Try and let us know 😉
@@tomaribicic7401 yeah who knew huh? 😆 I think this would be more akin to common/poor man's way of making alcohol, its exists in every country & the end product goes by different names depending on where you are located, and made using the most common ingredients available or can be acquired locally. I think this video is just an extension of that. Even though there's nothing wrong here, I do think it would be better to have more ingredients & essences but getting the combos right & timed is where the trickery lies... which is what is referred to as being part of a body to a drink... u know words like "tones of vanilla" or elderflower, etc. as expert drinkers would put it. Else its just wood soaked in 95% proof sprit, in which case one could use maple or many other wood varieties.
Good idea 😉👍🏼
😀😀
This is exactly why I used to love RUclips. Straight to the point and content with actual purpose. Thank you for keeping true to RUclips,brother!
Thanks Mike 👍🏼🥃
I totally agree. I'm always watching his stuff and it's amazing! My sausage making is getting much better too thanks to RUclips!
Thanks Tim 👍🏼🙂
Could have been a lot shorter
Yes 👍🏼 sure
Hello, I'll share my experience, maybe it's gonna help someone. I did not follow the instructions in full detail (I never seem to be able to do that when cooking or baking 😂), and it turned out good!
I used "barrique" oak chips used in my area to make wine. 65g for a total of 700 ml liquid. I slightly burnt a couple of bigger pieces with a lighter, the rest stayed as I bought it (already pre-toasted a little bit).
The whole process took me about 20 days, and I managed to do around 13 reps of putting it in & out of the freezer to make the wood work. In the end, it was not necessary, because it got a beautiful honey color in the very first day and during my continuous tasting, it also occurred to me that it already tasted quite oaky, so I removed 3/4 of the wood chips. Halfway through the process, I added a whole cinnamon stick, a pinch of nutmeg powder, and way more sugar than the video showed (I like my whiskey sweeter).
Every time I took it out of the freezer I made sure to leave the jar open for 10- 15 minutes to let the whiskey breathe and smoothen. It wasn't helping at all at first with the strong moonshine-y aftertaste, but it probably did something in the end as now I almost can't taste that at all.
The only problem was that I probably added too much sugar too soon. It made the whiskey cloudy and I had to spend additional time having it drip through some cotton to get rid of the cloudiness. The sweetness stayed, though.
I also lost a nonnegligible part of the liquid (~ 280 ml). I blame those wooden chips, they soaked up a solid amount, some was also lost during the straining and filtering, some evaporated I suppose, and well, some I just poured out for my little tastings along the way 😄
The final result: the "whiskey" has a beautiful golden red color very similar to Ballantine's. It smells like sweet oak with hints of cinnamon and tastes that way too. Very mild and pleasant finish.
Next time, I'd try to experiment with honey, vanilla, more charred wood, and perhaps some chips already pre-soaked in sherry.
It was definitely a fun thing to experiment with.
Dos: freezer, pre-charred chips, letting it breathe, cinnamon if you're into that
Don'ts: adding sugar before you're done with the whole process, tasting too much 😂
Thanks again 😉👍🏼🤪 I like to know the experience of other people. Keep us updated with the new experiment
Wow, thank you for the detail! I love knowing that the sugar adds cloudiness. I was also wondering about vanilla, because that is one of my favorite flavors in whiskey.
Keep us updated updated with your project
Bet those sweetened wood chips would be great in a smoker with some meat after your done with making the whiskey! Since they soaked up so much sweetened whiskey!
@DAYanez 😉👍🏼
I can't believe this works I keep it for 2 weeks and the test was freaking good ... Now I don't have to buy I can do my self 👍🔥🔥

As a fellow Italian when he says his wife will kill him I can say this is very true. :)
😂😂😂 as a wife I like your comment ..
wife always the boss in home . Agree ? ❤️❤️❤️😍😘

