It seems to have been put together with a "this is good let's add some" mentality.

Wrong! Less is more. 8)

Your sugar is very high. Listen to the Capn.

I have used Vegemite as a source of nutrition. It works fine with no residuals.

aiming to high on the ABV. I also aim at about 12%
gives me options on yeast.
It was the Marmite?? I know its yeast extract
but the smell and taste of the stuff is
overpowering, nice if you like it !!

If you're doing 100L washes, you probably have a decent capacity boiler, so can produce a fair quantity of booze with a couple of strips and a spirit run, even with a single digit ABV wash.
Pushing this high will produce lower quality spirit in my experience, and isn't really worth the addition return in volume.

Molasses 2.5kg
Di-Ammonium Phosphate 175g
Marmite 100g
Yeast - ICV K1116 35g
Fermaid K 25g
Yeast Hulls 25g
Magnesium Sulphate 25g
Baking Soda 25g
Tea 4 cups
With a 95% conversion efficiency, this much sugar will produce about 14.5 kg of ethanol which is about 18.5 litres.


Anyone tried anything like this???
Marmite (loveit-hate it).
this must leave a taste!!
