secondly I have few farmer friends with fruit stands and starting to get free day old fruit,peaches plums ect.
He's gonna put em in a 55 gl drum and ill pick em up twice a week, would the wild yeasts start on em by then even with an airtight lid? If so can i just throw in my distillers yeast on top of em in my mash or I want to use campden tablets to kill the wild yeast?/
Lastly, seen fruit mashes with caps formed and stirred once a day for aeration. Would It be better to use airlocks on my mash in say 5 gal buckets or 55 gal drum and still aerate it or let it sit with the airlock on??
or could i just let it cap over with no airlock and just aerate it with a mortar mixer once a day..
what temps in ferenheit would kill a mash made with superstart distilers yeast.?
I truly appreciate your guys help and don't mean to sound dumb with my questions but would like to ask you guys with experience...thanks for your time Paul
solar still,wild yeast with or against and airlock or not
