In Ireland we call peat "Turf" alot of kids would go to the "Bog" in the summers with their parents and help out to bring it home (for personal use or to sell ) once it's been flipped stacked and dried
@@cleverusername9369all it needs is 2 years in a barrel and it would pass all bar the region lock rules. Scotch isn't particularly complicated to make, it's making GOOD whisky that's the challenge.
Ya I like watching the show I like 90 % of the guys but even the best solutions a person can forget I have always tried to contact them but no response I believe that cleaning a still is more important than how to make it
The only thing less likely than these guys actually doing anything illegal would be you making an actual contribution to any conversation you'll have in your entire life.
@@MrLeeLifts Man you're thick. I was partially agreeing with you (saying they're definitely not doing anything illegal) and making fun of you for saying the same thing that thousands of other people have said in the comments to these videos.
You can actually artificially age liquor with wood chips and any quick extraction method you want (but if you use hot extraction use an electric burner the idea is not to redistill it tho you could ferment and distill it with wood chips)
I'm saving up some money to go the USA. I just want to go to Appalachia. Don't wanna really see too much of big cities. I live in one and I'm so sick of this life! Can't even have a 100 lt still in my kitchen!! I use a 20lt that's filled to 15!!😬
Does anyone really believe that they all really wear overalls it has to b production clothes u can tell cause I've seen 5 of those guys with the same ones they all have the green zipper on top
ah yes, irish peat, that very scottish thing that scottish people dont use, we used to use scottish peat, but its illegal due to stripping natural resources
I usually watch moonshiners on sky Go. I haven't been able to lately as 2 weeks ago you missed uploading an episode (I saw that a new episode was being broadcast in the evening yet no episode following that was uploaded to sky Go on demand)! The next week I was happy to see an episode had been uploaded, apparently Mark and digger had a weevil infestation in their grain, yet when I went to watch the episode it was exactly the same episode uploaded before you missed an episode. So to conclude from 3 episodes only 2 have been added to in demand and those 2 are exactly the same episode even though the description and timescale mean they should be different. Is it discovery or sky UK who are the buffoons responsible for this farce?
What they made is whiskey. It can't be called Scotch unless it was distilled in Scotland. Then ain't nobody going to want to buy Scotch style whiskey that's not been aged. Especially for what these two knuckleheads charge. You can go buy a legal bottle of actual Scotch for the same money.
@@elmejorbarbero7695 You can make "Scotch Style Whiskey" but you can't call it "Scotch" unless it was made in Scotland. That's not a myth bud. It's the same way for Champagne which can legally only be made in the French town of Champagne.
Your not making Scotch, Scotch has to be distilled and matured in Scotland using Scottish ingredients, you're making Whisky or Whiskey chaps. Good job though, you guys are hilarious 😂 👍
@@518goeshard420 no it doesn't. Scotch is whiskey distilled and bottled in Scotland. If one or both of those processes are not done in Scotland, it legally is not scotch.
These guys are one nephew away from flying a plane into a barn and I love it.
Took the words right outa my mouth
Me too.
What I like about Mark and Digger is that they're best friends and get to hang out everyday.
Which makes watching them do their thing very enjoyable…
V wholesome
they'd make the best uncles you could ask for, quality people, funnier than hell
Me to they are living the dream
They are actors.
I wish they’d give these boys their own show, it doesn’t even have to be about moonshine just turn the camera on and follow them around lol
I love these two they have love and respect for what they do and they've hung out with legends of their craft not just mark and digger but like Tim and tickle and others
AMEN TO THAT
Mark never thought id ever see the day we'd be making scotch digger but yet here we are
In Ireland we call peat "Turf" alot of kids would go to the "Bog" in the summers with their parents and help out to bring it home (for personal use or to sell ) once it's been flipped stacked and dried

