yes tater you are correct, we have all the beans cut, some chicken shit being spread on the land, so i have some free time right now to plan all this out and figure out what needs to be done. i just wanted to make 5 gallons or so and maybe put some is a wooden cask for aging. my great grandpa was pr...

well i definatly dont plan on making 5000 gal of shine' even if i was to sell it the market around here would make that impossible. i have around 25 pigs hence why i saved the corn from the last harvest. also, should i worry about weevils an such or just clean the corn good before mashing ?

by generations you mean taking some old corn out and adding new and so on? i've often wondered how that ended up after 2 or 3 mashes. I have a little over 1000 bushels of corn and a hammer mill so if i mess up the taking and adding then i can start over without much fuss.

greetings to you too as well rad, and thanks for the advice i believe i will try the 40l version. much appreciated

I'm looking for a simple corn likker recipe for a 50 gallon ferment. i have a simple keg pot still set up and want to make a few runs out of one ferment. thanks guys for any replies.
