"i know i screwed this up but i after i mashed up a corn likker recipe i relalized that i didnt have any bakers yeast and only had a packet up turbo yeast and couldnt go to the store to get bakers yeast. the recipe was
7lbs flaked maize
1.75 lbs malted barley
1 lbs rye.
7 lbs sugar.
the first 24 hours the fermenter was raising major hell and after it is popping once about 20 seconds. the sg was 1.09o and i havent got to check it tonight after the fermented stopped. did i screw up this batch with the turbo yeast or should i run it and see what i get?"

"You did'nt screw up anything. That's the way turbo works. Go ahead and run it, make your cuts every 1/2 pint, throw out the first 100-150ml,fore shots, and cover the rest of your cut jars with a coffee filter or paper towel or napkin. Wait a couple of days and give it the old sniff test starting in the middle of your run. That's why you number you cut jars or at least keep them lined up in the order they came out.
I keep my heads and tails to throw into the next run, some people mix it all together and drink it, aint no accounting for taste. Others throw out the heads and tails. There's alcohol in there with the smelly stuff and I don't see why it should'nt be taken out with the next run.
Have Fun"
