Muck pit
Revision as of 10:55, 17 October 2017 by Single Malt Yinzer (talk | contribs) (Added Dunder Pit part and Sour Mashing link.)
A vat or hole into which rum distillers put their dunder and other leftover items such as fruit, molasses and so on. A portion of this "muck" is put into the fermenter to aid in fermentation. Commonly and improperly referred to as a Dunder Pit.
Similar to Sour Mashing.
