I own a Clawhammer 8 gallon still and love it for distilling water . Emmett and Kyle have always responded to all my questions within a few days . Awesome customer service. Now I know why you have no distilling videos at clawhammer. I watch all of you guys. Your all great! Thank you all for great videos and knowledge .
What a fantastic collab, Jesse is such a nice guy! When I started brewing it was actually because distilling is illegal in Denmark. Now I'm in love with brewing beer, but I still have that itch to make my own spirits.
"We at clawhammer supply do no advocate making distilled alcohol at home because it is in fact illegal... but if you wanted to... this is how it's done." You glorious rebels.
Man I think this is your best video yet. I think im going to start growing my beard out because I'm convinced that is part of the mash bill at this point
Hello all thanks for your videos they're great!!! I'm curious what would happen if you used charred Red oak I have an abundance of it available in Southern Florida
It's an antiquated law that needs to be repealed. I've never heard of it being enforced though, other than when people are selling, cause the government wants their taxes. It's crazy that you can legally destill lots of things, essential oils, other chemicals, etc but as soon as ethanol is involved, it's illegal unless you fill out a government form, pay lots of money, keep meticulous notes, and buy/build a seperate building for it.
Thats a pasteurization temp at 147 f. The reason for this is to help your mash from becoming contaminated while it is fermenting. The bad bacteria dies at 140f and above and the good bacteria doesn't die till like 180f. You want to keep that good bacteria as it battles other bacteria to keep things clean. If you were to sterilize the mash at like 250f it would kill EVERYTHING. Then your mash is like an empty canvas at a paint store. I learned this when cultivating mushrooms. The most important thing is to not let your temp get above 160f and should be 145 - 150f to be safe.
I am new ro distilling. The heat was too much and I got a cloudy output. Should I distill again? Do I need to add more water before I start again? What should be the temperature of the water in my recycling bucket for cooling? In 3 mins to water become hot and I have to replace...please help
A cloudy output will usually come from one of 2 things: a puke or tails. A puke would be when foam forms inside your still and boils over into the distilate. If it's from tails then you have started to collect oils from whatever you are distilling. The good news is that both are fixed by re--distilling. In the case of tails though, watch that you don't pour those tails into your hearts when the hearts are done.
@@thm72 thank you so much. I will re distill. I use a recycling bucket to save water but it is a tiring process changing water to cool it down. I am thinking of hooking it to the tap...any other suggestions? The water in the bucket becomes hot nearly immediately
@@themusiccovenant Use multiple buckets & switch them out. Or freeze multiple gallon or half gallon jugs (apple juice from grocery store are thick walled & last a while) to cool your condenser water.
@@themusiccovenant I moved to hooking up to the tap, way better than a pump in a bucket. I do live in an area with no water bill though, and it does use a lot of water that way. the cooling is much more consistent though.
From grains I can source, matching the recipe, I could only work out a diastatic power of 20.8. Wheat Malt - 60 Litner, Pilsner Malt - 80 Litner and Flaked Corn - 0 Litner. Total Litner divided by weight of grain = 189.8/9.09kg = 20.8 diastatic power. I thought the minimum had to be 30 (aiming for 40) if not adding enzymes???
It is LEGAL to distill for personal consumption in Massachusetts. But ILLEGAL on the federal level. Same goes for Marijuana. Legal in Massachusetts to grow & buy. But ILLEGAL on the federal level.
There's a HUGE legal loophole. Forget a key under the mat and leave your equipment there and if he distilled, filmed and flew back home never planning to return he'd be good!... and since you have no knowledge of the plans, they broke in and created content, you're avoiding conspiracy and Lil baby charges. Just saying... try it, I'd subscribe.
I don't have to travel outside the USA to do some outlaw shit and give great tattoos but what i can't do is brew things like this then go buy guiness and drink it on camera and be afraid of breking the law breaking the law. lol I dropped out of high school and do drugs and i'm out of drugs unfortunately which is why i home brew and self sufficient and an American
So, to distill whiskey, I have to have a long beard, be chubby and wear off the wall shirts.. Well, I got the chubby part down, so all I have to do is grow a long beard, and buy some wacky shirts!
Awesome to work with you lads. This is a master class in yt production!
Love your channel, funny seeing you here :) did you get a clawhammer still? I've got one and it works great.
I guess I can make my own " distilled water" at home here in the good ol USA....😜😜
That's so awesome to see you guys in the same place!! Jesse has so much knowledge, glad to see him share it in combination with you guys!

