Going to make my 2nd batch of plum slilvovitz, have collected just over half a 220lt drums worth.
I will let them ferment (rot) by themselves for bout 3 to 4 weeks b4 getting the paint stirrer and mashing them up (depit and stem at same time) b4 letting them sit for another 4 to 6 weeks, without stirring, just leaving it sit b4 distilling.
Just doing with without adding extra sugar to it, all natural with the wild yeasts.
1st batch turned out pretty good.