They smoked popcorn to make moonshine too
BUILDING A SMOKER OUT OF GALVANISED METAL LOL
Well you arnt eating it, any zinc oxide would likely come out in the heads
What's the catch with that ? I have no idea just curious
@@aaronmurphy4030 The zinc in the galvanized coating is toxic when heated. Not throw up toxic neither. It's 6 feet under the grass, toxic.
This is the comment I was looking for.
@@garygsp3 Yeah, whenever welding galvanized, we would have to stop from time to time and drink milk. The calcium helps reduce buildup of zinc.
Always love to see these episodes
@4:12 "dry as a popcurn furt"
Nice video
They use Scottish peat to make scotch. Irish peat makes Irish whiskey - a message to the shallow end.......:>)
I wish they would show them pitching the heads!
Where do y'all got the grinder to grind the grain up
THEIR VOICES SHOULD BE ON AUDIO BOOKS
Need a lot more of Richard!
How about no.
@@Invictus13666 we will 😂😂😂
mark and digger make more money making liquor than The Hoffmans make on gold
U need to spray the grain with water before U smoke it... Helps the smoke stick and not over heat

Has a master distillers ever going to competition with two distillers on a Steel
4:11 As dry as a popcorn fart 🤣🤣😭😭 Rest In Likker Popcorn 🥲💜🕴🏼🤞🏻
I like the paint job. Just look at that garbage can. What is the reason for the camouflage anyway😅
What garbage can? I couldn't see it. I thought that was a bunch of foliage? Am i missing something?😐
Hey Det Robertson that is harassment!
Discovery Uk is late to the party once again. Another older clip as a new, new 1
I'm pretty sure it's intentional. So that these guys can't get caught
@@seanjuth It's all legal, all these guys have licenses. They script it to look illegal so it's more entertaining.
This is several years old Digger a couple years ago got arrested and capped himself in the head rather then go to prison He committed suicide
@@larryhullinger4141 That absolutely did not happen. He's still alive.
You can't call it scotch unless it's made in Scotland
Oops…Scotch is not fermented and distilled on the grain
Does anyone really believe that they all really wear overalls it has to b production clothes u can tell cause I've seen 5 of those guys with the same ones they all have the green zipper on top
I wear overhauls.
50 lbs for 1 gallon. That's an expensive test
Damn a little less than a gallon. By time u age. And the trouble to do it and materials. That's a thousand dollars a gallon
I love nothing is done quickly. Even the scooping, walking and talking
ah yes, irish peat, that very scottish thing that scottish people dont use, we used to use scottish peat, but its illegal due to stripping natural resources
Smoke Irish peat to make scotch 🤦🏻♂️
better to smoke michigan weed.
Instead of using mason jars if you could get some liquor bottles and put a fancy label on it the popo won't know the difference
🍻
These were all "extra" from a vent pipe and a dog feeder........yea........and I was born yesterday.
Its a good thing they spray painted that half ass camo in that garbage can. That realy made it seem realistic. 😐

You may be making whisky but your not making Scotch.
Why does it have to be copper
Soaks up some undesirable things while distilling
copper removes sulfides aside from being deadly toxic if inhaled hydrogen sulfide will make liquor taste and smell like rotten eggs
Isn't that zinc coated or galvanized...I sure hope not. And if it is I hope no one watching tries it
50lb of corn for less that a gallon
You don't call Murican redneck manufactured whiskey Scotch!
Scotch comes from Scotland.
Normally called turf ha
cute

@@MrLeeLifts you do know they’re legal distillers, right?

@@MrLeeLifts so why do you watch? Is it simply so you can get angry?
too bad peat smoking grain doesn't make it scotch.
Actually it kinda does, soak the barely, Germinate, then dry. Smoking it is drying it.
@@518goeshard420 no it doesn't. Scotch is whiskey distilled and bottled in Scotland. If one or both of those processes are not done in Scotland, it legally is not scotch.
@@518goeshard420 and not all Scotch Whisky is peated.
A whisky cannot be called Scotch unless it is entirely produced and bottled in Scotland. So its a Kentch.
