The crazy angel's share taken during the rye's maturation convinced me to keep the costs down on this second experiment. One of the main quirks is that the liquid/water is evaporating faster than the alcohol so the end result gets much much hotter than the stuff poured in at the start. By keeping the ABV low, I keep the darn thing drinkable at the end. The Rye Storm is insanely hot, almost undrinkable, and that started at 46%ABV.Diving for Pearlshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02373371259792882112noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3101162324715983722.post-48373168557200684182013-11-14T20:27:04.392-05:002013-11-14T20:27:04.392-05:00If I were a braver (and richer) man, I would have ...If I were a braver (and richer) man, I would have exchanged one of the bottles of Original with Astar just to see if the higher alcohol content would change anything. Of course, you'd be out $76 (plus the two bottles of Original) if the experiment went wrong in a bad way.Erichttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13215982348779717643noreply@blogger.com
