All good, you oxygen thief!! :laughing-rolling: :laughing-rolling:
I'll jump in/drag over MacStill's Lemon Vodka recipe tweaked for oranges and a 63ltr wash.
Orange Vodka Ferment!
Recipe for a 63ltr orange vodka ferment. (wringing it's neck with excess sugar for higher yeild)
This seems to be perfectly scalable for litres of wash you're making
I used 8Kg (8ltr approx) of peeled oranges, I wanted a Kg & Ltr value to oranges vs a bucket value, blitzed in food processor in roughly 800gm batches and set aside. Dissolved 13kg (pushing it!) sugar in 12-13ltrs boiling water, then topped up with water straight out of the tap. Added 20gm DAP and 2 Vitamin B tablets. Poured slurry of oranges into a BIAB and mixed to aerate while rehydrating 38gm of EC-1118. I have a theory on the extra yeast! Mixed again for aeration and added yeast slurry, fingers crossed!
Blitzed oranges amount
Nice orange hue out of the gate!
Highest SG reading I've done! :laughing-rolling:
Best use of AGL Hi Vis vests I've come up with :D
Looking, smelling and tasting the goods already, we will see how it goes from here! :music-deathmetal:
No action in airlock after 4hrs.....woke up this morning and it's going off like a frog in a sock!
@Wellsy, you need to put a little extra yeast is to keep the spirit angels from stealing your shit! :laughing-rolling:
