Amygalin:
This substance is contained in fruit cores and causes a bitter clay or the marzipan note.
Flavor:

Burning bubble:
Part of the burning boiler which we use to boil the mash.
Burning boiler:

"Depflegmator"
Depflegmator is a bonnet of the column which we use for cooling alcohol steams down and partly liquefying them again. The result of doing so is an alcohol-rich steam which is led into the cooler about the spirit-pipe and a liquid, low in alcohol content, which flows back and vaporizes by warming once more.
Distilling:
A liquid is vaporized by heating and liquefied again by cooling.
Double-fired:
First we destill the rough run out of mash, after that we distill the rough run again and receive the fine fire.
Spirit-pipe:
Connection between helmet and cooler.
Spirit:
If roots or fruits, mostly berries, are fermented into alcohol, get leached out and distilled, you receive a spirit.
Yeast:
Hermeticaly sealed, a fungal which converts sugar in alcohol a process which is called fermentation.
Column:
Since some years column-destilleries become more important. A column is a amplifier facility. The column consists of the boiling grounds and the "Dephlegmator". Now the fine fire can be made out of the mash in one round.
Lutter:
is rough fire
Mash:
Mash are
crushed fruits and roots, which are looked in a fermentation container taged with a fermenting bung to get fermented.
Middle run:
The substance, which we get between fore shot and after run.
After run:
Heavily brief contents substances boiling more highly which must be divided off after the middle run. The after run smells fluffy and causes a scratching taste.
Brewer grains:
That part of the mash which stays in the burning bubble.
Fore shot:
This substance smells like nail polish remover and gives the schnapps an unwanted sharpness.
"Vorlage":
You can find it at the run of the cooler and contains an alcohol spindle, which we use constantly to check the alcoholic content of the distillate.
