rum using atificial rum extract

Post by partonken »

Ive been trying a few experiments lately on white rum and dark rum. Both have turned out fabulous!!

I use 40 % vodka(750 ml) , 1 tsp of artifical rum extract from skor cash and carry (Bradford Ontario) it costs$ 2.50 for 500 ml
This concoction tastes just as good as prestige Baccara white!! and ill make 100 bottles of 750 ml before i need to buy more.

Using 40% vodka, 750 ml, a small handfull of raisins, 2 tsp of artificial rum extract, 1 tsp of real vanilla, one used stick of white oak from a ujsm, and voila after 2 to 6 days you have a product that tastes identical to prestige dark rum or spiced rum, these two i find are the same recipe, same taste!

Ive just finishing a white rum on ice, and im quite impressed! the more i drink the more impressed i get!! or is it pissed?

Have you tried to make rum without essence?

I think that it's easier than making vodka. The wash usually ferments very fast without adding much to it. It takes off almost as easily as a UJSM. The cost is very low as a little bit of molasses will go a long way. And you'll enjoy it that much more knowing that you made it from scratch.

Hi asohosy! Do you have a recipe for that rum?

What is UJSM?

What other things can you use to macerate? in what amounts?

Thanks,

Alex

Look up in the Proven Recipe section and also on the main site for good easy recipee.
I do mine with 50 lbs raw sugar, 4Tbs DAP, 1 Tbs Epsom Salt, 25 Gal. water and about 1 1/2 once yeast. The stuff will ferment like there is no tomorrow. I have one going on now that I expect to fully ferment in 3 to 4 days. You don't have to but I like to double distill mine and finish with a 75% ABV product.

Uncle Jessy's Sour Mash it's in the recipee section.

I use almost the same recipe....you can also add a stick of cinnamon, several cloves, and a slice of pineapple. I have made several gallons from the worst kind of vodka...it is the only product I have made that I consider truly better than I can buy. I have also starting adding a handful of fruit glace...the type used in fruitcake. It just keeps getting better. Bootliquor
