Ian Smiley “Making Pure Corn Whiskey: A Professional Guide For Amateur And Micro Distillers"
Ian Smiley | 2003-12-30 | ISBN: 0968629210 | 182 pages | PDF | 1,5 Mb
Reader's review:
Home distilling is a rewarding hobby that combines skills as diverse as
cooking, zymurgy, plumbing, chemistry and thermodynamics. Although it
takes no great skill to whip up a batch of 'shine, this is a hobby that
can be taken to great depths. The author has made a comprehensive guide
to producing top-notch corn whiskey using hardware-store materials. The
purity of the product produced using the methods he describes far
outstrips any that Grampaw could have made with his old thumper. The
author's approach is very informative, without going overboard on
technical detail. It is quite readable and should be considered a
must-have for anyone looking into the hobby. Bear in mind, though, this
is an instructional manual, so it isn't sprinkled with amusing
anecdotes or breezy prose. It is simply a perfect 'how-to' manual.
