Honey Shine

Post by pps2112 »

I was wondering if anyone has tried this or a variation of this. It looks simple enough but would it need nutrients or are there enough in the honey? It can be found on Clawhammer's site.
Honey Whiskey Recipe
Ingredients:
1 gallon of honey
5 gallons of water
Super Start distillers yeast

Procedure:
Heat 2.5 gallons of water to 120° F and stir in 1 gallon of honey until completely dissolved.
Add honey water to 2.5 gallons of room temperature (70 degrees fahrenheit) - when combined, final temp should be 95 degrees).
Add 3 tablespoons of alltech "super start" distillers yeast (liquid temp should be roughly 95 degrees before adding)
Pour back and forth between two containers to aerate.

Transfer to a glass carboy, install air lock, and allow to ferment for 2 weeks (maintaining at least a 90 degree F liquid temp.)
After fermentation allow to settle for 5-7 days.
Siphon into a 5 or 10 gallon copper moonshine still and distill.
