cheap wash for making clean base spirit (vodka, gin). Can use backset for making next batch; just add ingredients to backset after distilling prior wash, add cool water to top off 6 gallon carboy, chilling to 90F before adding yeast (or dumping back on trub). substitute 2 packs of baker's yeast instead of turbo yeast, but expect an extra 7 days to finish fermenting, minimum of 14-21 days. Add a nutrient if it stalls or won't start after a couple days.
