was wondering if the corn meal should feel silky/slimmy and does it come out to be more than what i got out of it? and if anyone else had gotten something over 98proof

i ran the a little of the batch. it ran good and i got 111 proof out of it.

here is my pot still

1. is the mash going to be ok to go with or should i restart it?
2. it has a cooling tube around the end and a inlet and outlet for a waster hose.

i hope i didnt screw the mash up.

not sure of the name of it, but it kinda looks like the on in the forums top left corner

thank you. i am still not 100% on how it should taste. it is mostly corn and malt barley. the temp has been consistant in the 70's. i started it on sunday and am hoping the part gets here on friday or sat. but if not it might get here tuesday and i will run it through and see how it goes.

sounds good, thank you

i am making a recipie i got from a buddy of mine. and i have a 3gal single top. i got about 6 gal of mash going right now.

i made my mash on sunday it should be ready thursaday and i have to wait on a new part for my still. is there a time line to keep your mash? or is there a experation timeline on it? if you have anyhting to add to hel me that would be awesome.

i am new to this forum, hope to learn more than i know, witch is not the most. got a batch fermenting right now. hope it comes out nice.
