Re: New to here
Nope... There is no place for turbo yeast in a grain mash, with or without additional sugar... Turbo yeast is engineered to be used with straight sugar washes because the product also contains more than enough chemical nutrients to feed the yeast throughout a rapid fermentation...wallyb23 wrote:heat 5 gal water to 170 degrees

As for your still, is it a simple pot still or a "World Class Home Distillation Apparatus" reflux column which isn't really all that great...??? Does it have cooling tubes passing through the column...???
Re: New to here
i got two things...
1. is the mash going to be ok to go with or should i restart it?
2. it has a cooling tube around the end and a inlet and outlet for a waster hose.
i hope i didnt screw the mash up.