"Distilling water" hmmmm.. okay.
With this new editing style it looks more like a tv show than a real life. Thanks for the dedication. Can't be easy.
It's not! They killed it

the lads went intercontinental! as a long time lurker and diy for lifer, this brings so much collab joy to ma hearrrt!
"We at clawhammer supply do no advocate making distilled alcohol at home because it is in fact illegal... but if you wanted to... this is how it's done."
You glorious rebels.
Loved the "but you can, in most states, distil your own water or essential oil" at the end.🤣🤣
I love it when NASCAR drivers get together
Awesome please keep doing this as it brings attention to the craft and maybe someday we can do it in this country !
Man I think this is your best video yet. I think im going to start growing my beard out because I'm convinced that is part of the mash bill at this point
I'm an Aussie home brewer and subbed to your channel after hearing about it on Still It. Love the content, would be keen for more cross overs!
love yor guys channel and thanks for the great entertainment
Cool Collab here! I have checked out Still it's content in the past and he has some really high quality content! Cheers!
"Land of the Free," actually means "Land of those who can pay." Great video!
I feel like Jesse and Emmet are long lost brothers
Happy Thanksgiving 🦃🍁
Great Collab.
Jessie the man 👈
Hello all thanks for your videos they're great!!!

No7 on the chalkboard, damn so true! :(
Yea buddy waiting on this one.

My Late Uncle in Italy distilled Grappa from grape pomace( crushings) for decades after he made wine. Perfectly legal in Italy.
Is the yeast used in the mash white star NGS Corn D123? Also how long did you ferment the mash?
Is that a seiko snk809? I had one of those and I wore it to commercial concrete placements for 2 years! What a tank!
verry nice lernt heaps thanks
At last! The brajs together

Bom dia, saúde 🍺🍺🍺 Bourbon é um tipo de Whisky???
So after the mash, did I miss it, no boil before pitching?
You can brew bourbon at home you just can't sell it.
Cam you use corn meal

What is pappy %ages for the MASH
Mmmmm….whiskey…🤤
No enzymes in the mash? Or are there enough enzymes in the barley?
Enzymes in the (malted) barley
Did you add yeast nutrient? Necessary for this type of mash?
You can, but not necessary? The grains have the nutrients to carry the yeast through to 1.000.
Was sugar used? If so how much?
Is the pilsner malt a barley?
Yes
What can you do with the mash without distilling it?
Make beer, which is actually what we’ve done for a future video

I'm just about do this and I'm here now because my math is pretty much the same as yours. It seems the enzymes were always going to be needed.
You can tell by the beards that this is a manly persuit
I know an internet buddy who has the ability to summon the Liquor Fairy...
One day... One day.... I'll do this from grain.
To all the AZ peeps out there home distilling of spirits is now legal for personal use. Just a nugget of info.
People do moonshine at home and if it’s for personal it’s legal no ?
Distilling alcohol at home in the US is not legal.
Federally illegal. Sort've legal in a few states.
@@wldtrky38 Yep. 100 gallons a year for a single person household. 200 if there's more than one over the age of 21
It is LEGAL to distill for personal consumption in Massachusetts. But ILLEGAL on the federal level.
Same goes for Marijuana. Legal in Massachusetts to grow & buy. But ILLEGAL on the federal level.
That’s beer
It's illegal to do it here in the UK as well 😉
I am CERTAIN I am not the first person to comment this, but: hearing Imperial units out of Jesse's mouth feels terribly wrong.
We know you guys distilled it.. just didn't film it 😂
> 😆🤣
The ATF was created for the same reasons the Gestapo was.

Why not just go to a distillery that has permits?
I wonder how much beard hair ended up in this bourbon...
lmmfao
I don't have to travel outside the USA to do some outlaw shit and give great tattoos but what i can't do is brew things like this then go buy guiness and drink it on camera and be afraid of breking the law breaking the law. lol I dropped out of high school and do drugs and i'm out of drugs unfortunately which is why i home brew and self sufficient and an American
CH, is that you?