Happy wife... will save your life😁
Pay attention...or die🤣

I've done a similar technique with oak chips, but with chips from a homebrew supply store. My technique is to cover the chips with the grain alcohol (moonshine) without the water added and place in freezer overnight, remove in the morning and let set out. Each night place back in the freezer, each morning remove. Repeat each day for as long as you want to age. Then dilute with water to the strength you want.The high alcohol percentage prevents freezing of liquid but causes the wood to contract, and setting outside it expands. Each cycle mimics a full year as you've stated.
I do the same except I put it in the windowsill. This kinda simulates the seasons barrel aged whiskey might go threw
🤔 that makes sense👍
Wow! Amazing! Do not tell the Scots!!!
I do the same, except i bought the whiskey on the store
Thank you for the info!
This is legendary... I'm a Food Technology student... This fellow just did the simple and straightforward process of making Whiskey 💥💥💥💥💯💯💯❤️
😂👍🏼🤩 thanks 😉
🙏🙏🙏
Wow this guy replied at every comment. Love this kind of dedication among youtubers for their subscribers. You gain 1 more sub today. Beautiful video quality!
Thanks for your support 🥳🥃
Ive done this with wood chips and grain moonshine, 10 days to 2 weeks and each day i would open the jar to let it breath for about 15 mins. to vent off the volatiles and mimic the oxygen exchange of aging and it helps with smoothing out the flavors..
Spectacular ☺️ thanks for the advice
Can you use different wood chips like maple are cherry? Are can you mix the oak with pecans and cheery?
Yes but I never tried
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato still the same process no matter what types of wood you use right?
Exactly 👍🏼 check the comments. Some followers used different wood 😉
It would be great if you could do a blind taste test to see if people see the difference.
I was thinking to use Bamboo charcoal next time. tastes great.
Yes but know in Italy we are in lockdown 😭 I can’t do this experiment
I never tried it 🤔
Here's the deal. Using this method and this base spirit I am 100% sure I would taste out what it is. Been there, done that. Now. If you'd had a somewhat more malt-based distillate and not more than 70-80%vol (base spirit is REALLY important, BUT you don't have to go full-on chemist master distiller on it. It just has to be malt-based at least 60% malt and not too hight distilled), less wood, a semi-permeable lid (wood, cork, etc.) and leave it at least 7 months to sit. You'd be in the whiskey taste territory. You won't BELIEVE what that stuff is doing in that time. It changes from week to week. Drastically! And after 5 months it starts to chill out. So... After meh... let's say 1,5 years, it would be REALLY hard to taste out if it's a brand or not. At least 3y to be a whiskey is just commercial bullshit. Rules bent to the will of the industry to have a monopoly on the golden drank.
What would "seeing" a difference prove?
Really fascinating. As a Scotch whisky drinking Scot, I do like the idea of creating something unique and very individual. Thank you for sharing this video.
Thanks for your support 👍🏼🤩🥃
Hello there your ideas are great. I'm sipping my 3rd or 4th attempt. And I cannot believe it, this is really great. The heating and smoking of the wood can make such a difference. Thanks. 👍
Thanks for sharing your experience 🥃

At first i thought you were crazy, and although this isnt considered "whisky" in a traditional sense.. I love this creativity and your willingness to think outside the box! Great video.
Thanks ☺️ but it wasn’t my idea 😉 but I can tell you that it’s really spectacular technique
Thank you for another great presentation!
Our respects to your wife and family.
🤣👍🏼 thanks 😉 I will let they know
Andrea, you are my new HERO! I just discovered you today and I have watched 20 of your videos. Cheers from the mountains of Colorado, USA!
Thanks for your big support 🤩 please share the videos with your friends and family 😉
Howdy neighbor! 👋
Colorado or Italy?
I made a batch of this, using my own home made sugar vodka (70% ABV) and medium roasted American oak chips bought from ebay, that I charred slightly in a frying pan. Today was the first tasting after ageing and diluting to 40%, and I must say while the taste is not exactly like whisky, it is very enjoyable to drink! I think next time I should use more oak chips, because mine is lighter in colour than the one in the video, and I think could use a more smoky taste. Great video!
Spectacular 🥳👍🏼 thanks for sharing your experience 🥃 keep us updated with the next project
What % would the 450 ML of 96% and 300 Ml of water be?

