@@dbomber69 The problem with watermelon and many other things is the experience is mostly retro nasal. If you hold your nose and dont breathe while eating watermelon it's not particularly sweet, and slightly tart but it isn't much else. 90% of it is aroma compounds and when you ferment it those aromas are either consumed by the yeast or driven off by fermentation so you get this mostly bland slightly tart water that tastes of cucumbers more than watermelon. Same thing happens with pears it just turns into this sour weird tasting stuff that is nothing like the original and the only way to get that experience back is to either back flavor it or use something artificial that is more stable that the yeast won't consume. The crazy thing to me is aromas like citrus, apple, pear, blackberry, banana and apricot are only like a atom or two different and they all behave very differently when you ferment them. Blackberry makes a fine wine, apricot not so much and the only difference is the oxygen group is moved over a bit.

I have been rocking 14 of their shirts for the last year and they all look damn near new. I work at a Museum with dinosaurs and space halls so they had a ton that immediately went into the cart. I get constant compliments about my shirts every day.

I made a strawberry watermelon shine. My friend has several farm stands and had a couple of pallets of strawberries where some were bad, so they couldn't sell them, so they gave them to me and I sorted them. Ended up with 4 1 gallon freezer bags of strawberries. They also had 5 watermelons that were fine, but just had blemishes outside that they wouldn't sell. So, I blended the fruits, added 16 lbs of raw sugar. Fermented with DADY and cut the results with pure filtered watermelon juice instead of water, to 80 proof. Put 4 sliced strawberries in each quart. Strained after a month. Tasted like you had a strawberry jolly rancher in one cheek, and a watermelon jolly rancher in the other. It was so smooth that it would sneak up on you!!

You probably should have fermented with the pulp to bring out more of the watermelon flavor, and added watermelon to a thumper to bring out more flavor.

Watermelon and cucumber are family plants along with pumpkin and squash. ..cucurbits.

I picked up 25 giant watermelons last summer. Made a wash without any added sugar. Og of like 1.034. About 30 gallons. Fermented for 3 days. Ran it. Tasted like bleh funkyness up front. But once you swallowed you got that fresh watermelon juice flavor all the way down your throat.

I dont drink much, but I love watching the moon fairy polishes it till it shines. The stuff thats not used goes into a container and when its full, the moon fairy polishes that till its 90% and mixes it with a lill bit of petrol. My classic car loves it

int nobodies state in the US lets you distill, but great to see you still working with the fairy. My distilling god did cranberry, elderberry with some root beer and it was quite tasty after he was done

A few things that might help. First when you are picking your watermelons to use, make sure you taste them first. You want ones that have a rich "watermelon" flavor rather than just a "meh" one. This is a common issue since lots of watermelons don't actually taste that good, especially if you are getting them off season. When separating out the flesh, you want to make sure you don't get any rind. Better to lose a little bit of the red. Throw all the flesh into a pot and heat it low to medium on your stove, stirring and mashing it. Almost all the flesh should turn to liquid, with only a little stringy solids remaining. Watermelon has basically no nutrients in it so always requires yeast nutrients. I know he added nutrients but you have to work hard to balance them for watermelon. Treat it the same as you would a straight sugar wash. Looking at the ratios used for wines is helpful here. For your yeast, bread yeast will actually produce the best flavor and at the ABV possible should be fine. Lots of commercial distillers actually use bread yeast because of how good it taste and how well it carries over flavors of what you are distilling. Finally and most importantly, back sweeten the final product. Without sweetness it will never taste like watermelon. I would recommend starting with a small sample and slowly adding simple to it a little at a time until the flavor shows up. The flavor will seem to just suddenly appear once you hit the right level. From there you can calculate how much simple you need and any additional water to hit your target ABV.

Inspired by your original Apple Jack video, I made a strawberry/watermelon moonshine a few years ago, and it was okay, but got much and much better over time. It ended up tasting, after a few months of aging (in a neglected bottle on my kitchen counter) like a really tasty brandy.

Yea I have only run watermelon once and it did not come out good. I ended up adding it to another run that turned out better, but I had high hopes for watermelon. I mean I could have used watermelon juice to mix it and that turned out okay on my sample, but I wanted to keep it clear and it just was not happening. Interested to see what you do with it.

My thoughts exactly!

I make watermelon brandy every year and there are a few tricks to get it spot on, you have the basics correct. I normally wait until mid summer and source the big sweet ripe watermelons. The trick is, after your run, put it in your oak barrel, I age mine 3 years, then I cut to 43% and add a little bit of invert sugar syrup, this just enhance that watermelon taste, it comes out very smooth and great tasting on the rocks.

A little coconut cream a little strawberry syrup and some Mt. Dew Major Mellon. Boom: Tiger's Blood

Hi there I’m an old man looking at this old time blessing and just starting out with pot. Had to stop smoking it cos it screwed with hospital blood test results, so just boozing slowly now.

Hi! Let me say something about it. At first - yeast eats flesh of the fruit etc. When we use only juice - all (whatever) is taste like shit. It is. How to correct it? Always leave fruit flesh inside bag. After yeast will eats up what he can there is no much left, but we have taste. Now I am in process of beets+apples+pears+rhubarb wine. There is this simple technique in motion. +100C water and 3 bags - drowning inside for about 10 hours. Than add sugar+yeast in fermenter - all bags inside. Results are excellent for this lazy style of brewing. Cheers! 🥂

Maybe try using double the watermelon and boil it down to concentrate the flavor then send it off to the Liquor Fairy

Moonshiners made green lizard, no sugar and they used the rind.

I also wonder if placing brown sugar, molasses, oak shavings or honey in the thumper would make a rum, whisky or mead flavoured spirit?
