"I'm pretty new to distilling and due to time/$$$/space issues I've concocted a simple pot still that runs decently using a basic corn meal/sugar wash.

What I'm looking for is a basic molasses/sugar recipe to make roughly 2-4 gallons of wash. (I'm running a small system. I don't drink a lot and don't need a lot of excess liquor on hand.)

If anyone has any information (basic or involved) they would care to share, please, let me know!

Thanks!"
