With my banana brandy, I use olive nations banana extract to boost the flavor and also add a tad bit of simple syrup to add a touch of sweetness. Works very well 👌
I was almost going to try that, but I read about the banana peel syrup thing and really wanted to try it. It's not as strong as extract, but it's pretty tasty.
I used 90f degree ish water to make peach mash. 5lb peaches smashed up with a 2x3 in bout gallon of water. Topped to 5 gallon, added 5lb sugar, handful of wheat malt for nutrients and flavor, let it kick off fermentation on its own. I may try it the same way with bananas
With a thicker mash, I'll loosen the media a bit and spin the hydrometer. This lets it keep moving until it finds a better equilibrium. You'll still have to go a few rounds and guess a bit but your range will be tighter. You can usually strain your test as well. If you have sanitized you can just dump it all right back in.
Never has distilling been more exciting. i started about 20 years ago, had been fermenting things at home before that was even law abiding lol and the reason i am jumping back into the sport and science is because of all the wonderful info that is out there. One thing i like about your site is you get into the flavoring afterwards which i like alot. I have ten gallons of wash fermenting violently lol, in a 13 gallon fermenter so enough head space and have been knocking the pancake down every other day. I just got some cacao nibs from olive nation and will have them ready once i'm done distilling. Although im going to separate my run, i'm not sure if i'm going to double distill yet since im using a reflux for this. ill report back in a week or so.
When I do any baking with bananas I freeze them first. I will thaw them, trim the ends then squeeze the peels to get all the flavor from them. Maybe it could work for you in creating spirits.
So cool that this video should come out now. Several weeks ago, on a long drive, my mind was wandering and I started thinking about using bananas to achieve starch conversion because of their obvious ability to take a green starchy banana to a sticky sweet pudding. Actually, I was thinking more along the lines of using bananas in a grain conversion, but this makes me want to (theoretically) try it even more.
Oh this is perfect. We have some brand new copper to season up and I've spent the last couple of days trying to decide what her first run is going to be. Thanks for the inspiration. ❤️
I'm looking forward to see what youns guys are up to. And your right copper stills are like cast iron cookware the more you use them the better they get. I started building a 12 gallon copper pot few months ago. It sits on the shed waiting to be finished
Chiming in once again. Since posting my comment last year, I purchased for my cheese making a sous vide and wouldn't you know that the sous vide is a game changer when it comes to making liqueurs. I use the SV to heat a water bath to about 150F and macerate any fruit or nuts or petals for 90 - 120 minutes sealed tightly in a mason jar. No more do I need to allow the flavoring material to sit in the alcohol for days or weeks.
i would also put the bananas in the oven at lowest setting say 170deg f preferably 140 if possible to further convert starch to sugar or i would also warm the mash up to 140 and hold for 1 hr to convert a substance in the banana called inulin into fructose , but aside from using the peels for the enzymes i read they do not have any aroma or possibly flavor to add
From the mind of Bearded!!! I like the idea of using the peels. Was there an upside to not using riper banana? I knew about the amylase but didn’t realize banana peels had a “good” banana flavor. Great stuff Bearded, as always! Glad Mrs. Bearded approved of your newest creation. Thanks, Brother!
Did cacao nibs, coffee/espresso, rum liquor - it was great!!! Now I need only to add some banana to this mix 😂. Thanks Bored!! Always good to see you & your "hypothetical" endeavours 😆.
Hmmm I got an idea id like ya to try. If you got the peels left. Chop them up. Mix them by weight with an equal weight of palm sugar or pure cane sugar. Let that sit until it is fully mascerated and use the strained concoction like molasses in a rum.
Super nice. I did a banana brandy recently, mixing banana spirit and macerated dried bananas. Divine! Cacao nibs is an excellent add. I'll through in a bit of vanilla extract next time. Cheers!
Definitely something I’ll try. Great job! I did check definition of “dirty banana” in urban dictionary. I’m thinking that was not really what you meant. 😂😂😂
Great to see more content! Rather than bruising, wouldn't it be easier to freeze your bananas for a week or purchase ripe fruit? What difference would it make? Cheers
@Agnar Áskelsson did you fallow this recipe or a different one? Jesse, at still it also did one in pretty sure he mentions it in this video that uses cooked banana and brown sugar I might like to try.
@@tobeyplaunty1321 1.2kg peeled banana, 1.2kg Demerara baked together until brown and sticky. Made 10 liters @ 1.057 OG. 11.5 gr. each of BRY-97 and S-04 yeast. Yeast nutrient at 1.020 but ended up dry. My fairy made lots of cuts and picked what she liked, sent my 750 ml of hearts diluted to 40%
A suggestion; a tiny amount of citrus zest to throw some brightness into the background. Often with heavy flavors like chocolate and banana, the dessert doesn't quite hit right, but if you add a tiny amount of citrus, it brings the other flavors out and makes them taste more real.
