  • I've always wanted to try a whiskey smoker kit. I wanted to know if it was a gimmick. It looks really cool and seems like it would add some interesting flavor, but it also has a hint of party trick gimmick to it. Today let's find out.

    I visited a buddy's house last Aug for a fantasy football draft (ya, I know -- geek alert). While I was there, his wife made us some smoked old fashioned's and my gawd, they were delicious!!! I think there was a fault in my glass though -- it was emptying too quickly...

    Hey! random off topic question. I haven't run my still in about 6months do I need to run another sacrificial run or will regular cleaning do?

    • @StillnTheClear
      @StillnTheClear  Рік тому +1

      You will get different answers for this, but I will usually just give it a heavy rinse and go. Sometimes you may get a little bit of a blue tint at the beginning of the run, but it will clean up before you're through the heads. Is your still copper or stainless?

    These work well my friend, you can use them for multiple things.
    I'll teach you a trick of mine.
    If you're a fan of smoked grains you need to try smoking some distillate before a spirit run.
    We already ate with oak so don't use any of them.
    I like to use fruit wood then age on oak after the run.
    Gives you a decent layering effect 🍻

      @@StillnTheClear I like to use half gallon mason's depending on how much product your working with.
      Leave about three inches of headspace in your jar for the smoke.
      Shake it until the smoke impregnates your distillate.
      It'll have a light yellow tint to it but crystal clear.
      I like to run it in the thump instead of the pot.
      You'll get more tannins to carry over that way .
      I see you around in a bunch of FB groups we're both in.
      Good luck 🥃

    My question is if smoking meats, it’s suggested to wet the wood… why not the same for drinks? Gets more smoke right?

    • @Dan-zs3kz
      @Dan-zs3kz 6 місяців тому

      Stop doing that to your smoked meat. It only helps prevent them from catching. The reason some beginners do that, does not apply to this, your trying here to catch them on fire, then smother it
