On this subject as on many others, distillers differ very much, some requiring rye to be ground very coarse, others very fine, while others go so far as to say it should only be ground upon country stones and very slowly!--As to this I cannot judge; it is true, that rye is sometimes so ground as to render it dead or inert and difficult to ferment, but this rarely happens with a tolerably good miller.

It should neither be so fine as is requisite for boulting, nor so coarse as is generally chopt for horse feed. In the latter case it is subject to a considerable loss, inas much as it resists the impression of the hot water in scalding. It will not form a proper union with the water, consequendy cannot be made to ferment perfectly, it however imbibes a sufficient quantity of moisture to make it turn sour; the acidity is communicated to the whole cask, and it tends rapidly to an acetous instead of a vinous product.