I usually let the bananas age a bit to the point it begins to soften a bit and become slightly spotty. Then slice them in pieces with the peel still attached, while tossing those pieces in a Ziploc bag to freeze for a day or 2. When ready to use in your wash use pectic enzymes. It's worth doing...
Ever since I heard of inverted sugar by you my bearded brother I've been doing it ever since and what a delicious difference I don't care if it's bananas or sour man what a difference thank you
got a small batch of banana wine going now 1.5 Lbs fully black banana's, peeled and frozen 1 Lbs brown sugar 1 Tsp lemon powder yeast nutrient and pectic enzyme (didn't measure, big pinch of each) 1 shelled beano (just in case there's still starch in the banana) heated in a pot with enough water to bring to 1/2 gallon, cooled, pitch yeast and airlock
Nice one :) I have been thinking of this a lot as well, if you can use the peels in the wash to benefit from the natural enzymes. So thanks for answering that for me :D
Great Idea with the peels. I did a banana/blackstrap forbidden lovechild to get a kind of a rum and it was great ( aged with pecan chips). Next time I'll add pectinase to reduce the head and foam ( waiting in my fridge)
I'd like to try this. So for a beginner, basicaly for a brandy you dont have 2 destilation runs? But one slow run with as many jars as possible to collect as much flavor as possible
Great video, you tied together the others really well and came up with something straight forward. I'm curious about how many pints of brandy did the fairy produce for you from those 7lbs of bananas?
Do you think I could use the enzyme in banana peels to convert starch in corn to sugar ? got some bananas growing in garden wondering if I could freeze and save up the peels when the kids finished with them and use them
I have no idea what the ratio of peels to weight of corn would need to be to convert all the starches., but now I'm curious. Let me know if you find out.
Hi Bearded, just made a batch of Beaver's Mielies Pap Moonshine. Awesome aromas, so I'm going to use your Cacau Liquor recipe for a 2L batch. Sooooo looking forward to it. Thanks for your amazing informative videos!
Awesome take on banana brandy. Did the nibs give you a dark chocolate or milk chocolate flavor? I've put them in strawberry wine and gotten dark chocolate, but added them to strawberry-blueberry wine and got milk chocolate
I challenge you to make Pelinkovac, I just failed so lets see what you think, mine is so bitter you can’t open your mouth, eyes or nose when you taste it.
Looks so good, My batch is fermenting.. (takes awhile) and look forward to flavoring some like you suggested. I'm curious why the peels only and not the banana when making the syrup. Great stuff. !
I hadn’t even considered the amylase in banana peels, but I’ll definitely be running some experiments now! Maybe a banana-“malted” grain for a beer, or for speeding up black fermented fruits and nuts! Another creator I follow first showed me the syrup that you made here; it’s originally a Korean technique, and the product is called cheong if you want to do some more digging. Great video!
Yeah, I think it amps it up during fermentation. But when I do it again, I think I'd leave them out of the thumper. Not sure I got anything from having them in there.
organic makes way more sense. Maybe an urban myth but they put some serious pesticides on the bananas to kill dangerous spiders that could possibly be imported. That aside, yes the peels :)
Hi buddy , what still did the fairy,s use ? had a m8 that bought me the copper dome for my t500 so have the dome and the column now so many options ......PS the room you need in the ferment is no joke i still have bananas on my bedroom celling lol i am guessing the dome is better for a brandy ?
Hey , good to see you fit and back on screen 👌I was wondering 🤔🤔: Are the sugar in the banana syrup capable of bottle carbonating. ? Thinking If I could use the syrup for carbonating some pear cider, so it gets a hint of banana taste 🍐🍐🍌
Oh definitely. I did some fermentability test to see if there was anything in the peels that would inhibit fermentation. Diluted banana syrup fermented perfectly with my yeast. Let me know how it turns out. Cool idea!
Weird question...when you made the banana syrup you used the the peels and sugar ...in the mashing process...could you hypothetically bruise the bananas and add the inverted sugar you made to the peels before pitching to get the same amylase action...or would the peels retain the amylase... wondering if it would increase the banana flavour level more as well
I realize you mentioned adding some of the heads for flavour and of course it does seem to get better once it ages a bit and plus you are flavouring it with the nibs and things afterwards. Do you use the rest of the head that you didn't add into the next run? Just wondering what to do with them. thanks, tom
Adding heads (from a fruit wash especially) to the next run makes the heads cut huge, so I only save tails for that. Heads go into the sanitizer/fire starter bucket:-)
Oh definitely, but I wanted to shy away from a rum character and focus more on the plain fruit. I think the next time I make it I'll do some fiddling with the type of sugar.
Hey Bearded, I was wondering deri g if I can use the freezer method for making the Banana "moonshine" hypothetically.... some how. What do you think? LilyMarlaina P.S. Kewl video!!❤

