How To Brew Your Own Moonshine at Home
Moonshine has been around for generations.
It is a type of liquor that has been illegally brewed for years. Home brewed whiskey is making a comeback in the past few years, as more people seek out a unique flavor and experience. Making moonshine is a great way to save money and still enjoy a tasty alcoholic beverage. Here are the steps for creating your own moonshine at home.
Gather all necessary equipment. To make moonshine, you will need to gather up some basic equipment. This includes a fermenter, a boiler, and a still. Make sure that all of your equipment is of the highest quality, as it will affect the quality of your moonshine. Also, you will need some sugar, yeast, and water.
Prepare the fermenter. Start by cleaning your fermenter with a sanitizing solution. Rinse it thoroughly and then allow it to dry before you begin. Once your fermenter is clean, add the sugar, yeast, and water into the fermenter and stir until it is fully combined. Put the lid on the fermenter and let the mixture sit for 10-14 days.
Boil and distill the liquid. Once the fermentation process is complete, it’s time to start the distilling process. Put the boiler on the stove and heat the liquid until it boils. Once it starts to boil, you can filter out any impurities using a cheesecloth. Once you have filtered the liquid, transfer it to the still. Heat the still to a desired temperature and collect the liquid in a container. The liquid that you collect is your moonshine.
Once you have collected your moonshine, it’s time to enjoy it! Make sure that you keep it in a cool and dark place and enjoy responsibly. Home-brewed moonshine can be a great way to save money and have a unique flavor, just remember to be safe and legal when making it.