I’m trying this recipe but I only found POST OAK smoking wood chips , anyone know if it works ? And the other question is, even though its written in the bag, 100%natural wood chips it has a warning label “ about exposure to chemical and wood dust” is that on all smoking wood chip brand’s? I’m probably drink the dust! Anyone read these in other brand? Thanks for your input

Thank you so much , I can t wait to try your recipe!!!

I just love everything with Italy and Italians. Having just had once the luxury of traveling to Italy, I know not much about Italy first hand but I have learned a lot by movies, books and now online. Did you notice his hand movement at 09:10? They do it when food or drink is made successfully!
Spectacular 😉👍🏼
To get a better flavor you should alternate putting the jar in the refrigerator and outside the refrigerator. What gives aged whiskey the oak flavor is the seasonal rotation from hot and cold weather that forces the pressure differential in the sealed barrel to change. Heat increases the pressure and forces the alcohol into the wood, where as the cold weather causes a vacuum and draws the oak tannins out of the wood and into the whiskey. Just soaking wood in alcohol will give you some weak oak tea, not a quality whiskey.
Thanks for the advice
@@Ryan-vr7xm One day in the fridge, one day out of the fridge. Would take two weeks to effectively get seven years of aging.
Interesting.Thank you.
@@MasterQuack14 nay,nay,nay..., overnight in the freezer then out in the morning and when it reaches ambient temperature you have duplicated one year of aging.
Now the calculations of how much wood chips you need per gallon of product is beyond my desire to figure out. It would require knowledge of the square inches of surface area inside a wood barrel and the volume that it holds and how deep the char is that's applied. That's where a math geek would have a hey-day. 😅
Thanks a lot for this knowledge. I will do it just like that.
Great job 👏 I have followed you’re recipe for the whiskey and absolutely loved it, I have since been using the Jack Daniels barrel chips! great dark color and taste just like old no.7
Spectacular 🥳 thanks for sharing your experience 👍🏼
Spectacular 🥳 thanks for sharing your experience 👍🏼
Great video!! I love how happy you get when things taste fantastic!!! I've been making whisky for years. Not that type, but It is a great idea what you did. For me, I like to make my own spirits. What I did notice is that the whisky in the bottle looked super clear, and did look delicious. Great channel!!🕶
Thanks ☺️ keep us updated with your experiments
Hi! I love your channel, and watch it frequently. Have you thought about using a little malt extract instead of sugar? It might make it taste more like real whiskey... Just a thought 😀
May be you are Right👍🏻
Thanks for the advice 👍🏼

I made similar whiskey(like) spirit using wood chips from used bourbon whiskey barrels, and an 80 proof spirit that was distilled 7 times. Turned out Smooth...real good sipping neat. Many bourbon and whiskey drinkers at the test table agreed.

I have made this several times and it is extraordinary. Friends (blind taste) have no idea it is "homemade".
Spectacular 🥳👍🏼🥃 thanks for sharing your experience
I use those oak chips from old chopped Jack Daniel barrels that you can buy in the bbq departement at the supermarket. They give a very nice result too. They don’t even need to be toasted anymore.
I did the same here
@@charlesroberts3910 Me too. JD chips are great.
So what's the process, is it the same if your using JD chips?
So what was the process you used
I was wondering the same thing! I make pens, chopsticks, etc out of whiskey barrel wood and it smells glorious when you saw it!!! I figured I could just yard some pieces of that in the jar and skip that whole soaking and roasting process. I'm honestly not a big whiskey drinker but this might be fun to try regardless. Other thing is I have an endless supply of whiskey barrel staves within 20min of me as the place that reconditions barrels for basically everyone in the country for brewing beer and whatever is two towns over!!
i admire people who's countries first language isn't english but they share their culture with us in english. this dude is slow but very precise. if you enjoy food and now whiskey listen up, this guy is smart. you may have to read between the lines at times. he does food but he's a chemist. i learn so much from this guy

