I was having trouble with stuck mashes before I started using either sodium Nitrate or Campden tablets to blow of the Chlorine and chloramine from district water. I am using mains water, I should get it tested really. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pofarmer Posted August 7, 2023 Share Posted August 7, 2023 If you aren't treating it for Chlorines and Chorlamines at least, then you need to. At a minimum through a Campden tablet per 5 gallons in or 1/8 teaspoon of Ascorbic acid per 5 gallons. This is an excellent Reddit post on water.

needmorstuff Posted August 21, 2023 Author Share Posted August 21, 2023 i have repeated my process using the llalemand enzymes. from 100kg of wheat and 340litres total volume i got 300litres of wash. this fermented dry in 2 days stripped it and have 27.4 litres of pure alcohol (75 litres at 36% abv) meaning my 300l of wash was 9.1% abv. is it worth increasing wheat kg for increased yield? or are these numbers decent enough?