I've made Waragi and left the peels on the bananas. The banana smell and flavour really came through.

I just made a first time banana, pineapple, coconut rum. I used 25 lbs ripened, baked, and peeled bananas, molasses, pineapple chunks! It is fabulous!
I used 90f degree ish water to make peach mash. 5lb peaches smashed up with a 2x3 in bout gallon of water. Topped to 5 gallon, added 5lb sugar, handful of wheat malt for nutrients and flavor, let it kick off fermentation on its own. I may try it the same way with bananas

The intro got me laughing out loud hahaha. Nice video😀
Found out banana peels really are slippery. Almost busted my ass for a joke, LoL:-)
Good on you for the banana warning. Bananas have produced the craziest fermentation I've ever concocted. As always thanks for the stellar content
Yeah, BeaverDIY gave me the warning on that and I figured I should pass that on:-)
When I do any baking with bananas I freeze them first. I will thaw them, trim the ends then squeeze the peels to get all the flavor from them. Maybe it could work for you in creating spirits.

I could not find ripe bananas, but if you have time to let them ripen, it should be even better. This video was Mrs. Bored's idea;-)
Great stuff Bearded! 🙏👍
Love from Norway!
Thanks Thomas!
I drank my weight in dirty bananas the last time I was in Jamaica. Absolutely delicious.

Many thanks for the helpful hints. This will help me in my brews. Think about using dark brown sugar instead of white sugar.
Do it! The brown sugar version is closer to rum and is delicious:-)
Love the video.

Oh sure, but I was crunched for time;-)
LOL I just did my first banana mash yesterday :) Look forward what the fairy brings me :D

Better then expected actually. I cut it to be very smooth and the brown sugar gave it a very soft rumminess.

Love your content, gave me a few laughs too. Keep up the great work buddy 👍
Thanks brother!
Very cool video, thanks
Cool idea. I have had better luck with the nibs in wine making by lightly roasting them first. Really kicks up the aroma and flavor.
Wow, thanks for the tip! Didn't even think of that!!! Really wish I had now. Next time I'm toasting my nibs:-)
Totally going to try this! Always a good watch and learning experience. Thanks for all the hard, but fun work, you do.
Thanks Larry!
I cook my bananas and use brown sugar with 71b.
Good to see you Bearded. Great stuff man!!
Hey, thanks!
Have your ever thought of making a liquor “hypothetically” from root vegetables like Carrots or Purple Yams?
I did shochu with purple yams, but carrots...hmmm:-)
You can call it "Battered Banana Brandy". My heart broke watching what those bananas had to go through!
Nice one :) I have been thinking of this a lot as well, if you can use the peels in the wash to benefit from the natural enzymes. So thanks for answering that for me :D
Happy to help:-)

Great video! I have a similar 12 gallon bucket, but having trouble sealing it to use the air lock? Any advice? Thank you.
Mine is a vented bucket. No way to get a true seal. No idea if there is a gasket for this size.
Thanks. I’ve been looking but no luck.
The pectic enzyme will quell the cap with any fruit mashes
Thanks for the tip!
Great video, you tied together the others really well and came up with something straight forward. I'm curious about how many pints of brandy did the fairy produce for you from those 7lbs of bananas?
15 pounds of bananas, 7 pounds of sugar. Got about 4 pints at 74%....hypothetically.
Great job. Can you kindly let me know whether I can use the Banana Brandy for making port wine?
i wonder if you could oleo saccharum the peels with sugar to extract even more flavor.
Do you think I could use the enzyme in banana peels to convert starch in corn to sugar ?

Great video once again! Question. Do you need to cut up the peels? I thought you'd just put them in whole and just smash them haha
Cut them to release the enzymes faster;-)
I challenge you to make Pelinkovac, I just failed so lets see what you think, mine is so bitter you can’t open your mouth, eyes or nose when you taste it.
Great job Bearded! Looks too easy not to try this recipe. Going to the market now.

definitely going to try this!!!
Sounds tasty, going to give it a try
Definitely worth a try and has the bonus of making the garage smell amazing while it's fermenting:-)
@@BeardedBored never thought of fermenting with the peeling. Do you think it changed the taste?
Yeah, I think it amps it up during fermentation. But when I do it again, I think I'd leave them out of the thumper. Not sure I got anything from having them in there.
organic makes way more sense. Maybe an urban myth but they put some serious pesticides on the bananas to kill dangerous spiders that could possibly be imported. That aside, yes the peels :)
Yeah, I've seen picture of crazy spiders nestled in banana bunches. It was on the internet, so it's not a myth;-)
Love Your Video's. I was wondering if the amylase from the banana peals would convert other types of carbs, such as corn or oats? Anybody know?
Bro had me at bearded and bored lol
Papaya foams quite a bit as well!

Shoulda played some techno music while whacking them nanners😅 very entertaining🎉
Just got done with a batch of banana rum. It’s currently in a barrel.
Nice!
Maybe use a little pectic enzyme to help with clarity?
If you throw the cocoa nibs on a cookie sheet & toast in the oven before use you get more even better chocolate flavor.
Another commenter mention toasting them and I've been kicking myself for not even thinking of it, LoL:-)
I bet a brown sugar would have been a wonderful flavor addition instead of plain white sugar.
Oh definitely, but I wanted to shy away from a rum character and focus more on the plain fruit. I think the next time I make it I'll do some fiddling with the type of sugar.
