defiantly takes a while for this stuff to settle. I collected about 5 gallons of clear, I'm hoping to get a few more gallons of clear but this might take a while.

well I decided to take the remainder of the rice and squeeze all the liquid out of it instead of letting it clear. I ran it last week , I charged the boiler with 5 gallons and the thumper with 2 and ended up with @ 2 - 1/2 quarts of the best tasting spirits I have ever tasted, wow!! I will defiantly be doing this one a lot more.

Well my separating the grain days may be over. I discovered I have an 8 gallon boiler that will fit inside the keg (top cut out) I mash in.the keg I mash in. So will soon try my home made Bain Marie without separating the grain.
