  • Varying Yields Across Different Washes

    Posted by lockmonkey on July 13, 2024 at 9:26 am

    Hello again 🙂

    I have notice that my first weetbix wash has a different spread of alcohol to my previous TPW. I get the same total if i was to calculate total @40% (relatively) but I had a higher ratio of the down to 60% and less of the 40%. Is this a known thing? and can washes change due to outside temp or something? am not complaining this is better as I store most at 60 till I want to make something. My only reasoning is its a better wash? :))

    Yeah mate, always get different yields from different washes. So many factors determine or influence a wash. Just go with whatever you get.

    Home distilling is cheap and you will get a better product than store bought stuff.
