  1. I dunno were not scientists. But when you have a jack Daniels can you taste the ethanol? nope. With our first batch we could, you could smell it too, it was drinkable but rough.

    This batch is smooth and has an almost fruity aroma.

    24 hrs before distillation we add a product called Turbo clear which removes gases and impurities from the wash. And yes, you have to monitor the temp during distillation constantly (between 55 and 60 degrees) I assume that this has more to do with quality than the final filtration but as I say, we're just beginners, Alan would be able to tell you haw it all works probably.

  2. Were putting another wash down tomorrow so we can age it, plus we've a few mates wanting some bourbon which seems to be the most popular.

    Alan, we add the correct water then filter it through a carbon filter but there is still a ethanol taste, if we filter it twice would that take the ethanol flavor out or is there some other filter process we could do as well as to smooth it out more?

  3. We watched 3 good movies in a row which is unusual for me as I'm quite fussy.

    The air up there, Stir of echoes and million dollar baby.

    Million dollar baby's ending was not what I expected and I found myself really feeling for Hillary Swanks character , after dragging herself out of her mundane pitiful existence with so much hard work and effort only to have it end that way really touched me.

  4. My opinion is he isn't making it up, if you read the books he alludes to allot of the thing that are going to happen long before they do, like John Snows parents.

    Nah he's definitely not making it up as he goes, it's just too complicated.

    The latest theory is Eddard's sister Lyanna and Rhaegar Targaryen are Jon parents, which if you read all the hints and tidbits seems deliciously likely.

    Which would make Jon heir to the Iron throne.
