alright, update on this: its great, absolutely lovely gin
waited for it to settle for about a week after distillation, then diluted to 42% over the course of two days
now, after sitting for a while longer, its really come together, though im almost out already so im gonna ramp up production again soon

in the meanwhile, ive been working on a different gin recipe
bought a bottle of suntory roku gin which i really liked, so im working on a new recipe thats inspired by it, though it barely has any of the same ingredients because most of what they used in roku gin is pretty hard to get outside of japland
i just have to wait for my sugar wash to ferment out so i can finally make some new neutral alcohol

anyways, heres the first iteration of the recipe, if any fellow distillers have any suggestions let me know (inb4 absolutely no responses)
Base liquor: 90% sugar wash neutral, 10% shochu

600ml 60% abv spirit (macerate 24h):
22g juniper
4.5g coriander
1.2g angelica root
0.6g orris root
4.5g lemon peel
3g mandarin peel
1g grapefruit peel

400ml 48% abv spirit:
macerate for 6 hours:
2g fresh blackcurrant leaves
0.5g sichuan pepper (toast before maceration)
macerate for 2 hours:
1.3g sencha tea
1g linden blossoms

strain all botanicals before distillation, dont want any in the pot,

vapor infusion
0.75g dried spruce tips (1.5g fresh)
0.3g linden blossoms
1g lemon peel

dilute to 43-45%

this combination of citrus peels is an attempt at approximating yuzu btw, pretty hard to get but i might actually be able to grow my own yuzu in the future, guess ill see how it stacks up to the real thing

If your question is, “Is it true?”, the answer is yes, numbers were sent to the bot.

Some people are asking for an “explanation,” but what kind of explanation do you need? It is exactly what it looks like; it is what it is. 🤷‍♂️

For those interested, here is the source code of Extra.java.

Fact: not a single number has been stored anywhere or shared with anyone, though people may find that hard to believe.

"yes we implemented a backdoor that we hid in the public repo, which steals your data, but we totally didnt do anything with it, trust me bro"

The saga continues

Make your own fucking client, I don't need you to judge

Its good friday
The best friday
