As stated in the introductory blog about distillation, distillation is the purpose of the first called. Reinforcements. Get a ferment containing glass jug with lid ethanol 5-15 vol.% (Or less) the spirit of the ethanol content of about 50 vol.%, Which is then suitable glass jug with lid for producing brandy. Despite 1.Destilace is very delicate process and the final product can greatly noted. Attention glass jug with lid is drawn to three points: Quality leaven: Quality kvas is a prerequisite for a successful first distillation. No defect is not wholly remove glass jug with lid leaven and all remedies to remove them bring other defects (eg. Loss of aroma etc.). Leaven will never fundamentally smell, but it should never smell bad (rot zoctění etc.) Will taste sour, but it will always replicate the taste of fruit from which it is prepared. If no apparent alcohol smell and kvas is also sweet, was not fully fermentation and distillation of such leaven glass jug with lid is basically doomed to failure. In such a situation it is advisable to distillation small sample (just i 1 liter) and concentrations are obtained Lutra decide on further action. It should be appreciated that the failed distillation leaven is unusable for further fermentation. Kvass neředíme: the higher the concentration of the feedstock, the higher the concentration glass jug with lid Lutry and its total amount. Completely against mathematical consideration is the experience that the distillation 100 l containing 10 vol.% Ethanol is obtained more than Lutry distillation 500 l containing 2 vol.% Ethanol. In the distillation of low-percentage glass jug with lid ferments, should always be used even though the condenser to settle for inferior brandy. The problem comes in very dense ferment when dilution is no longer necessary glass jug with lid because of the possibility of overcooking. glass jug with lid In this case, only dilute the stock within. Kvass mix: First, due to better heat distribution volume (in some parts may be several temperature difference C) and also because of possible burning ferment. Charring leaven is a major deficiency of distillate, glass jug with lid which can not be removed. Noted olfactory sensation and taste, and give rise to a number of compounds that are harmful to health. 1.Destilace is done mostly without dephlegmator obtained LUTR in any way separate into individual fractions, but it takes from the beginning of distillation at up to 20 vol.% Ethanol in abstraction glass jug with lid Lutra. At this concentration is Lutra ethanol content in kvass below 1 vol.% Plus fusel oil content in abstraction glass jug with lid Lutra is so high that it could adversely affect the subsequent brandy. Deslik your experience ...
Hello, glass jug with lid this is different please leaven leaven. glass jug with lid When he was sufficiently sweet mash and ferment is well maintained, contains enough alcohol. In this case the temperature range 80-90 C. Sometimes glass jug with lid it is necessary to ferment squeeze up to 95 C. Personally, I would not take as authoritative guidance lihovitost the collected Lutra. Below 20% vol. Ethanol abstraction Lutra by us does not make sense to go. Good luck. 26 October glass jug with lid 2010 12:09
Hello, I have 25L stainless Kotlik (15L leaven), warmed indirectly through salt water. Thermometer in the head Boilers showed about 105 degrees (do not know if he and so believe). Yesterday I tried for the first time Palit and spilled about 1 liter of 40% Lutra. Pote even though I was drowning like a fool, He did not want anything tect, even leap tube was cold (head of the boiler glass jug with lid was hot). According to me, there should at worst leak of about 3.5L around 35% of Lutra. glass jug with lid Transfer the tube or clogging, nor have I any leakage nedocichal par. In what could be the problem? Another thing that struck me from LUTR has a slight bluish color. It's okay? After ignition burns with a blue flame. September 20, 2011 8:39
Hello temperature of 105 C does not seem to me too, I would say about 10 C would be less likely, but it has now set aside. A little counting rule of three, called. Litrprocenta ... kvass usually has around 10% vol.et for your 15 liters of kvass is 150 litrprocent. If distilled 5 liters will lihovitost Lutry 150/5 = 30%. According to you is the worst result of a 3.5-liter Lutra therefore calculated by 42% vol.et. These are of course only approximate calculations. Your result 15: x / 1: 40 ... means .... oalááá leaven of lihovitosti 2.5% vol. Et. This would accord and cold transfer glass jug with lid tube, simply had nothing to distill. The question is, how's the leaven? It is properly fermented, not yet sweet, not spoiled ...? Bluish color Lutra wrong. Most probably verdigris in a cooler (clean) or you overflowed from foam cooler to leaven Lutra (depends what you fermented). Good luck. September 20, 2011 9:16
Well, tech 3,5litru 35% I just indicative guess;) do not know what they are losing so. I verdigris purified solution of baking soda and then citric acid solution and then with water and distilled'm still water. Therefore I would expect from verdigris will be gone. Kvas mel month ago 4% sugar content. So I suppose he already is sufficiently worked. After distillation, I have a little glass jug with lid juice from the slops and measured the Alcoholmeters mel 0% (however it is apparently not measured well, because the state is not a mixture water +) alcohol.

Hello, Verdigris is alkaline in nature, therefore, only cleaning acids makes sense. Citric acid it needs enough time and
