Cornmeal Moonshine Recipe 5 Gallons

THE TASTIEST CORNMEAL MOONSHINE RECIPE

Steps:

• The first step is to gather all your equipment and ingredients. Start with a clean work area and clean equipment.
• Pour water into a large cooking pot and heat to 165°F. Once your water has reached 165°F remove your pot from heat.
• Add in your crushed corn, stirring well for 3 to 5 minutes to fully incorporate.
• Once the cornmeal has been incorporated stir for 30 seconds every five minutes. You will notice your mash is taking on a 'gel' like texture. This is a sign the enzymes are being broken down.
• Monitor the temperature of your mash. Once it reaches 152°F you are ready to add the barley. Stir for 1-2 minutes and put the lid on the pot to rest for 90 minutes.
• When your mash is almost finished resting (around the 75 minute mark) it is time to make your yeast starter.

• Sugar
• Yeast
• Pressure Cooker
• Copper Tube
• Vessel (to collect moonshine)
• Charcoal
• Instructions
• Go to the market and buy 25 pounds of cornmeal, 100 pounds of sugar, 100 gallons of water and 6 ounces of yeast.
• Next, you will be required to collect the necessary equipments, like a few large pots, a large pressure cooker and a coiled copper pipe.
• Put water in the pot and place it on stove. Keep on boiling it until it reaches a rolling boil.
• Add cornmeal to the water. The resultant mixture will be known as mash.
• Keep aside the mash and let it cool down, till it is warm to the touch.
• Now, add sugar and yeast to the warm mash.
• Again, keep it aside and let it ferment for 4 to 5 days.
• Keep on checking the mash and when it stops bubbling, it means that it is ready. At this stage, the mash is known as sour mash or beer.
• Put the sour mash into the pressure cooker and keep it on fire, till it goes up to 173 degrees Fahrenheit.
• At this temperature, the alcohol content of the mixture will start rising to the surface.
• With the help of a coiled copper pipe, passed through cold water, trap vaporized alcohol in a separate vessel.
• As the vapors from the cooker pass through the cold copper tubing, they will slowly condense into the liquid called moonshine.
• Finally, filter the moonshine through charcoal, making it absolutely fit for consumption.
