Moonshine Vodka, 70 cl

Product Information

I had a go at making Potato Vodka, I have heard of it being made before in Russia and Poland and there are various recipes out there for it. In summation, New Scotch Spirits will never legally sell any brand of spirit under the “moonshine” moniker. stir your yeast in to the jug and let it sit until the fermenter has reached the working temp of the yeast, then pour it in and give it a good stir, try and get some air in there with it if you can this will help the yeast get going before it gets in the main fermenter and should speed things up a little.

But “moonshine” is distinguished from whiskey by virtue of its illegal nature, rather than being a different type of alcohol. A triple distilled vodka, ideal on its own, with ice, or as a mixer to create your flavour cocktails. And there isn’t much of a difference at all between unaged whiskey and moonshine; they largely have the same production process. Whatever clandestine distillers can get their hands on and want to work with (under cover of darkness, by the light of the moon—thus the term) is fair game. Our Barrel Aged Moonshine is truly a testament to the quality of moonshine coming from Ash and his team.Now this one was a learning curve for me as I have mostly done sugar washes and a couple of All Grain Mashes. this does not mean your mash or wash has gone bad this just means the yeast is producing sulphides which stink. You should also be allowing your fermenter to cool to the same temp at this point as well, it will cool slower than the jug because of the volume. Alcotec Essences Swedish Vodka Add one of these sachets to a 750ml bottle of Vodka or Moonshine to turn it into the Spirit or Liqueur of your choice.

in a bowl, pan or jug put your barley malt in and add some water, not hot water this will kill the enzymes, use cold or warm water, give it a stir and add it to your fermenter when the temp in the fermenter is around 66 degrees C. Most purchases from business sellers are protected by the Consumer Contract Regulations 2013 which give you the right to cancel the purchase within 14 days after the day you receive the item. this is not normally a problem for a sugar wash, and you can sometimes get away with it on an All grain as well.

I put my still on at half power, and then put on the column, I also added a Sight Tower (you don't have to have this) just so that I could see it working, I put a couple of copper scrubbers in there which help to slightly reflux the vapor making it a little purer. I was too busy cleaning it up to take a lot of pictures but I have some of the cap and a little of the mess from half way through cleaning it up.
