Not true, you can fill the coffee maker with water twice, thrice, and more, but the pot will only hold the first one. :facepalm:

Well I don't know much about it, but my friends make it by mixing sugar, vodka and lemons. It's a bit cloudy, but not too much really. Clearer than most store bought I've seen.

The word you're looking for is limpid.

What about liquifying the sugar before you mix? If you heat sugar, as if you're making toffee, and bring it to the boil but stop the heat before it starts to change colour, then let it cool, that might work. You only need a tiny bit of water to get it started.

translucent ;)

Correct - sort of.
That would allow me to dissolve MORE sugar in the same amount of water. However that won't change its solubility in the grain alcohol (190 proof, 95%) Also, when I cool the limoncello this will make it MORE cloudy, not less.

Use Sweet and Low.

I learned the WW II Underwater Demolition Teams (Frogmen), wore, "trunks with an inflatable belt, canvas shoes and a mask, he said. No neoprene or oxygen tanks for these underwater soldiers of the Pacific. Even the fins didn’t come until later"
No fins. :eek:

Now there is an interesting alternative ... Damn you Bruce, that would mean starting all over with the recipe.

Then you end up with twice as much. Is that bad?

I think Splenda would taste better.

Hmm ... I am still mulling that over.
I would NOT end up with twice as much, I'd just have less sugar in it. I'm not altering the quantity of the liquids.

You have a batch you're not happy with, so you start over with a different method and end up with another batch. Now you have two batches, twice as much.

Everyone knows James Bond drinks Vodka Martinis, shaken not stirred.
Today I learned, In, "On Her Majesty’s Secret Service",(11th book), Bond drinks: Pouilly-Fuissé white wine, Taittinger champagne, Mouton Rothschild ’53 claret, calvados, Krug champagne, 3 bourbon & waters, 4 vodka & tonics, 2 double brandy & ginger ales, 2 whisky & sodas, 3 double vodka martinis, 2double bourbons on the rocks, at least 1 neat whisky, a flask of Enzian schnapps, Marsala wine, the better part of a bottle of fiery Algerian wine, 2 more Scotch whiskies, half a pint of I.W. Harper bourbon, a Jack Daniel’s Tennessee whisky & water, on the rocks, a bottle of Riquewihr wine, 4 steins of Franziskaner beer, and a double Steinhäger gin.

In the whole book series, Bond drinks 19 Vodka Martinis, but 37 bourbons, 21 Scotches and 35 sakes.

Yeah, that phrase has been around for a while, now.

Do try to keep up.

:p:

That's interesting.

XOB - You need to come by and give the latest batch a test drive.
Its pretty damn good, if I do say so myself.
