No experience with millet but this might be useful. Millet seems to be a good yield grain and it is on my bucket list...
No experience mashing but it makes for a tasty whiskey!
@captainshooch damn chestnuts sound like fun little project. Already looking into sourcing cashew apples for a take on Feni

Me and my friends like millet whiskey very much which I made Uj style. We also tried blending with some brandies and we liked those a lot also.
Cheers
I have done it ujsm, but not mashed. It's expensive here.

Every time I mash millet I seem to attract every bird in a thirty mile radius, like a Hitchcock movie, I don't get it.
several years back I recall "milletman" describing his process on AHB. He since went on to open O'Briens brewery specialising in gluten free beer made from millet for coleac sufferers.
would be worth a search
@grim, any thoughts on a 100% (except investing in a pair of barn owls)? Also I am following your steam buildout rather closely, I'm helping design another distillery that is basically the same still specs so I thank you for your posts, please keep it up!
@crozdog thanks for the lead, everything helps right now
Cheers all!
Another pointer would be Koval. They have a 100% millet And I think they also consult.
An hour consulting prolly can save you big in experimenting $$$'s
Production of Grain Whisky and Ethanol from Wheat, Maize and Other Cereals @ Wiley Online Library
Is nitrogen referring to protein level? i.e wheat used for bakers flour vs all purpose. Does that present any differences other then handling issues like additional nutrient requirements or differences in final product?
no problem @Kill_Devil_Spirit_Co
he was malting the grain before mashing & posted a how to article here:

hope that helps
100% mashing - treat it like corn/rolled oats.
From my experiments - best used for neutral production(flavourless) - trouble is the price in this part of the world.
