│  Just started distilling the Trix cereal wine / beer!

  │  The early part of the run has smelled very berry-like. Not what I was
  │  expecting, though I never eat Trix cereal so I'm a poor judge.
  │  
  │  As we approach the end of the run, the corn notes are starting to come
  │  through. It's interesting how different smells and tastes come out at 
  │  different parts.

    │  I got about ~4 liters out of my 18L 9% ABV Trix experiment.
    │  
    │  700g of smashed and boiled Trix cereal with 3kg of sugar. 
    │  Fermented for 1 week, allowed to clear a bit before boiling
    │  
    │  1st jar (1.5L) smells very fruity -- perhaps berries and citrus 
    │                 ... but also very strong in alcohol
    │  2nd jar (1.5L) is a bit more ambiguous. 
    │  3rd jar (~1L) is much more corny, but also weaker in alcohol. 
    │  
    │  I will likely incorporate this with my ~10L of "stripped" tomato paste
    │  wash to make some kind of gin. The corn and berry notes should add a
    │  nice complexity to the juniper, coriander, et al.

    │   Sampling jar #2 of the Trix cereal wine (72% ABV), mixing with cola.
    │   
    │   The strongest flavors carrying through are corn with incidental 
    │   berry / lemon sweetness. But the heads and tails present hinder the 
    │   potential for tastiness. I feel like if it were to be distilled again,
    │   aged hearts on oak would taste as a pretty tasty bourbon ..

        Mixed some of jar #1 with milk -- wondered how milk w/ cereal liquor
        would be. I'm not sure if it was the "heads" or what but the cocktail
        was almost completely revolting and not something I would wish upon
        my friends or enemies. 2/10
