the thumper with the same fruit, but the addition of schnapps was a pretty good idea. I'll have to give this a try one day.
It works great, let me know how it works for you, you could also use flavored vodka
Absolutely
@@elvisream3322popcorn added shine
My first was a gallon but it worked wonders for our small gang
Great video
Reminds me of the hootch we used to make in the joint.
love this vidio great job
Thanks for taking the time to watch it
Danke fur das Hochladen sehr intresant

So freaking awesome!!! I can’t wait to get some land and the right materials to do this. Thank you so much for the video!!
Thanks for watching
Does seem like he is going to extreme

Goood work 👍 fellow brewer!! 😎
Like the recipe, gonna have to give it a try when the new still gets here.
It’s one of the best runs I’ve ever made
I tried to subscribe , but , RUclips says I have too many subscriptions !!!! Keep posting videos !!!! I'll keep watching !!!!
Dang Earl . Now that’s a good video .
Thanks for watching
Hey sounds good
You mentioned making banana brandy… do you have a video of that ???? Thanks for the help.
i dont use a thumper, but I really like your infuser.
Shine on Brother!
And the fun begins lol😅😅😅

Good luck, blackberry can come off real medicinal, Philbilly’s hack for taming that medicinal taste is to add some jam to the thump keg…
@@bigeaze5711 thanks for the advice Big Eaze. I'll let you know how things turn out
I would like to try a little bit of that
Awesome
I bought an old watered heater and wrapped it around my mash barrel. I can set the temp and it will do its thing
If your in a competition with a couple buddies to see who can make the best liquor, I don’t think using store bought would be allowed lol. But the only rule outside a competition is don’t poison anyone and that’s easy.
Same yeast I use yessir
Hey. How does someone get one of your channel stickers.
Did you make your own still reminds me of popcorn Sutton 😊
Excellent video! Noticed your copper still. Can you please make a video on how you go about cleaning your copper still? Much appreciated!
Just do a vinegar water run and steam it through for about 30 minutes
Vinegar and then clean water
like the way you do things not too much explainnig how thing are done simple an easy ....i love trying different things..like your set up
Thank you for watching!!!
First time I made some shine I was 14 and my fr. Robert thought I was A. King went to school told some fr and my they freaked out wanting some and a couple of them parents were. Some high ups lol
this is an awesome video iv'
e never thought about priming during the distillation process. my only question is why did you not use better schnapps?
This was the only schnapps available around me
This is pretty interesting I made peach wine but I never brought it up to the Brandy stage I can just imagine how much all that copper cost you
I got it from a buddy pre Covid so it wasn’t too bad
I make alot wine. I want a still. I would left at 124 . Nice job.
I'm a home brewer I love to make wine and beer ..that said I would love nothing more than to distill one of my high abv meads I bet it would be heaven in a bottle! but it is not legal to have a still at home where I live I envy you, sir.

Get a still and run some likker bro!!!
champagne yeast produces more alcohol...and when I do my red currant wine it is important to sample the result five times a day... One might get used to it.
I like the softness and the end notes the bread yeast gives. Yeast is all about personal preference.
looks delicious. gonna try this one
You’ll be glad you did!!!
@@bigeaze5711 canned peaches are easier to come by here in western PA too. Why wait for fresh? canned ones taste great.
@@jasona.shaffer6348 honestly the canned have 10x the flavor of fresh, I’d use canned everytime over fresh peaches
@@bigeaze5711 probably more sugar too!
@@jasona.shaffer6348 a ton more
Very nice! I still smell peaches
That infuser is cool
As hale man!...I’ve seen shuas similar to that...I might have to go do some tinkering now lol
It works great. I developed a different model of infused that will be for sale soon on our website.
@@bigeaze5711 will check that out ...I didn’t realize this is the same gd peach brandy vid I commented on last week lol...I get to smokin and forget 😂
@@Mychannel-fw5mb it happens 🤷🏻♂️🤷🏻♂️🤣🤣
@@bigeaze5711 sho does 😂
thanks

100 % proof how can anyone drink it that strong in Europe that would be illegal or am I missing something? Very interesting video, I make home wine in England and fermented spirits as stills are not permitted..
We drink it at 100 proof all the time, I add it over ice and it drops the proof even more as the ice melts

Привет тебе из России, брат самогонщик! Мы тоже здесь гоним из разного сырья, из фруктов, пшеницы, ячменя, кукурузы, сахара, тростниковой мелассы.👍🤝
Don't know why or how I got here but like a proper Paddy, I stayed through the lock-in to the end.
You sir have just got a new subscriber. Keep it, and long may the potcheen keep flowing 🤗🥴😵☠️
I would use the lowest jar for backens
Where did you purchase your still from

I don’t heat my thumper and when it comes to heads hearts and tails, I don’t use % I cut based off smell, taste, and feel
Nice buddy
Thanks cornbread
Good shit man! So you don't have to stir when you add water to proof it down?
You can if you want
I want to try a peach jalapeno brandy i bet that would be mighty fine
My buddy john bentz makes a mango habanero that’s amazing
@@bigeaze5711 that would be good as well I had a pineapple honey jalapeño that was outstanding years ago
We missed big eaze
interesting stuff
Where can I get a still?
Awesome video Bro can’t wait to try the recipe was wondering would this recipe be the same with any other fruit or would it be a difference in quantity of fruit Thanks
Use any fruit with the same ratio
About to make my wash this weekend finally got all my supplies gathered up and bananas are super cheap right now. Think I’m gonna try it with them for the 1st run and peaches next. I had one more question about the water should the wash itself be made with distilled water or just to proof it down? Thanks again can’t wait to get this batch made 🍻
Couple of things 1 why not use yeast nutrients 2 use electric blanket and place the barrel on top of heating pad.
No need for yeast nutrients, there’s plenty of nutrients in the fruits for the yeast to thrive off of. I only use nutrients on sugar washes. But if you want to use yeast nutrients you can there’s nothing wrong with it.
