    Have you tried any of these recipes? If so how did they turn out?

      O Jesse, thanks for your vids. I can now also say that I'm a learner stiller, got my 3" 4 bubble plate still on Monday, so I will test out all your recopies. Thank you for your passion to the process of stilling, keep it up.

      I did your next step bourbon and put it in a badmo medium toast char 2 barrel in November. Tried it last month at 5 months old. Smelled like Tequila and tasted grassy with a big hit of malt on the finish. The malt was the only thing enjoyable for me, so I'm hoping it gets a lot better with more age!

    • @timberghuis7206
      @timberghuis7206 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I made the safety net bourbon a few times, even got your staves to put it in! Hands down, best thing to come out of my still! it would be awesome to see a sour mash version!

    • @trousers2
      @trousers2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Tried the Rye bourbon, came out ok but not a fan of rye so dunno why I tried that haha. Currently doing a stripping run for bourbon with supernova malt and I've got high hopes. Also got some chase the craft staves ready to go in as well!

    The distiller at Jack Daniels told me back in '99 that the best years for the whiskeys are when the temperatures are extreme in either direction extremely hot and then extremely cold winters because the wood soaks up and then squeezes out the whiskey.

    • @Tater_Lord
      @Tater_Lord ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Yup accelerates the aging process

    Hey Jesse! I simply wanted to thank you because you showed your viewers how "easy" distilling can be. I made it a job out of it because of your channel :)
    On the thinness of the whisky, I've been able to have a thicker mouthfeel when digging a little deeper in the tails (it'll take a little longer in the barrel, but definitely worth it).

    We fill in minimum 15 gallon barrels. Our 5 is simply our all grain moonshine
    Dispenser.
    A 15 of rum
    15 smoked shine
    30 smoked bourbon. Only 6 months in, needs way more time

  • @LP23D6
    @LP23D6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Badmo works great. I tip the barrels on the metal end (wood end up) and open the spigot to "burp" it. Then it will pour easily. Give it a try.

  • @racerothery2716

    Well after 2 + years of watching you im finally starting up my own thing and already for my first 2 projects I did a honey fermented bourbon mash and as a bonus had 15lbs of honey left to make some Mead! Thanks for the inspiration brother

    4 things Br Jesse, 1 great job, 2 don't turn wifey into a lush, 3 when you empty ❤ child pls consider changing out for a metal tap, and 4 listening to Daniel (Crowded Barrel) makes me wonder something, seasons cause the barrel to basically breath, allowing the liquid to be absorbed and expelled in cycles. When using staves, once the stave is saturated, are u still getting the interaction u want? Something to ponder. Luv u Br, keep it up.

    Hi Jesse, thanks for the update! I really enjoy the flavor update videos. Waiting to find out how my spirits turn out as they're aging is the hardest part of the hobby for me! So hearing about how your spirits are developing is very helpful. Also I want to thank you for helping me get started in the hobby, you're awesome!

  • @Tater_Lord

    Loved this video but might wanna look at your camera settings the white balance /ISO was bouncing around alot at roughly the 22:00 mark

  • @bryantcochran5065
    @bryantcochran5065 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Good idea to let it ride. The seasons are what make the whiskey move in and out of the wood. The longer its in there the more mellow those umami notes will be. Thanks for all your doing for distillers knowledge base.

  • @Paulman50
    @Paulman50 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It's amazing how much the sprit changes over time. If it wasn't for video's like this one, i would have chucked some back through the still.

    2 questions:
    1) What kind of affect would hard/rock maple barrels have on distilled spirits?
    2) I am curious what Love Child would taste like with maple wood aging.

  • @krisgaskins1
    @krisgaskins1 ปีที่แล้ว +4

    You alone have created the shortage on these barrels. But I have a buddy that wants to try to make these with me at his mill, so kudos to you and Ben. We're nervous about making the lids but nothing like trial and error for these ADHD bourbon boys to give it a go.

    • @Joe_Bandit
      @Joe_Bandit ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Did you see he has a video showing how they're made?

    Awesome video mate. Excellent to see how your long age stuff is going!

  • @roberthamm9304
    @roberthamm9304 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    If you want to rapid age them faster, put them into either a refrigerator or freezer for 24-48 hours and then pull them out for the same time, and then repeat for about a month, and then sample them for taste and color. If you prefer a darker shade, repeat the process again.

  • @roberthamm9304

    The #5 barrel, your basically looking for something on the grounds of a “preferred stock”, smoothness flavor.

  • @shaneclothier4526
    @shaneclothier4526 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Love the channel great inspiration. After watching this episode I wonder, have you thought of making an "American Whiskey" in the Canadian style by making mashes from separate grains then blending the results.. For example 100% Corn, 100% Rye and 100% Malt, mashes, then blending the distilled product? For your consideration.

  • @kdoggie90

  • @glleon80517
    @glleon80517 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Jesse, Alan Bishop, head alchemist at Spirits of French Lick, maintains that barrel char has no “flavor” but in the process of charcoal filtering the spirit does cause the spirit to change. The barrel notes are from the toast layer underneath the char.

    • @rockymountainhomestead
      @rockymountainhomestead ปีที่แล้ว

      Then why does char 3-5 produce such massively different flavor profiles?

  • @The_McFortner

    @the_whiskeyshaman ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I did the love child. And now I wish I would have put it in a badmo. I think I can save it. It’s a bit too astringent. Maybe a blend in my future.

  • @Lucydius
    @Lucydius ปีที่แล้ว +1

    @silver-hy6mi ปีที่แล้ว +1

    Jess could you please explain your description of astringent?

  • @RobertIsaac
    @RobertIsaac ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I suspect you might be right with the safety net 'bourbon' seeming to age more quickly due to not having as much punch to balance the oak. I'd frame that as a positive; the sort of person who is using the safety net recipe would be rewarded by reaching the final aged balance more quickly.

  • @roberthamm9304
    @roberthamm9304 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    It could be the molasses. What grade of char do you have in the barrel? Try rocking the barrel every few days for around 3 months.

    • @Jamison-

      Rerun it or use it as a mixing agent for other spirits that might not have enough of that kind of finish. Personally I’d rerun it, neat things can happen rerunning something like that

    One question on the barrels, which you’ve never actually covered, and I haven’t been able to find much in the forums.
    How much do you fill your barrels? 100%, or do you leave some head space?

    • @badmotivatorbarrels2273

    • @markellis7961
      @markellis7961 ปีที่แล้ว

      thankyou, I have a 20l barrel with a Irish whiskey recipe that I made up, and it’s really nice, but I still have some room in the barrel, think I might top it up with some of the same whiskey that I have on a stave.
      I am also making a peated version of the same whiskey for another barrel, will do the same.

      see what I'm thinking about doing is making a tequila and a belvedere vodka those are 2 of the most whiskey's I drunk years ago then though about making a rum and a gin combination you know hand craft a new brand

    • @rockymountainhomestead

      If you were, that might be different.