As always a wonderful technique. I don't like smokey whiskey so didn't toast my firewood chips just cooked them, the result is seriously spectacular. Thank you. I have done blind tests with friends and it is always positive -- not copy of any known whiskey but very, very good.
Spectacular 👍🏼 thanks for sharing your experience with blind test 🤩
I am trying this! I have the exact same jar too, been looking for something to make in it.
I do have a rack of old grolsh bottles. The old man and I could try our hands at this 👍
Have you tried 😉 ?
Wonderful video. Thank you for sharing the information. I have been doing tests leaving chips and charcoal in. So far as predicted the charcoal is overpowering. It did however make the spirit super smooth.
Thanks for sharing your experience 👍🏼🥃
Another excellent video! I am totally hooked on your channel and really appreciate your time and effort 😀
Thanks my friend 🤗
Irish cream you got me really interrested, after this video you have a new friend in Québec city Canada!!! Well done brother, thanks for the knowledge!
Thanks for the support, for watching and sharing the video with friends and family 👍🏼
Usually at brewers shops you may find Oak chips with different level of toast. I use them for beer, whisky, moonshine and even for wine and meads.
I assume you do not wash those pre roasted chips?
Thanks for the information 👍🏼
@@Mr371312 when using on high alcohol dont need, but always filter cause they have some small pieces.
When on lower alcohol, just put them in oven, boiling water or even in high alcohol lliquid for some minutes, just to be sure.
Is there a major difference in taste between medium and heavy toast? because I also want to try it out and I'm a bit clueless which one's more favourable. If you know, thanks!
Better heavy 😉 for me
Wow...the video I've been looking for. Many thanks !!!
😉👍🏼 please share the video and let us know when you taste it
ooooh wow can it really be this easy? I have to try this thank you I discovered your channel looking for a homemade bailey's but then I saw this ! Thank you!
Spectacular 🥳 you can do both 😉 let us know when you taste it
Espetacular! O que eu estava precisando! Muito obrigado!
Gracias
i have other suggestion for you,,when you filter your whisky to put in the bottle you should use cotton ball in your funel,it takes longer but it comes out crystal clear ,no haze no nothing
Is it nice for Healthy?
@@akeipra i can not tell you 100% is completely safe because i am not 100% certain ,cotton balls may have been bleached and then sterilized ,this is all i know about them but they are widely used in medical and cosmetic field where they are in contact with skin or blood so i do not see why there should be any problem, i have been using them and they work great, you can give it a try with a small sample and see the difference, take a sample of your homemade whisky or alcohol and a sample of store bought whisky and put them both up to a light at certain angle you will see your whisky has haze but after passing through cotton balls is clear like store bought,its worth for you to do research for yourself
@@ARCSTREAMS thanks for hits! if that will clean liquids, i could use it against of BRITTA Filter ^^
@@akeipra britta is not so good and may take longer and very cumbersome and expensive headache to use,,, cotton ball much simpler cleaner and no waste
@A Ks hmm i dont think it will have the same filtration density as a cotton ball which is finer and can nicely plug up the funnel better ,easier to use and better results ,woven cotton cloth is not the same fine fibres as cotton ball
Hey, if i can get wood chips made from jack Daniel's barrels you think it will work well? And if it's working do i still soaking and washing the wood or should i do it differently?
Yes 👍🏼 they are ready ruclips.net/video/e-V89kLmDjs/видео.html
Great video ,i'm gonne try this but if i want a 40%alc ,do i just add more water ? Thank you for sharing this
👍🏼 exactly
My brother in-law does this but he chars the oak on the outdoor grill. It doesn't replace 4 years in a barrel, but it does produce a nice tasting drink.
Thanks for the advice 👍🏼 Have you watched this one? ruclips.net/video/e-V89kLmDjs/видео.html
very good technique. New to me. I have never tried the double treatment of wood chips in hot water and that definitely tastes raw and you can taste the tannins. Im going to soak in hot water. Rinse then grill as you describe. Its very logical and makes a lot of sense. Thank you for sharing.
😉👍🏼 let us know when you taste it 🥃
Translate tamil
I have made this several times, it really works and the taste is excellent!
Thanks for sharing this comment 🥳👍🏼🥃
God! I just tasted it, it's spectacular indeed! I followed your steps and a few from the comments here, (my only option was to cut fresh wood from a tree, dry it and tosted it) 2nd and 4rth day (only) I placed it in the fridge, all the other days in a room. I added the sugar, left it and now I tried it and it is amazing! Whiskey taste. Smoky, woody and too strong. The alcohol I used is greek tsipouro (strong distilled spirit containing 40-45% alcohol) without anise (it comes with and without anise). Spectacular! Thank you so much for the recipe and the tips from everyone in the comments! Awesome!

Flavors incorporate together oak and clear great idea....simple, like to learn of corn mead style aka from scratch....good video instructions again❤
It’s illegal homemade alcohol 😬 sorry
Wow doing a hot water soak on the wood to quickly season the wood is genius! I'm sure it will get rid of a lot of the harsh astringent and sappy flavours from the raw wood. I'll have to try this
Yes 👍🏼 it’s a good idea
I’ve done the same technique with cinnamon sticks. Taste like apple pie!

This method works very well. Next time I do it I will try adding the tablespoon of cane sugar. 👌🧐

Hy thanks for the video I would like to try as well,
Just one question : if I buy from Amazon the oak wood crispie do I need to wash them and to put in the Owen as you showed?
Many thanks in advance
Not if you buy the ones from jack Daniel
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato Thanks for your kind reply i buyed the crispy from weber and thei look nice, and also how much grams i should put from them? Many Many thanks in advance
What kind of alcohol are you using?
Usually 60 g per liter
I just finished my 'whisky' and had a few thoughts... I used oak chips not sticks like Andrea. When you're drying and toasting them in the oven, it is very easy to over toast them and then the taste of smoke is way too strong. Use more gap and a lot less time in the final toasting phase if you're using chips. With the brown sugar added and a little dilution with water and the remaining alcohol that I didn't soak, it helped tone it down.
After two weeks in the bottle, the smokiness tones down a little.
In a tasting with Laphroaig, Ardbeg, Talisker and Highland Park l, the whisky is harsher, but very similar to Talisker, and with a cube of ice and a dash of water, it is surprisingly good.....spec-tac-ular !! Fun to do and experiment with, I'm going to try it with neat, cheap, Vodka next.
Spectacular 🤩 thanks for sharing your experience 😉 let us with the vodka 🤪
Thanks for sharing your experience. I'm just in the making. As I forgot to buy alcohol, I'm using vodka. But I'll use alcohol for the next "batch". And you give hopes when you say it tastes like Talisker as I've been meaning to give it a try but I can't afford it right now.
That's it!! You nailed it!!! Need to get my hands on this alcohol/technique.. Whiskey all the way!!

