Off gassing isn't super important unless you are clarifying a grain mash that has a lot of particles in suspension. Beer in most cases your going to carbonate anyway. But off gassing wine is a very important step before bottling it improves the flavor. Your finished fermented wine will off gas its self over about a two week period with your airlock still keeping it safe, but only after you rack it off the trub so it doesn't pickup off flavors. #HappyDistilling

A cheap source of bentonite clay is unscented natural clay cat litter. If you put it in the blender for about a minute you can create an extremely fine powder which is a great fineing agent. Do not use used cat litter. Do not use your wife's good blender.

In regards of the pot still and making alcohol for the hand sanitizer. If you distilled it, then diluted it with water down to 40%/80 proof and then distilled it again. Wouldn't you get a higher result because the second distilling is cleaner and "easier for the still" to separate? I reckon it could be run at lower temperatures as well, in order to control the separation even more.
@karlosss1868
@karlosss1868 4 жыл бұрын
No... For the most part, the still merely seperates the alcohol from the water. Your suggestion however would produce a very slightly cleaner tasting alcohol (from double distilling) but alcohol per volume would remain the same.

My experience with using gelatine on sugar wash wasn't too great actually it made very little difference. Supposedly it is the lack of tannins that doesn't combine well with gelatine. People using gelatine to clear up mead had similar experiences. In my experience best way is kiselsol (SiO2) and chitosan, betonite also works but is slower and results are not as good. The biggest issue I have is finding chitosan to purchase.

Rum is made with molasses so solid particulates are not as big an issue as with other mashes. It is up to you. Flavor remains whether you clear or not. Only challenge in not clearing is the potential for some (very little) solids like yeast and by products burning on your element or in the bottom of the kettle. Probably not enough to worry about but still a chance George

George, second attempt at cooking Corn Mash this weekend without success, I followed all steps in your #8 Beginners Guide which was fairly basic. Where I may have screwed up is letting the Mash sit overnight to allow the temp to drop to 90 (or below) degrees adding Yeast at 88 degrees the following morning. My second mistake may have been mixing the Mash after adding Yeast with a drill motor/paint impeller attachment, any suggestions and what is the probability that the Yeast (BSG Fermax) is inactive ??

Thanks a lot George. That was amazing tip for me since I've no access to turbo cleaner in my country😔 I've got some questions. In case of degassing the wash, what's your opinion about using an air pomp. Like aquarium accessory to create Oxygen bubbles and degassing the CO2. Is it useful way?I'm little unsure about that idea cause I consider about leading Acetobacters in wine fermentation or any other useless subtracts on air adding on wash. My another question is, would you please give us some clues about using Campden tablets (potassium or sodium metabisulfite) in wine after fermentation to prevent Acetobacter? Since always, happy distillation🌹🥂

Now I use it for the first day and then stop. After the ferment is complete I turn the pump back on for 24 hrs. or so to degas. Works very well. A few more days to let the yeast settle and the wash is ready for the still. I can usually complete a wash in 7 - 10 days including clearing.

George, you are awesome! I am new to distilling (I am pondering on buing a still to transform some not so good wines that I have made into something better, life after life right?) But I wanted to share how I clear my wine (applicable to mash I guess). I do use kiesesol and chitosan but after 2 -3 days. I put my wine outside in winter or spring or in the fridge. So, in the low temperatures the clarifier forms a much compacter lees and reduces the lost of my wine or mash or wash.... just my 2 cents

Hi George, really enjoying your content. One question, using fining agents can you wash yeast and still use afterwards or do want to remove yeast the do a fining run? Cheers Steve

Do you still need to degas when using carboys "sealed" with an airlock?. I know that their will be some CO2 solved in the solution because the gas in the carboy is all CO2.

Well that’s 3 times I’ve watched and George doesn’t actually say which method he used on the first jar on the right, George’s left. If I’m just being dumb, please point out the exact time in the video he does so?

Craig Reynolds did you actually watch the video all the way through or just keep skipping hoping to find where he mentions it ?

Luke Josselyn , why do you automatically assume I skipped it? I have watched this video 3 times (note: WATCHED). If you know the answer, please point out the exact time in the video at which George states exactly what he did with the first jar on your right, George’s left?

Craig Reynolds I said it because if you had paid attention you would have known, especially after watching it 3 times. Sorry I didn't mean to cause offence with my comment. It's at 9 min, George says he shook that jar several times to degass it & that is all, he then moves on to explain what he did with the other 2 jars. As he explained a little earlier if you want to degass a larger fermenter you can use a whisk & whip it by hand (I wouldn't recommend that cos the smell is nasty like rotten eggs & you don't want to be that close to the gas when it's coming out of your wash (& it will also stir up your sediment quite a bit), or you can use a whip attached to a drill (which is what I use since I do 30L (7.9 gallon) washes). A whip is basically a long flexible plastic rod similar to the handle of a stirring paddle you can get at a home brew shop (with the paddle cut off) that when you attach it to a drill it spins & gets a slight curve in it & it helps expel the C02 without agitating the wash as much as if you were stirring it with a paddle. It can also be done by hand as well so don't think you need to use a drill to use a whip, I use a drill cos I usually do 8 washes at a time & it saves time for me.

Maybe I'm not understand something, but doesnt the wash come out clear when your finished fermenting? I degas by pouring it back and forth between a couple of buckets a few times. Ok lol I made the comment before I watched the entire vid I use the gravity method I do a mash then I use generations after so I dont put anything in the grains to pollute them. I get 2 benefits 1 amazing flavor profiles from each generation 2 I dont add yeast after the 1st generation I let the dormant yeast come back. I also get a fermintation well below 0 from generation 2 on

Question. when clearing your wash, part A & B, B being it sits 24hr's. Would it matter too much if I did it a few hrs early, Few being 6hr ? Just been invited away and want to cook it a bit early, I'm amusing Ill take the risk at burning it but most the sediment has sunk and looks ok so questing if their would be other risk involved ?
