I'm looking for some new sources of bulk molasses. Drums and totes. I've used international Molasses and Dutch Valley. Any other suggestions? I based in lower NY State.

Thanks

Jonathan

Try Zook Molasses in Honey Brook, PA. Zook Molasses

This is a supplier for feed molasses but they have un-sulphered bulk molasses without additives for other purposes. They have a sister company called Golden Barrel which is mostly retail but can also provide bulk molasses prepared for human consumption. Only a few hours from lower NY State.

In addition to the points that Manu makes, with some minimal calculations, if one knows the ABV in his boiler, and where his cuts will be made, one can have a final product ready for casking, bottling, or other post distillation procedures without having to resort to dilution with water. Dilution adds another step that requires control and can influence final taste and quality. It can also cause some fatty esters to precipitate out of the distillate. Having the right ABV out of the condenser takes this step out of the process and removes another opportunity for quality to differ from the desired goal.
