cereal wash

It tastes bloody lovely mash. I've just put the first strip run on so really looking forward to seeing how it smells after a strip.
One quick question. Would a normal fermenter be ok to store the strip at 30%?

[Mash]

Yup for a short time. But glass or ss would be better.

Thank you. Second strip almost done. Smells and tastes awesome straight from the still

Hi guys.
So i got all the strip runs done which took a while! Collected till 20%
Then spirit runs
50ml thrown out
100ml heads 1
100ml heads 2
50ml heads 3
750ml definite keep
100ml possible
100ml possible
100ml possible
100ml smelling a little funky
left to air overnight
so far everything except heads 1&2 and the funky smelling one taste incredible. I am absolutely blown away by this and will be getting another wash on later.
going to cut back to 53% and stick on jd chips although its perfectly drinkable white.
now a question. How long om the jd chips?

[Mash]

Taste it every few day to start with and then less frequently. You cannot take oak out.

[Mash]

It's at 0. Almost done.

Had anyone else noticed that kale does seem to get REALLY dry if you let it go?

[Corps012588]

How's the wash going mash?

[Mash]

In the freezer for a couple of days. I am amazed how dry hot kale washes are finishing .850!

[Corps012588]

May have to try a kale wash

So any news on how your cereal wash turned out mash?

[Mash]

Its been a bonkers week so it is still in the freezer !! This is a good reminder to nip over to the freezer and invert it.

Well i look forward to hearing your opinion when its done.
ive had 1.5ltrs on jd chips at 60% since the 26th of last month
also got some clear stored at 60% .
tried a little of each cut to 40% and i actually laughed a little.
they are both completely sippable without mixer and are far and away the best ive ever made.
so glad i tried this wash and its now going to be my wash of choice.

We all seem to try a few and then settle upon a neutral wash that suits us!
And familiarity does seem to help quality.
Equally, the more that a person makes cuts, the better that they get at doing so.
These days, with my neutral wash of choice, the tasting is a second opinion, it is so formulaic that tasting, I often don't bother...
I know just where the numbered jars fit in the bigger picture.
This is not magic, for the most part it is rote.
And comes with experience/time I guess?
Sometimes, a new wash has to be tried, just to stop the boredom setting in!