Thank you for sharing your whiskey recipe, I found this video very interesting.
In no way does this qualify as whisky
Try and after you can say what it’s better 😉
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato Dude, I've tried sooo many of these experiments, custom-made "whiskey sticks", charcoal, "hyper aged" whiskey from big companies etc. And they all produce garbage results that in no way mirror an actual whiskey. The only way you could think this tastes like a good whiskey is if you don't drink good whiskey (also, this doesn't qualify as a whiskey). I spoke about it on the BBC recently.
ruclips.net/video/IkaIuPDsiZc/видео.html
@@JoshSPeters so what is it?
@@JesusPensiones It's a flavored spirit akin to a flavored vodka. If a brand made this and tried to sell it, it would likely be listed as a "specialty spirit". In no way, from beginning to end, would it be qualified as a whisky in any country.
The one possible exception would be India because inside India's borders they make a rum-like spirit they call whisky, BUT it cannot be exported out of India as whisky because it fails the definition of whisky by every single other country on the planet.
This isn't a whisky, plain and simple.
The guy's accent is adorable to listen to
😂 thanks 🥃
Ciao Andrea, I made your whiskey but I used my home made grappa instead of the 96'/, And it is amazing spectacular to be exact. I made it at three different proof levels, 90 , 80, and 70 unbelievable, friends and family loved it. I also made whiskey with maple chips using the same recipe, smooth sweet and spectacular. Thank you Andrea, in boca al lupo
Spectacular 🥳 homemade grappa 🤪 plus maple chips 🤩 thanks for sharing
Hi so glad u taught the recipe. How long do we have to dry the oak wood for the process
You need a dry wood at the beginning and after you should follow the video 😉👍🏼
Not really sure how this will actually age the whiskey making it smooth but I can see how it would make it taste like whiskey. Cool!
Yes 😉👍🏼 it’s strange but true
I was waitting for you to speak in your native language after the helicopter🙂 I did try your banana wine and it turned really good, even though I'm a scotch drinker...I'll surely try this one.

