How do Jamaican distillers make funky, high-congener rum? Part 2 explores dunder, and cane acid, the ingredients that push fermentation beyond the ordinary.
Matt, do you have any info on what happens to the cane trash before it is put into the cisterns for fermenting cane acid, and after this fermentation? Is this trash loaded fresh each time, or is it the same batch for the entire season?
Great stuff Matt, I wonder which rabbit hole comes next Geotrichum? I look forward to it.
Thanks for the kind words. Next post it not Geotrichum, but you’re warm.
Clostridium!
