You use mash from the previous set to “start” your next set.Sweet Mash has no starter. Every batch is its own batch, with nothing added to adjust the PH (which is the purpose of the starter in sour mash)Sweet mash is harder but more controllable because you start fresh every time, but you run the risk of bacteria.Sour mash is easier and safer, because it corrects the PH to help drive out bacteria.Sourceshttps://hardtruth.com/our-story/ https://www.abvnetwork.com/whiskey-corner/2019/2/25/whats-the-deal-with-sour-mash-vs-sweet-mash https://alchemistcabinet.wordpress.com/2019/02/01/sweet-mash-vs-sour-mash/ https://www.jconline.com/story/life/2022/03/18/hard-truth-distillery-gin-vodka-rum-whiskey/7047278001/
