    I tried Double Infusing Gin w/ LEMON & GINGER for INTENSE Flavor, and I top it off by macerating some Olive Nation Crystalized Ginger in the finished product.

    Just fyi… someone is using your last video to scam folks.
    The scam starts with someone claiming to be you by replying to your last video (contest) with a comment saying you won and asking to text a number. Upon texting they ask for your full name, address and indicated I would need to pay for shipping on the giveaway--assumed the next question is “what is your credit card number” so I cut it off there.

    I don't know if anyone mentioned it, Bearded, but anytime you pack your column blow into one end and see if any air comes out the other end. You never know if you pack it too full you might have a big boom when you start running the still! Great videos keep up the great work. Who knows you may make it as the next tee-shirt model!

    I just run Odin's in the air still.
    Follow his recipe but I use hand picked Rocky mountain juniper from my land.
    Macerate for a week
    Add the juniper and orange in a metal Tea strainer, suspended in the air above the liquid.
    Super easy

    Last couple weeks I've gotten into brewing soda, ever tried it?
    Best root beer ever!
    5lbs sugar, 5gal water, 2oz root beer flavoring and 1.5 teaspoons of yeast, bottle instantly and let sit 3-5 days in dark space 70-80f temp then chill and enjoy.
    I fill one plastic soda bottle, rest in flip topglass bottles, check the plastic bottle daily for pressure. Bottle bombs would be bad.
    :)
    Cheers bro!

      @@BeardedBored it's to easy and comes out awesome.
      At some point I'm thinking of trying to do hard rootbeer, same recipe but let it ferment dry then sweetener the yeast won't eat to flavor and priming sugar and bottle.
      4% abv I'm thinking and also being able to control the priming sugar so there is no worry of bottle bombs will be nice. Lol
      Half the enjoyment is how quick it's finished, warm day and might only need 12-24hrs fermenting....

    I purchased a kit for distilling essential oils (Vevor kit). I thought that might be an interesting endeavor. It should arrive tomorrow. I believe it will be ideal for making small batches of gin and am acquiring a boatload of botanicals to test the idea. I wouldn't normally suggest a product, but I think you might find it as interesting as I do.

    Have you ever tried making bread Vodka/wine? Where you ferment old bread then distill it.
    From the kind I seen it’s just a mix of what ever type of old bread they had at the time.

    Holy great idea Batman! I have a gin basket in my set up but I wonder if I could layer different flavors throughout the column? Might need to give this a go!
    Sometimes when I’m feeling lazy I will make a simple reliable wash but when I run it in the still I put the grains I want the flavor from in the pot and in the gin basket. Most people can’t tell I did mash the grains in the wash. BONUS you use a ton less grains to get near the same flavor by putting them in the gin basket!

    Dying to try the citrus-in-the-column gin once I can get to a truly neutral neutral spirit first. Still fighting with the sodium carbonate thing. Made my own from bicarb this last time. Better, but I can still taste it. maybe it's just my particular taste buds, but I get either sugarbowl or soap. Maybe I should switch to FFV or wheat, but I'm not big on giving up. that gin is calling me though.

    I'm going to be doing a part grain spirit. Going to be doing a very low temp, high fermentable mash, around 60° c for 75-90m and then boil for 10m to pasteurise and add in my 4kg of dried light malt extract and some dextrose monohydrate to dry it up a bit more as I will be distilling it and making gin. I have all the ingredients just not the time. 4.5kg gladfield distillers malt, 4kg dme and 1kg dextrose monohydrate, whirlfloc, dual fine, turbo 8 yeast, 20lt spring water. Probably won't be using all that though, there's alot of sugar in this recipe, the wash should be around 18% for the botanicals I have some kaffir lime, Chinese lemon and oriental grapefruit, gunpowder tea, Juniper, oris, angelica, caraway, meadowsweet, coriander seed, cardamom and star anise going to be attempting a gunpowder like gin as its my favourite. Also going to be making 16 bottles of gin and 2 bottles of just plain vodka for making espresso martinis and Moscow mules.

    Could you do a video on controlling a heating element in water using a PID -- and efficiency of SSR vs SCR?
    I have an 8KW Atmor tankless water heater that has two switched heating elements. I want to add stable electronic temperature control. But I can't find good information about the different options!
    Seems the PID + SSR MAY have longer switching time, and that MAY reduce heating element life from thermal cycling vs a higher speed SCR. But I am having trouble finding the real answer.

  • @glleon80517
    @glleon80517 Год назад

    Bearded, great info! It seems there are two camps: infusion and gin basket in the vapor path. I have only tried infusion with either lemons or oranges to make limoncello. With high proof spirits to maximize infusion you get a LOT of aroma and flavor. Haven’t tried ginger, yet. Once you strain out the solids, you have a high-proof tincture that you can use for bench trials. Cheers!
