including it the oats uh yes you can completely find traditional irish whiskies with oats in it that is totally a normal thing and this is going to help us really dial that up a little bit more because we're using so much sugar in this recipe obviously we can't call this an irish whiskey i'm not an island and i'm adding sugar to it but that sugar is essentially robbing us of flavor and more importantly in my opinion mouth feel this is going to help combat that a little bit now a reminder guys all of that stuff needs to be crushed if it's not crushed or milled as we like to call it it's not going to do much your efficiency in the mash is going to be terrible not that it matters too much but you can either mash it with one of those things a barley mill or if you're buying it from a homebrew store they will almost certainly mill it for you now the next step guys we are going to need our tNUMBER_TOKEN still but we do not need whoops my gasket's coming off we do not need the top part what we're going to do is fill this bad boy up with NUMBER_TOKEN liters that's i don't know this much whatever that is in freedom units we're going to fill it up with NUMBER_TOKEN liters of water and start this thing warming up our goal here is we want all of the grain nicely mixed into the water and as soon as it's all mixed in we want it to be at NUMBER_TOKEN degrees celsius that in fahrenheit the easiest way to do this is with a strike water calculator there is one on URL_TOKEN link in the description down below as well because we're all doing the same recipe the only difference the only variable between what i'm doing here and what you're doing at your place will be the ambient temperature so please guys do use that calculator to make sure you get the right temperature to start with the number that that calculator spits out is the temperature that you want the water to get to right before you start adding in your malt when you start getting close to that strike water temperature you can get your brew in a bag bag ready now guys a quick warning here if you're going to be using this pot to change temperatures and if you follow this exactly you will please make sure that you're keeping that bag away from the bottom of the pot for shadowing once the strike water gets the temperature the one from the the calculator that you got start mixing your grains in and make sure that the still is turned off at this point here's the thing guys go slow a little bit of grain mix it up a little bit more grain mix it up if you don't do this if you go too fast or you don't mix enough you can get dough balls once everything's all mixed back in find an impromptu lid for your still insulate it all up and we're going to let this sit for NUMBER_TOKEN minutes you know what guys with NUMBER_TOKEN minutes you could legitimately be well on your way to creating a really cool website with today's sponsor squarespace i built this website for my dad i know it's ugly get over it i built it like NUMBER_TOKEN years ago give me a break anyway he just got in touch with me and he's asked me to update a few things about the website the only thing i
