I want to try a banana wash...then still it through the pot still.
Any chance of a recipe??? just to see if it's any different to what this guy does???
Not so much a recipe more of a method, basically your regular 5kg 23ltr sugar wash tweeked.
Whatever amount of bananas available usually 2kg-5kg thinly sliced (half with skin still on)
cover with boiling water and add sugar then leave over night then top up with water/boiling water until correct temp for the yeast to be used then add yeast and nutrient if required.
After a couple of days strain the fruit out then allow fermentation to finish.
Basically it's like a lazy nana wine recipe, it will take forever to clear without finings but if you are not in a rush..
hope this helps
