July 4th has come and gone, but I’m going to brew up something for next summer, a red, white, and blue bourbon.
Thanks to Bedford Bob for the heirloom corns, I’ve got some Bloody Butcher, white, and Hopi Blue corn.
So far I’ve started malting some of the corn and it’s going well. 48 hrs in and I’m seeing lots of chittung and a bit of early sprouts.
My overall plan will be to mash the malts with some raw corn, barley, and some malted wheat. I’ve got a new Gibbs barrel that’s been just laying around waiting to be filled so here we go.
