    Spent grains can also be used for a sugar head whisky, hypothetically. Collect spent grains in the freezer as you make your beers and when you have a nice collection, go for it. Hypothetically such a distillation is sitting on some charred oak and Jack Daniels chip’s waiting for Father Time to do his thing

    Since I brew-in-bag in an all-in-one, I set my malt pipe in a bucket, cover with a clean tea towel, and finish my brew day. I give the boiler a decent cleaning. Add 1kg water:2kg of sugar that has been in my crock pot with 1/8 tsp citric acid and 1 tsp of yeast nutrient since the night before when I collected my water. Put the malt pipe back in the boiler, fill with cold filtered water until I just cover the grain and set to 80°F. Pitch a slurry of yeast (typically a kveik) and wait a week. I then swap the lid and send the whole mash to the liquor fairy. The fairy is nice enough to do a stripping run and a spirit run for me. If you often brew the same beer like I do, collect a few stripping runs before requesting a spirit run. Great results; would recommend.

    I'm in a similar situation. I have about 18 gallons of 100% corn mash that has been sitting idle for about 3 months now. I'm not going to open it until I'm ready to run it. Glad to have you back I've been missing your presence on UA-cam.

    Hey, Bearded, I never ferment on grain but I routinely “sparge” my spent grains with hot sugar water and collect the runnings for distillation. Twice the volume, sugar is cheap, the low pH of the spent grains inverts the sugar, and I get twice the volume. Happy 4th!

    I have added chocolate malt to the mix. I like a little chocolate flavor in my whiskey. Corsair Dark Rye's use some chocolate malt in their mash bill. Chocolate oatmeal stout is delicious. Add some orange zest for fun.

  • @Ansis99

    Hi! Yes, grains in the wash make distillate more flavorful. Beer is best without grains... :) P.S. I do my beer long enough to get flavor/ conversion. All brewers do it 1 hour, but try like me for 2 hours and let temperature rise to +70C or more to get maximum flavor out :). Thanks for video! Cheers!

    Welcome back! We missed you. I hope your situation is doing better.
    Having said that, I love fermenting on-grain. Sparging the heck out of it or re-mashing can get a surprisingly high yield.
    Not long ago I had a normal corn/barley mash cooking and threw in a can of dark LME I had sitting around. Hypothetically that really stepped up the flavor.

    Keep them coming bro! You have really inspired me❤ you, and Jesse have really helped me alot. Just one thing that I struggle with. Is HEADS! I just dont know where to make the cut. Some heads smell sweet...I've did something like your 'grape nuts',. But with a highly fortified powdered cereal. It was an invert sugar wash, with that cereal. I have a Frankenstein pot still. Man, I just don't know where to make my cut from heads. Did a stripping run and collected about 40 ish mls of heads. I could smell that wasn't good. So kept collecting in a different jar. Smell better than the other. I cut off the still , and bottled what I collected. The rest is still sealed in the still. Low whines.🤬😞

    Glad to see a new video up, I've been missing your videos. This video reminds me of an idea I got from both you and Jessie combined. Jessie did a video where he suggested saving your sparge as strikewater for your next mash if you are worried about getting enough gravity. That made me think of your small beer video. I got thinking I'm going to try a mash, and make a small beer wort from the spent grain. Then, make another mash using the small beer wort as my strikewater, keep doing that indefinitely, to extract as much as possible, to use in my whiskey mash. I'm thinking of trying this soon, with an all barley off the grain fermentation. I think it may help hit gravity goals, minimize grain costs, and maximize consistency. Working on a large batch of nutral right now, but I think that experiment is up next for me. Thoughts?

    Hey Bearded, glad to see you back with new vid!
    Funny you bring up this topic: I was going to do a very similar experiment, but instead of using barley, use demerera (unprocessed brown sugar) as a sugarhead on top of the beer grains. If I had a "spare" barrel, might even consider putting the beer into the barrel (6 or so months from now) that the whiskey just came out of.
    Funny coinky-dink: my wife and I are heading out right now for our anniversary dinner!

    I’m currently reusing spent grain from a poitin mash by adding nuruk, a dried mold and yeast cake used to make Korean rice wine called Makgeoli. So far the nuruk has broken down the spent grain to the point of being able to sample a bit of the wine which has a very savory taste along with the sake/rice wine funk

      Dude the best corn whiskey I ever made had a sg of 1.030 lol it was just a throw away “I wonder what would happen if I didn’t bother grinding this cracked corn” situation. Horrific efficiency but flavor beyond all else before or after. Give it a shot, you might be surprised.

    • @happyhillbilly3466
      @happyhillbilly3466 Рік тому

      @@Jamison- i’ve made many batches without grinding my cracked corn. grinding adds about 10 points to the S. G. maybe a little less. cracked corn is somewhat easier to work with versus ground.

  • @Daniel-zq3wq
    @Daniel-zq3wq Рік тому

    Cool to see it the other way around. Maybe for the sake of wash gravity, it would be cool to top up that 1.040 with molasses to 1.070-1.080 and do a hybrid rum/whiskey thing. You probably have less issue hitting higher distillation proof with a thumper, but a higher wash abv would make a single pot run more viable :)

    first, I hope all is well in your life! second, glad to see another awesome video. I Have 2 spirits and 1 beer that is setting in my basement and because of shitty life stuff I too will not get to it for at least 2 months makes me sad... This video was also interesting because I have never thought about making a beer than making a whiskey "hypothetically" from the grain, but what I have thought about was, making a beer from the grain bill from a whiskey receipt that I have (actually the receipt is from stillit). When I open up the bucket after fermentation it smells super good and has an excellent taste, but not an expert in either of these hobbies so not sure how to make the beer, like what yeast, hops to use. suggestions? cheers
