Notes

Changelog: V1 -> V2

  • Replaced 10 lbs whole corn with flaked corn. Intending to boost sweet corn flavor in final product.

    V2 -> V3
  • Lowered volume to accommodate distilling on grain.
  • Lowered OG to reduce yeast off flavors and speed up ferment time.



    Recipe is a modified version of Jimbo's easy 1/2 barrel bourbon. Rye substitued for wheat and scaled up to yield approx 15 gal of strained mash. Link is attached next to source.


    Yeast starter:
    Make a yeast starter at least 12-24 hrs before pitching in mash. Make a starter with 2 qt water, 0.4 lb light DME, 25 grams MG+ yeast (hydrated before pitching). Yeast can be pitched directly, use 30g if pitching directly.

    Mash production:

  • Mill corn and other grains to a medium grit. Keep corn separate from other grains.
  • Heat 13 gallons water to boiling
  • Add gypsum and other salts to match water profile.
  • Pre-Heat mash tun with boiling water.
  • Transfer strike water to mashtun
  • Dough in corn. Let cool below 190.
  • check PH, adjust accordingly. Targeting 5.4
  • Add Hi temp enzyme and stir well.
  • Let sit about 8-12 hours to let the corn fully gelatinize and cool to barley/rye mashing temp.
  • use a wort chiller, or add cold water to reduce temp to 155 F if necessary. (frozen jugs help also and are easy to clean).
  • Add flaked corn, malted barley, and rye to mash tun. Temp should stabilize at around 148.
  • Let sit 1-2 hrs.
  • Chill with wort chiller and continuosly stir to about 110 F.
  • Adjust ph and add gluco amylase. Target 5.2-5.5 ph
  • Continue stirring and chilling till mash is under 100 F.
  • Transfer to clean fermentation bucket.
  • top off with very cold water to raise total volume to 21 gallons. Stir well.
  • Aerate with pure O2, using a .5 micron diffusion stone. Flow O2 @ 1 L/min for 4 mins. (rinse & boil stone and line afterwards).
  • Pitch yeast starter
  • stir well again.


  • Ferment @ 90 for 4-5 days. Do not go longer than 7 because barley and rye haven't been pasteurized.


  • Transfer liquid directly to kettle and put grains in a muslin bag for stripping. Use a hop filter to keep an opening to the false bottom so bubbles aren't trapped stripping run down to 10% abv or until bored (wait at least until 20%).

  • Keep producing beer and stripping until there is at least 5 gals of stripped liquor. (5 gal is required for a 24 gal still). Should take 2 runs of this recipe to be able to perform a spirit run.

  • Once there is 5 gal stripped liquor, perform a spirit run. Gather sprits in quart jars for cuts.
