How To Make Next Step Whiskey (safety Net)
Still It
@stillitAbout
Still it is all about chasing the craft of home distillation and making it a legitimate hobby. We discuss things like how to get into the hobby, recipes, techniques, safety procedures and controversial topics. Its not about any specific spirit. Vodka, whisky, whiskey, scotch, bourbon, gin, liqueur, rum and absinth I want to talk about it all. As long as its made with the intention of creating a high quality craft product. Science and geekery is definitely not off limits. In fact I think its something to be celebrated and embraced. So lets get stuck in and see where it can help the world of distilling! Most importantly Still It is about creating a platform to discuss ideas. Embracing a balance between open-minded optimism and skepticism. A place that celebrates new ideas but evaluates them based on fact and research.

Use hot or cold water as needed to achieve a pitching temp of 22c / 71f. Ferment for around 2 weeks until 3 hydrometer readings in a row show no change and register under 1.005. Perform 3 stripping runs collecting all low wines down to 10% coming off the spout. Perform a spirit run ideally with a power controller. Collect at "drip drip spirt". Collect cuts into individual jars. Once the run has finished make conservative cuts based on flavour and smell. Proof the spirit down to 55% ABV and age with roughly 7 medium-sized, well chared US white oak dominoes per 2.5-3 l of spirit. Optionally you can use second use oak. Age for at least one-month tasting occasionally. If it is getting too tannic remove half the wood and let sit for a while longer.
