Can These Master Distillers Make 100 Proof Moonshine By Eye Alone? | Moonshiners: Master Distiller

In the Christmas special three master distillers go head-to-head to make a 100 proof moonshine, but they can't use any instruments to measure the alcoholic contents of their drinks.
From season 3 episode 3.

Josh knows what he's doing.

[@FreePlayMode]

I'm surprised they actually got Mike to actually do one of these considering his static with Marc and Digger

[@slickstrings]

Thats how you know its all a scripted show. They seem pretty friendly on here where their actual personalities seem to show through. And yet on the show mike rubs everyone the wrong way. Scripted.

[@antmac6158]

Josh,richard,marc and digger are my favorites on this show.

[@brandonbell433]

Tim was the best of the whole series

[@TheTechChef420]

was that water in the bottle. or moonshine

[@nevezetesazonossag]

we'll never know

[@Need2KnowBasis.no-need-2-know]

Mark Roger's, Mark and Digger are the only ones that can do it by sight. Maybe Tickle is capable

[@ST-gh8zd]

Maybe 1 possibly 2. The other one is cooking alright

[@terrytahutu1343]

Tickle is fast Dam

What is that bridge?

[@CastBlastCamp]

When they shake the jar and the bubbles form whats called a bridge, basically a bridge of bubbles from one end of the air gap to the next end and the time/seconds it takes to settle back to no bubbles helps calculate the proof/ % . once the bridge is formed count each second it takes before the bridge is gone. it takes seconds for it to dissipate and each second equaling 10 proof you count back from 180 . So if it takes 8 seconds for the bubbles to dissipate youd minus 8=80 proof from 180 proof = 100 proof spirit.

Under a vacuum, the air pressure is reduced to nearly 0psi, making it much easier for liquids to vaporize... much like pressurizing a gas into a liquid, only in reverse

[@rasmus1600]

Temperature and pressure determine a liquids saturation. Take water for example, at atmospheric pressure (1bar) it boils(saturates) at 100 degree C. At a lower pressure it saturates at a lower temperature, on top of Mount Everest water saturates at 68 degree C. Higher pressure, like an industrial boiler at 200 bar, water saturates at 366 degree C, which sounds really weird but is explained on a Molliers diagram.

[@fredwilliams420]

@rasmus1600 that's cool and all: but it's also why I decided to use "under a vacuum" as my set variable... a change in either temperature, or pressure, is impossible under a perfect vacuum, solely because there're no molecules present to hold either: it's a constant, and one that's relatively reliable

[@user-fy2vr9zr6c]

So will taking the still to the top of the mountain

[@fredwilliams420]

@user-fy2vr9zr6c not quite like a vacuum... talking conditions that would have you explode under internal pressures... it's hard to breathe at high elevation, but I don't think you'll explode... to be safe though, Ima stay off the mountain! 🤣🤣🤣

[@sharksrcbash]

Tickle has gone from fun and funny to FAKE

[@amfam100]

Just out of curiosity (haven’t finished the video) what makes you say that?

[@sharksrcbash]

@@amfam100 I just think he used to be goofy and fun, but now he is trying to be professional and it just doesn't fit. Just my opinion.

[@ashleycooper6943]

These guys are legends

[@scb1829]

Or it could be he's just getting older 🤷

[@antmac6158]

Thats why tim stopped dealing wit him

[@okay2436]

Tripped out, thought it said 200 proof

[@jediknight1294]

Proof scale tops out at 200. Hence why everclear is 191.

[@okay2436]

I been shining for 1 year and I can do it so they DEFINITELY CAN

[@CTown-AL]

when i’m older i wanna make some any suggestions

[@randomlife718]

@@CTown-AL I was once ambitious like you. I found making wines and meads to more fun.
