Making A Smokey Scotch With A Safety Net

It's time to make an Islay Scotch with a SAFETY NET!

This is the third recipe in the Safety Net series. This time il be showing you how to make an Islay style scotch with 1 part all-grain mash and 2 parts sugar. The grain brings the flavour and the sugar gives you a safety net.

If you are new to all-grain brewing for distilled spirits this recipe is the perfect way to jump in. Even if you COMPLETELY screw up the mash you will still get a solid result . . . . and honestly you won't. It's pretty easy so get stuck in.

If you are comfortable with the brewing side of things feel free to triple the mash and ditch the sugar altogether.