Thanks for the advice 👍🏼
Explain
@@alainabilow ruclips.net/video/YlQT4ptwLKs/видео.html does a good job of explaining it and showing how you do it, then there's also the whiskey tribe video ruclips.net/video/GA9vn9wrqVs/видео.html where they taste various runs and go into detail on the notes that it imparted
Wow, really simple and interesting recipe/way of making whiskey. Thanks
Thanks 😉 please share the video 🥳
I'm trying this right now. I love the color :)
But I didn't soak the wood in water first.... does it matter ?
And can I use the wood agen and agen ?
Thank you for a wonderful tip
You can use one time more like a show in this video ruclips.net/video/DNOkQ40vMjA/видео.html
If you're targeting 40% ABV, you can calculate the volume of water to add to the 96% alcohol.
If you want 750 mL, that would mean using 312.5 mL of alcohol @ 96% concentration, and the rest (437.5mL) would be water.
Depending on what alcohol you're using, the measurements will change, but you have a neat idea.
I wonder how it actually compares to a 10-year old whiskey...
If you replace the wood chips and do it for another 10-days, is it comparable to a 20-year?
Thanks 👍🏼 try first for 10 days 😉 I never tried double wood, I think it will be to strong taste
Bruh if Ima have to buy alcohol to make whiskey then why t.f should I not just buy whiskey
Tell me why not 😉
@@thatguyaron1154 go buy a 10 year old aged Bourbon , check the price... vs... this Everclear trick.
Stephen tell your brother Johnny to settle down -lol - the Italian is a scientist!
I have made something very similar using oak spirals used in home wine making - and it works very well. But I think if you are foraging for oak you need to avoid red oak and look for and use only white oak.
Indeed.
I'm sorry for what is probably a stupid question, but why avoid red oak?
Yes 👍🏼 Have you watched this one? ruclips.net/video/e-V89kLmDjs/видео.html
As an avid Whiskey enjoyer I loved watching this.
Thanks 🤩 if you try let us know 👍🏼😉🥃
Can I substitute the brown sugar for molasses?
I'm thinking more smokey flavour plus it's a main ingredient in brown sugar?
Also if I'm just adding the ethonal to the chips ,in and out of the freezer for 10 days as ppl have suggested, on the last day when adding the water and sugar... do I let it sit for another day with the chips before straining or strain straight away and bottle it??
Yes 👍🏼 you can
Good idea 😉follow the advice of the freezer
You can bottle it and use the wood one more time
Very nice! Definitely will try it but will do it something like 45 % alcohol content. 57 is too much for me. When it's ready I will try it with Pittina salamai (also from your channel)!For sure will be Spectacular ;)
I often drink homemade schnapps that is 86%
Ok 👍🏼 let us know 😉
Oh my God. That's outstanding. So I could make my own with(ever clear), available hear in New Hampshire, USA. Also I could harvest natural oak wood from the forest around me and a very special whiskey. This is genius. I can't thank you enough.
😉👍🏼 let us know when you taste it
Remember must be dry wood 🪵
Ok will do
😉👍🏼
Haha...I live in NH as well, surrounded by oaks...time to experiment
😉👍🏼 bravo
Straight to the point. Although the accent is funny! Thank you for the great content. Love from India! Keep it up. You just got another subscriber!
Thanks 🥳 sorry for my Italian accent 😬
good instructions, great setting for a video. im going to try this with the wood from a cherry tree in my backyard! i think ill burn the wood slightly after the oven though, cheers!
Keep us updated 👍🏼
Whisky making, aging and storage is an art.
It needs special care and patience to bring out a high quality Whisky.
Thank you for enlightening beginners how to do quick seasoning of Whisky using oak wood chips. 🪵
Yes 👍🏼 to make the real one is an art
you know its good when he winds up the "Spectacular"
🥳👍🏼😉 bravo
Definitely gonna try this... will also try and "improve" some cheap whiskey and see what happens
My mums partner did this 2 weeks ago. He used charred wood and vodka. Afterwards he added a dash of honey. I was so skeptical haha but it was actually really tasty. He left it just over a week i think.
Thanks for sharing your experience 👍🏼
Sooo did you try it?
Me too I want to know
My recipe is at first the same. But after adding the sugar, I remove the oak after 24 -48 hrs, then add one 1/2 real vanilla bean and a couple small pieces of pre soaked apple or cherry chips. Place inside a cabinet (no light) for another 3-6 days. The end result is very much like 12 year Oban Scotch and it won't cost you $110 bucks a bottle.
Spectacular 👍🏼 thanks for your advice 😉 and for sharing your recipe
I just discovered this video. What a neat idea for a little project. Am gonna try this.
Bravo 👍🏼 keep us updated and if you like it 😉 share some pictures on instagram with me
I would swap your ratios. Go with 450ml of water to 300ml of ethanol. That should give you somewhere around 40-45% abv which would be right around where most store bought whiskey is.
Thanks 👍🏼
0:29 guy is married to himself :D
😂 Thanks ☺️ I made a new one ruclips.net/video/e-V89kLmDjs/видео.html
This is a very good way to make the best whisky for people who does not know how the whisky tastes. Only cheapest whisky tastes oak which comes from the barrel. But good whisky has many aromas like caramel, citrus, orange, almond, spices, smoke and honey. And also finish differs from one to another.
😂👍🏼 yes 🤪
Hi!
I tried your tip about brown sugar. It works. But I have actually waited a few weeks before tasting it. My son came over from Germany to visit us over Christmas and brought Bushmill's whiskey with him. But when he tried my whiskey, he decided that mine is better. Unfortunately I have to give him some of it to take back!
By the way, someone suggested adding a few mms of glycerine to the whiskey to give it more body. What do you think about that?
Spectacular 🤩
I never tried with glycerin so I can’t help you 😩 sorry, if you try let us know 😉
@@Spectacular-cuoredicioccolato I tried it; it does give the whiskey some body, but some droplets do not dissolve, they float on the surface. Maybe I should just remove them.
Ok 👍🏼
I made it and it came out SPECTACULAR! Family and friends are very impressed! Thank you!
Spectacular 🥳 if you have send me some pictures on instagram
Your accent was pleasant to hear and thank you both for fantastic quick home idea.
Thanks 😉👍🏼🥃
Do we can re use the woods in similar process for succeeding batches. Warm thanks
One ☝🏽 time more
