- This super easy fast rum moonshine wash recipe really makes a pretty good rum. It was fun to make and super easy to distill with the still spirits AirStill Pro.
Making rum at home is something I think everyone needs to try, you can keep it simple. You can also get pretty wild.

Quick tip: if you are using molasses, you don't need nutrients. There's plenty of unfermentable sugars and nutrients in molasses for the yeast to feed on. Great video btw, just subscribed!
Thank you 🍻
Loving the content! 👏Next time pot still mode for the spirit run, but at least you removed the stainless steel and copper saddles from the column and had the P tip on 😉. Some medium toast oak chips or a spiral would do the trick, it won't need to be aged for too long due to the higher wood surface area for spirit contact, but taste regularly and age to preference 🍹
@@StillSpirits89 absolutely! Purple is four pot still... I'm definitely going to be trying some sort of oak or something 🍻
Great content Bradley, as always!
@@GrahamFrench247 thank you
It's easier to learn where heads and tails are when running neutral spirit, as in sugar wash. Heads have a prickly, spikey feeling on the tongue. Tails can taste a bit like wet cardboard, rubber, concrete dust. It is said that if you mix 10% backset into your stripping run product and leave for a week it'll improve the flavour on your spirit run. I have about 4l of it that's been sitting since Xmas, must get around to throwing it into the air still 😂. Thanks for the video
That's some good advice. Thank you very much 🍻
Nice one Brad. Cheers from Aussie 🦘🍻.
@@garrymcgaw4745 thank you 🍻🍻🍻
I use a similar process but with a 30ltr still. When I get the final product I put it on wood chips made from broken down rum barrels for a month and get an amazing tasting golden dark rum as a result. I’m on my third generation and it just keeps getting better and better.
That is too cool. I'm definitely going to try something like that here really soon. Thank you so much for watching 🍻🍻
Some tips as you continue down the home distillation rabbit hole (I'm 4 years in & still learning!):
Yeah, ya don't need conditioner in the spirit runs. No sugar left in boiler charge.
Put a wad of copper mesh in the bottom of your parrot. That way if you drop it in while it's empty, your alcometer won't bust.
For collecting cuts, I'd recommend 100-150 ml samples. Then when deciding on what's heads/hearts/tails, use a dropper or a SS straw to draw a sample, & then add water to get it as close to 40% as possible. Doesn't need to be perfect, but in the ballpark.
Some people (myself included) keep heads/tails & toss them into spirit run of same recipe.
The hardest thing to put in a jar is patience! (You'll see that repeated on HD site often). I'm not a fan of most white spirits, but your rum on oak will get better & better at 3, 6, 9, & 12 month marks!
Thank you very very much 🍻🍻
Going to give this a try. Love the Air Still, but haven't done much beyond simple flavoured vodkas so far. Except - it's great for dealing with bad batches of ale. Just sayin'...
I would agree doesn't necessarily have to be batched could just be old 🍻
@@PortlyGentleman Ohh thanks for the idea XD
Clicked on the video because of your EasyDens contraption in the thumbnail...where did you get that!?
Lol 🤣 305Brewingsolutions
What's the make and model of the gravity tester?
I've got a link to it and the video's description for Amazon and morebeer 🍻
Thanks I found it.. I share your videos with my 7 moonshine life groups
Very interesting Where did you get your stand for the Anton Par I've never seen one before? Cheers

1: you can use butter, coconut oil etc instead of paying for special foam clearing agents (the oil added at distillation stage)
2: you should have ran until the final product is closer to 20-30% final abv. You left so much flavour behind. I run until the strip is like 5% abv off the tip.
3: running above 40% is very dangerous. Don’t do that. Fire risk is a real thing. And also, you’re not improving the final spirit in any way.
4: more water dilution impacts final flavour. You shouldn’t need to dilute a stripping run if you collect enough in the first place.
5: with rum, if you go too far into the heads, it’s not a bad thing, a little longer aging and you’ll be pumped. Too far into tails and you might not be as happy
Thank you 💯🍻
Great advice. I did a stripping run last year and it has been sitting in a jar since then. Smells awesome now that it has sat for a year and will end up putting it into one of my next batches to bump the flavor and proof once I get at least 1 generation of backset going.
WHOA WHOA WHOA.......Stop the friggin bus! What the HELL was that gravity meter doohicky??????????
