Hello Williehrdale,
I didn't carry the idea forward, the shipping costs made the amphorae too expensive for the minimal gain that people said you are able to achieve. If you are thinking of using them, please let me know how you get on.
Are vacuum pumps used in distilleries for transfering spirits into pressure rated vessels via filters? What would be the pros and cons of such a system?
Straight molasses rum fermentations BUT sodium matabisulphite accidentally used instead of DAP at 0.5mg/litre. A wretched smell in the early stages of fermentation but it cleared towards the end and the wash has attenuate well.
Apart from being particularly clean ferments 🥴 Are they salvageable?
I am a start up distillery aiming to produce aged rum and apple brandy.
I will need to sell a percentage of the production straight off the still prior to barreling and maturation in my warehouse. To ensure sufficient cash flow for the first two years of operation. I would like advice on the accepted way of pricing this type of transaction.
@Silk City Distillers I have seen from my searches that you are well versed in de-colourising with carbon. All the extra processes worry me a bit, being a newbie. I am coming round to accepting the fact that that may be how I have to get a good saleable clear product though. I will appreciate any help available in getting it right, from the outset.
I am definitely planning to acquire a small set as you quite rightly suggest.
I have seen some literature that says high and low wines are 2 cuts into the tails and some suggesting high wines are heads and low wines are tails. Are you able to answer that one for me?
