While bourbon can only come from the specific county in Kentucky and use their limestone filtered water, coming close is awesome! I tried this with corn sugar and malted corn (I wrote the recipe down). I basically tossed the heads and stopped just into the tails. I aged it in a gallon jug with Jack Daniel's barrel chips, which I added extra char to. Left it for about 6 months. My thought process was this...at the Kentucky distillery they put the white dog right into the barrel...mine turned out real good, with only a tad too much tails. Love this hobby, just need more time, which we all struggle to find!

I don't plan on selling any of my bourbon commercially, so I'm not at all concerned with meeting the legal requirements to be able to call it 'Bourbon'. Thanks for the comment. P. S.

I will say I’ve learned the hard way that the yeast you use has an effect on taste as well. Used a single malt whiskey yeast and it left a burnt taste but the mash wasn’t burnt because we stirred the crap out of it and heated it slow. Use your yeast with the kit you send and it’s a sweet kick of a taste! Learning hurts at times! Lol

And you can reuse the left over corn grain up to 5 times because your not converting sugars from it your just getting flavor! add the full back set wash from still and adding 15 lb sugar 1 lb malted corn each time, add all the back set this will make for the perfect acidulated level for your yeast Make sure to top off with enough water to achieve your 10 to 12 gallon mash

Thank you for this great video. I have a few questions? Or will these questions be answered in the Kit? How long did you stir the oats before pouring into the fermenter? After you added the yeast, what do you do next? And How long do you wait? Again, you didn't address these in the video, but perhaps your assuming I'll get this information elsewhere? Also, what do you do with the product after it finishes fermenting? One last question? There are 2 oak staves. Are they intended to be used for the entire batch, or just for a couple jars like the ones you showed in the video. Sorry for all the questions. Thank you so much for your help.

Hey @StillInTheClear I really enjoy watching your videos. Great content! Apologies if its already been asked, but I was curious since the grains don't get converted here, could this also be done into a sour mash? I know with UJSSM the cracked corn isn't heated so I wasn't sure if that made a difference. Didn't know if that had ever been tried, and it seems like a lot of spent corn to toss if you don't have chickens.

Although I'm real new I've been doing it less than a year being truthful. What I have made and had folks try got great reviews even from my father-in-law which grew up In the Backwoods of Illinois said that I sure do have a knack for it now I'm not trying to toot my horn or nothing. I just feel that I ought to do something with this gift like you and a few other fellas that I see on here. My problem is is no matter how good I am at cooking shine I ain't no good at this social media thing I'm not even sure how to get started doing like you do
