Special Instructions

1.
4 cartons (4 x 675 ml) of Crosby's unsulphured molasses.
2.
1 kg of Demerara cane sugar.
3.
8 litres of water in the boiler. Add a 1/4 teaspoon of ascorbic acid.
4.
Bring the water up to near boiling. Add Demerara cane sugar. Stir vigorously.
5.
Warm the molasses in hot water to make a more fluid. Add to the boiler. Stir.
6.
Bring to a boil. Add 2 tsps of yeast nutrient, 1 tsp of DAP, a pinch of Mg.
7.
Take a sample of the mix and check pH. pH = 5.3 would be good.
8.
Cool the wash and check gravity.
9.
Pitch the EC1118 and ferment for 7 days or until final gravity is reached.
10.
Do a stripping run and collect about 1.4 litres of 60% distillate. Do a heads cut to remove acetone.
11.
Keep the backset from the first batch for making up the water for the next batch.
12.
Add enough dunder to the stripping run to cut ABV to 50%.
13.
Do the spirit run low and slow.
14.
Add medium toast American oak cubes and let sit for three months.
