  • Ever wonder exactly how much grain it takes to make a whiskey? We're gonna find out! And maybe have a epic duel along the way. The best science always ends in a showdown, right?

    You needed to go one step further, gentlemen: How many square feet (or acres) of land does it take to produce the actual Grain that makes up a barrel, or a bottle, of Whiskey? (And why not get the same numbers for Corn and Bourbon?) And then, I expect that you will engage in yet another battle, to be held out in such a field! - j q t -

    Also depends on grain used. Corn produces more fermentable sugar than malt or rye so a higher corn recipe would take less. BUT in general a grain mash will yield about 8% ABV but the distillation method (pot still or column) will have different yield. And you are correct there are yield losses at every step. For us about 1500 lbs yields a barrel (53 gallons) and we get 5 bottles per gallon (but then you have angel's share so again a variable). In general it takes a ST (shit ton) of grain to make a bottle and a lot of work!

When Rex showed his face after 45 seconds into Daniels answer it was like looking into a mirror. Could this nerd travesty be saved? Only w/a a true reckoning can this debacle be resolved. A duel at high noon w the choicest of weaponry. Only the one w the true spirit of fun residing within shall prevail.... P.s. loved the trick photography of Daniel holding up regular bags of household flour to look like warehouse size bags of grain!

One of my friends' former bosses told him that he used to buy moonshine from an old moonshine maker who made it from grass clippings. My friend asked him if it was any good and he said that it was some of the best moonshine he ever tasted.

    In today's episode we learn that answering a simple question is not a simple task at times. We also learn that while Daniel and Emma may be a healthy weight... a mooch weight will always be more than most, because they are probably just made of more whiskey to begin with. And finally, Rex gets to do what every Texas film creator wants to do... and do a wild and rowdy Texas style showdown.... using grain filled tube socks and a bag full of liquid "whiskey".

    The bottle of infinite punishment. An infinity bottle of intentionally conflicting drinks. To start you off with a theme, fireball, peppermint schnapps, and a rye. The kicker is to serve it in a cup that announces the punishment to those around. Such as affixed bells.
    That was actually the second punishment/possible idea. The first is a potent smelling whiskey flavored with durian. Is it possible to win against the smell of durian?
