Had to deal with a bit of copper coming of the still (if you do this ph balance it with some citric acid otherwise it’ll eat your copper still) but wow. All I can say is it’s worth it. I don’t think I’d call it butterscotch flavored but it’s extremely creamy off the still so when I toss some candies into the liquid afterwards it’ll be exactly what I’m looking for. I’ll have to make this again

Excellent! Here's one who was waiting to hear how this experiment would go. Great to hear of your success 👌

Awesome! is creamy like in the flavor? the mouthfeel? both? something else?

Both! It turned out great! Though if you make it I recommend not adding the cream centered ones. It looked like a jar of… questionable liquid afterwards. Flavor was on point though lol

LOL, I'll keep that in mind
