I did an Irish Style whiskey and REALLY liked how it turned out: 40% malted barley (Golden Promise), 40% unmalted (flaked barley from Restaurant Store [U.S.A. franchise]), 10% toasted rolled oats (again Rest. Store), & 10% corn meal (Rest. Store) + Yellow Label Angel Yeast. Just 2x distilled, aged on some toasted oak spirals, and turned out VERY smooth like a Tullamore Dew. Even the sugarhead on the spent grains was delightful. It's almost gone & I really need to make some more!!!

I'm not going to argue with anyone about what tastes good or bad in spirits because I'm just not that experienced, although I guess when it comes to some foods many of us might agree a craft burger is way better than the big chain FF burgers. So with that said I'm here for the art of the craft. I'm a big DIY home improvement person and that work is done, now I'm turning my attention to the art of building spirits. Jessie's channel is the best on how learn to make proper cuts and I believe I've learned that's 90% of making good craft spirits.

I love your channel. I am a homebrewer for a few decades, and have made the turn into distilling for the last 10 years or so. Much of what I see on your channel are things I have learned the hard way, so it is great to see reinforcement of the alchemy that I have been through. I especially like your info on cuts, as this is the hardest thing to wrap my brain around. One thing I thought of when I saw this video was that you are milling grain with a power tool and a mill that (probably) has knurled faces on it. I just replaced my mill (after 25 years) with a Brewtech mill. It has larger rollers than the old one, and does a nice job of it. I found that I was producing way more flour than I should have, due to my impatience. I was milling too fast! It led to flow problems when we make beer. Now that we upgraded the mill, we are back to smooth runnings and still meet our efficiency numbers. Have you had to focus on a slow speed when milling with a drill motor to avoid making too much flour?

I did a series of 4 washes with a litre of back sets from previous stripping run going into the fermentation for the current fermentation (pH adjustment needed). I used feed grain barley for the unmalted barley. For the generalization I used a second pot half the volume of the mash tun. I found out that generalized barley is available as a horse feed - described as micro ionized. I used a T500 for the stripping, 2nd and 3rd distillations. I aged with French Oak dominoes for 100 days and am happy with the result. I expect that more oak aging would improve the result. Using 5% Rye or Oats in the fermentation might add some complexity.

A lot of the newer Irish distilleries are trying to change the rules on the single pot still mash bill to allow the use of higher amounts of other grains as it traditionaly was, such as rye, oats wheat and many are also using peated malts. Newer distilleries are generally double distilling too. Interesting times ahead for Irish whiskey.

@charliecarpenter2840 Жыл бұрын

A couple of observations coming from all grain beer making which might give you something to experiment with. Boiling the wort (wash) isn't just done to extract bittering compounds from the hops but to achieve a "hot Break" which coagulates proteins making them drop out of suspension and gives a clearer wort. Takes about 30mins boiling, the addition of irish moss helps this process. Ideally a "cold break" is then achieved by cooling the wort (wash) as quickly as possible. This drops out another set of proteins which cause beer to go cloudy when chilled. On my setup this is done with a homemade heat exchange, a long copper coil with flowing a water jacket, very similar to a condenser on a still. Not sure how much it would effect whiskey making or if the added effort would be worth it but it certainly results in far cleaner, tastier beer.

@markellis7961 Жыл бұрын

One thing to note, the reason your adding high wines to the wash in the next strip run, is to raise the ABV, and to help pull out more esters. So again when you do the 3rd run, don’t proof it down. Distil it at whatever you’ve got. 70-80%, again the higher ABV will help to pull out more esters. Also don’t disregard heads from batch to batch, because that’s where most of the esters are, keep adding it, eventually more and more esters will start showing up in the hearts. Basically it’s the same as chasing rum oils, just at the other end of the run.

Craft distiller here who is setting up my own commercial distillery in South America. I have made about 14 different Irish whiskeys. If you read up on the history of Irish whiskey the grain bills were wide and varied, a lot more so than scotch. The classic is malted barley at 50 % 40 % unmalted plus 10% wheat or Oats. I have made all sorts of variations with varying degrees of Oats and some rye. The best book on the topic is "A glass apart" by Fionnan OConnor. Its an excellent book on the History of whiskey in General and Irish whiskey in particular. On triple distilling the practice varied between double distilling and triple distilling however as you correctly noted with triple distilling they are effectively recycling the tails and getting more of those flavors into the final product. You can do that with a different technique in your second run and still come up with the same product. The other thing you could have mentioned if your going to barrel it Irish whiskey was almost always barrelled at 51%to 55% ethanol. Just because it gave the distiller a better understanding of the balance between wood and whiskey flavors as the whiskey ages.

For example, the first time you do a 2nd distillation, you're not going to have the heads and tails from a previous 2nd distillation.

Do you know of any 'normal' non standard distilled liqueurs like American Apple jack? Where apple jack is freeze distilled vs heat distilled. I would guess there would be a few european drinks that are made around that but it might be fun to do some playing around with those to compare a freeze distilled product vs heat distilled. I know with the freezing you don't have the option to make cuts so it leaves the methanol in.... but it also leaves more of the other flavors.

Good question. I would assume that there are other examples around the world as well. There are definitly "freeze distilled" beers. Like Ice Bock beer.

Might be a weird question but could you make a whiskey from malt extracts?

@kentaltobelli1840 Жыл бұрын

Yes, in fact I think he did one using LME?? It's more expensive but would definitely work, just make sure it's not "prehopped."

Jesse, I was trying to find an email address to email you, I have a question I hope that you can answer. I have the Chinese still that George from Barley and hops did a video on, it has the football shaped vapor chamber. For some reason after using it 4 times, i always get bad smelling. Wondering if I’m boiling too fast, even though my vapor temperature seems to be OK.

Sprinkling the yeast on top of your mash is actually the best way to add it, regardless of what the package says. If you're familiar with iStill at all, they offer a very extensive course in distilling and cover all aspects of it. One of their free video series is on yeast and after extensive testing they found this to be the best way because the yeast is hydrated slowly instead of all at once. When you stir it all in everything gets hydrated, this shocks the yeast and actually kills a lot of it, when introduced slowly such as by sprinkling on top it is able to hydrate slowly and gradually come back to life and start eating sugar, this leads to a bigger yeast colony faster, which will eat sugar and poop alcohol faster. Check them out, it's worth it just for the free info.

Hey there man. Been looking at your videos awhile now and was wondering, what is the problem if my homemade pot still starts to produce water. basically after the 4shots, its more water than anything else... I'm getting frustrated not getting the answer. All i want is to still some apricot brandy

1st thing that I thought, did your apricots ferment properly and is there alcohol going into the pot?

Ok I’m confused, I been running a pot still for a couple years and making great tasting liker from low abv mash 8-10% Doing a single run Why would I want to go thru all that process a second time for less liker and lose all that wonderful taste? I’m a bourbon drinker and love that sweet corn flavor

@604jroe 11 ай бұрын

That's interesting. I've heard others say that they don't get anything drinkable from the first run. I guess you could try double or triple distilling and see if you like the product you get better than what you get from your single run.
