    Success- watermelon brandy, turned out amazing. Failure- in expecting my flamin hot Cheeto whiskey to turn out awful but maybe I’ll be surprised? Waiting- flamin hot Cheeto whiskey and blueberry brandy, I was expecting the fermentation to slow down by now but it’s going strong for the 4th day in a row. On deck- my girlfriend wants me to brew my fall pumpkin beer, so that’s planned for one of my two fermenters once my other two brews are done. Besides that, I’ve got a long list of weird stuff to try distilling, dunno yet, kinda feeling smarties or some other candy

      I am too conservative for this but I really like your prisonhooch experiments.

      I don’t know if you brew pumpkin beer before but it can get really messy. I had to get in to tank and shovel out pumpkin residue last year.
