I'm not the one to sort this but I'll give an idea to what I mean.

Fores, Heads, Hearts, Tails.
Dunder, Backset
LM, VM (I know they're both Types of still but what's the difference)
Penala
etc etc

I ask because I am now confused about Dunder and Backset.

It's as the forum states a suggestion.

Maybe there is some mileage maybe not.

It is a good idea. Especially as different terminology (sometimes very different) is used for the same item when fermenting different products. To make it even more confusing the same terminology is applied to different things.

Panela is an unrefined sugarcane juice sugar from Columbia SA SugarDaddy's family owns the sugar plantations in Columbia and he ships containers of sugar to customers as needed. he has a commercial link over on MD with recipes and lots of information on panela. He has posted video as well showing the process.... its cut by hand and manually produced.

Here is an educational link to his sugar shop:
