Feed grade molly and brown sugar wash

Post by Shine0n »

I started today a wash that consists of the following
2 gallons feed grade molly
18 lbs dark brown sugar
1/2 cup rehydrated bakers yeast
Total volume is around 15 gallons


The hydrometer read 1.100 and from what I know that will be off a bit due to the unfermentables in the molly.

I loaded the molly and brown sugar in the fermenter then heated 6-7 gallon of h20. Once very hot not boiling I dumped into the fermenter and mixed thoroughly. Then I brought the water hose in and filled the rest with the jet setting. I feel that did the proper job with aerating, I then put some wash into a pot and slowly added the yeast stirring with a whisk untill no clumps were evident. It's still rehydrating as I type. I will add once it doubles in size

I'm hoping it will finish by next weekend so that I can use my time off to still.

Any comments are welcome good or bad
