Couldnt find anything on Baopals, but did on both Taobao and Amazon. Amazon would ship to the UK for you but i bet you could find it locally anyway.

Will see what i can find for you. Dont have my own computer at the mo, but going to the States at the end of this month and will buy one there. Cheaper than in China and understand English.

Have some iodine handy if you follow through on this. For testing.

That boapals site looks like a good 'un. However I can only see they deliver to China

If the pH is between 5 & 6 beta amylase is 60-65c alpha 60-70c.

Typical mash temps for ale washes (to make the brown stuff) are 66 or 67 as a compromise.

Beer for stillin alcohol is less of a compromise.

So lower numbers = more alcohol less sweetness in the beer.

Higher numbers = more sweetness (flavour) and less alcohol in the beer.

Beer and whiskey production are different, listen to Robert I reckon he has done it before

It was certainly on the bay, possibly USA import.
It is used and gone now so can't check the package.
Beta should work too.
I'm sure Mash will correct me, but Alpha 65.5°C
Beta 55°C are the ideal mashing temps.

I did a frozen sweetcorn wash a couple of years ago.
Smashed it up, added Amylase.
Brewed up buckets of sunshine.
Didn't taste bad, but wasn't whisky, so went back to Barley.

cracked or kibbled, they are the same thing when
you look to order. Try UJSSM or something like it.
I had a good success earlier in the year running
9 generations and ended up with about 3 gallons of
the stuff. Its all aging on French oak now and
will bottle some in a couple of months or so,
depending on taste.
