│  when I get 6 liters out I'm going to shut off the machine
│  starting to taste a lot of tails coming through now 
│  
│  I estimate maybe 2.5L are hearts but I'll need to wait and let the jars
│  air out before diluting, tasting, and blending. Really excited to be

  │  Pretty happy with the yields I got from $14 worth of sugar and trivial
  │  amounts of bran, tomato, and yeast. Water and electric are cheap so I'm
  │  not factoring them in to the total price. 
  │  
  │  > Phase 1
  │  60 L of sugar wine (12kg sugar)
  │  
  │  Distilling these in 20L batches gave me..
  │  
  │  > Phase 2
  │  20 L of 35% low wines
  │  
  │  Distilled slow, collected in small jars gave me...
  │  
  │  > Phase 3
  │  ~7 liters boiled out 
  │  ~4 liters of heads and tails to save for a rainy day
  │  
  │  ~3 liters "hearts" (all with consistent ABV, 70%)
  │  ~6 liters 40% spirit, dilute with water
  │  ~8x 750ml bottles of 40% spirit, will be turned into gin

      I wanted to make a ton of gin but I forgot to do inventory on my 
      juniper berry stash.
      
      Using this recipe, per liter : 
      - 15g crushed juniper
      - 5g crushed coriander
      - 1/4 lemon peel
      - 1/4 lime peel
      - pinch various spices
      
      I steeped 2.5L of "gin" overnight, then took out the citrus peels and
      threw it all in the boiler. Heating up now but I'm looking forward to
      this.
