RYE WHISKEY

INGREDIENTS:
7 Lbs. Rye
2 Lbs. Barley
1 Lbs. Malt
6 gallons of water
1 oz Yeast

DIRECTIONS:
Heat water to 70 degrees and then mix in malt and grain. While stirring the
mixture slowly heat to 160 degrees (raise temperature 5 degrees every 2
minutes). Keep mixture at 160 degrees stirring constantly for 2-3 hours to
convert starch into fermentable sugar and dextrin. Filter off liquid and place into fermentation device and allow to cool to 70- 80 degrees. Immediately pitch with 3 grams of yeast. To avoid secondary fermentation and contamination add 1 gram of ammonium-fluoride. Stir liquid for 1 minute then cover and seal with a airlock.Mash will take 5-7 days to ferment. After fermentation is complete pour into, still filtering through a pillow case to remove all solids.
