Re: Mac's Apple Pie Shine
Hey Everyone! Forum newbie here.... I found this while researching my next batch and had to get into the conversation.
Back a few pages I saw the Simply Apple juice and started Googling. This seems to get awesome reviews and I'm game to try it... Soooooo, could I just use this instead of the juice/cider combo? Thoughts? Also, where I can't find 190 proof Everclear I just found 190 proof Golden Grain made by the same company.... I usually add 9 ounces of booze (151 Everclear) to a quart jar and then top off to the line with the 'base'. So Mac, on top of that 9 ounces of what will now be 190 Golden Grain you add almost a ounce per quart of the whipped cream vodka? Never tried that before.... Might give it a shot. Thanks for all the ideas! |

Re: Mac's Apple Pie Shine
Made some with my buddy last night.. Didn't use your recipe. Went off of his. Matter of fact, I have never looked in this thread till now.
Here is out finished product. I am going to make my own, very soon and use your recipe.. Compare the two.. From reading, MACS seems way better!

Re: Mac's Apple Pie Shine
Garry...has to be the cider you choose. I use a local seasonal cider that is "murky"...not as clear as the Tree Top. That's gotta be it.

Re: Mac's Apple Pie Shine
Dam it sucks you can't buy grain in VA. Gonna have to make a trip across the river to either DC or MD and pick some up so I can give it a whirl.
