Recipe to make a nice rye whiskey.

RYE WHISKEY 

INGREDIENTS: 
7 Lbs. Rye 
2 Lbs. Barley 
1 Lbs. Malt 
6 gallons of water 
1 oz Yeast 

DIRECTIONS: 
Heat water to 70 degrees and then mix in malt and grain. While stirring the 
mixture slowly heat to 160 degrees (raise temperature 5 degrees every 2 
minutes). Keep mixture at 160 degrees stirring constantly for 2-3 hours to 
convert starch into fermentable sugar and dextrin. Filter off liquid and place 
into fermentation device and allow to cool to 70- 80 degrees. Immediately pitch 
with 3 grams of yeast. To avoid secondary fermentation and contamination add 1 
gram of ammonium-fluoride. Stir liquid for 1 minute then cover and seal with a 
airlock.Mash will take 5-7 days to ferment. After fermentation is complete pour 
into, still filtering through a pillow case to remove all solids.
