Hi all, looking for some advise here.
I only have a 2" pot and was interested in making some neutral for some experiments, gin & fruit mixes for schnapps for some variety.
I am expecting WBAB will give me better results than TPW in a pot?
Working in 25L ferments with a 50L keg boiler
I was thinking about stripping a bit slower than i would for a whisky and making a rough judgement call out the still to seperate feints and 'hearts' in seperate bulk containers.
Collect the stripped 'hearts' for a further spirit run, and re-running all the feints with the next wash until i had approx 30L of 'hearts' at 40%, then do a true slow spirit run on the pot.
Given i will likely do a third run through the still as either a gin mix or after mixing with fruit for clear spirit, i am hoping to have a fairly clean tasting spirit as an end product.
I am happy to be generally doing more runs and have no issues in making fine cuts on the spirit, i am more interested in quality over quantity, and im not expecting to complete my bubbler any time soon.
