The Best Method Of Distilling RyeTake four gallons boiling, and two gallons cold water--put it into a hogshead, then stir in one and a half bushels chopped rye, let it stand five minutes, then add two gallons cold water, and one gallon malt, stir it effectually--let it stand till your still boils, then add sixteen gallons boiling water, stirring it well, or until you break all the lumps--then put into each hogshead, so prepared, one pint coarse salt, and one shovel full of hot coals out of your furnace. (The coals and salt have a tendency to absorb all sourness and bad smell, that may be in the hogshead or grain;) if there be a small quantity of hot ashes in the coals, it is an improvement--stir your hogsheads effectually every fifteen minutes, keeping them close covered until you perceive the grain scalded enough--when you may uncover, if the above sixteen gallons boiling water did not scald it sufficiently, water must be added until scalded enough--as some water will scald quicker than others--it is necessary to mark this attentively, and in mashing two or three times, it may be correctly ascertained what quantity of the kind of water used will scald effectually--after taking off the covers, they must be stirred effectually, every fifteen minutes, till you cool off--for which operation, see "Cooling off." To those who distill all rye, I recommend this method, as I have found it to answer every kind of water, with one or two exceptions. Distillers will doubtless make experiments of the various modes recommended and use that which may prove most advantageous and convenient.
