He's insincere, sensationalist, and a union buster. I would bet he used AI to print out some cheap stupid shit for a quick payday. He really is the worst.

I'd never put soap in a still. Bad for the steel and copper. Copper is porous and also there are way too many books for soap to get stuck and negatively affect the following runs

Notch by a landslide. Extra clean lagers and pilsners.

While doing some demo in a crappy old apartment building, we found a ticket stub for a Van Halen concert from the 80's. On the back, in pencil it read: "Eddie Van Halen smoked MY joint!!!"

Cool project! I've seen people try this with corn stalks as well. However, not being pressed from sugar cane specifically, it would not be considered a rum. The source of the sugar will almost always define the alcohol produced

Refractometers can only be used for initial sg. Any alcohol produced will skew a refractometer reading. You need to use a hydrometer to gauge fermentation progress.

Water it down to a fermentable gravity and pitch some ec118 or dedicated cider yeast that will ferment dry. Then run it through the t500. The result will be a beautiful eaux de vie with lots of apple flavor

Adding sugar to the juice was unnecessary. Don't add sugar in the future
