Should Sugar Head be included ?

Could be taken a step further, mash makes beer, must makes wine, honey makes mead, etc.

Nice, clear, brief entry though.

It sounds right, I was not familiar with the term Marc until clicking on it. I think Pomace is a more common term.

I do a sugarhead+ rumski where I use spent grains, some more fresh mashed grains + panella/molasses/sugar in varying quantities.

I also do a grappahead which is pomace + sugar...

I think it's all open to interpretation within some fairly loose definitions or approaches :)

Cheers!

The link above is still missing a reference to Must and Marc. Am I looking at the correct page? I used the link in the OP.
