Re: Three enzyme situation?
cheap mills are a PITA but they can be made to work. hook up a drill or motor to it. get it rolling 3-500rpm. from off, add a cup of blender milled grain to get things started and add seed on top (not too much in case you got to clean it out.) apply power and keep feeding the grain! try adjusting o...

Re: Three enzyme situation?
you got to mill the grain. whole seed will just swell up and not give over any amount of starch. plus it will all float and the grain cap will never fall so a lot of the grain won't even get wet, before it rots in a few days. a roller mill if you can, an old blender if you can't get one. coarse cra...

Re: Three enzyme situation?
I have a question on grinding the grain. I want to try this method on a small scale. I purchased grains ( rye wheat barley ) at a cooking supply store. The husks are removed all there is is the seed. Do I need to break the seed smaller? They are very hard. I tried a small food processor and the seed...

Re: uncle jesse's simple sour mash method
I recently had the pleasure of reading this link and 2 things might help you: One member didn't replace or add any grain. He just added water and sugar. But he also tossed everything after 3 rounds. Another member would add his spent grain, from making beer, to UJSSM. I have no idea how many rounds ...

Re: H.R. 2903 is up to 83 co-sponsors...
Ultimately, I think that the reason none of them participated was because they knew that they would reap just as many rewards if they left us to fund it as they would by helping to fund it. Why spend the money if someone else is willing to, I guess. I cannot speak for them, but that is the feeling ...

I have been reading this thread for a couple of hours and I am curious as to the outcome of some of the processes people tried. This thread mixes quite a few threads together that are trying to do the same thing at different levels. Please continue.

Re: Nuclear Whiskey / Nuclear Rum and Spirits Rapid Ageing
I just finished reading this whole thread. A lot of information to digest. I have read pro's and reasonable con's. I also saw posts about different alternate processes. I just need to figure out what will be best for me. I do want to thank everyone for the views and recipes.
