[narrator]
once the yeast is added,
00:00:02.435 --> 00:00:05.436
the grappa mash ferments
for five days.
00:00:05.438 --> 00:00:08.572
Then distillers strain
the solids,
00:00:08.574 --> 00:00:12.001
distilling the liquid
and stripping off the alcohol.
00:00:12.999 --> 00:00:14.545
The resulting base spirit
will be measured
00:00:14.547 --> 00:00:16.881
then re-distilled in
the second run,
00:00:16.883 --> 00:00:19.717
where distillers
refine their flavors
00:00:19.719 --> 00:00:23.087
and achieve
a 70-120 proof grappa
00:00:23.999 --> 00:00:25.998
for the judges to taste.
00:00:26.058 --> 00:00:29.016
All right, guys,
this is your stripping run.
