    A break down of the video. Ingredients: 2.5 lbs six-grain mix (cracked corn, whole wheat, whole oats, whole barley, whole milo, and peas) 1 gallon of water 1 tablespoon amylase enzyme or ground malted barley 6 lbs white sugar 1 gallon room-temperature water Yeast (approximately 1-2 tablespoons) Equipment: 14-quart pressure canner Thermometer Refractometer (for measuring specific gravity) Glass carboy (or a suitable fermenting vessel) Airlock Instructions: Prepare the Grains: Place 2.5 lbs of six-grain mix into the pressure canner. Add 1 gallon of water to the canner. Cook the Grains: Secure the lid on the pressure canner. Select the “Porridge” setting and add 10 minutes to the default time. Allow it to cook overnight or for about 8 hours. Cool and Add Enzymes: After cooking, let the pressure canner depressurize naturally. Once depressurized, open the lid and stir the mash. Check the temperature (aim for 150-157°F). Add 1 tablespoon of amylase enzyme or ground malted barley. Stir the mixture thoroughly and let it sit for about 1.5 hours, cooling down. Prepare the Sugar Solution: Dissolve 6 lbs of white sugar in 1 gallon of room-temperature water. Combine and Measure: Transfer the mash to a fermenting vessel (e.g., a glass carboy). Add the sugar solution to the vessel. Fill with additional water to reach about 4.5 gallons total volume. Measure the temperature (should be around 95°F) and the specific gravity (target 1.070). Pitch the Yeast: Sprinkle the yeast over the surface of the mash. Let it sit for about 10-30 minutes until it starts foaming. Secure the airlock on the fermenting vessel. Fermentation: Allow the mash to ferment, checking periodically. The yeast will convert the starches to sugars and then to alcohol. Monitoring: Monitor the fermentation process and ensure the airlock is bubbling. Notes: This recipe is designed for 5 gallons of mash. Adjust quantities if using a different size pressure canner. Always ensure proper sanitation to prevent contamination.

    Made a 650CC moonshine with a total of 79 % (158 proof) put a bunch of cherry’s that were already on siroop. Also put a cinnamon stick and filled it up to the top of the 2 liter jar with some brown sugar water. So shake ones a day and wait for at least 2 weeks. Will bring it down to 40 or 35 % ones it is done. Can’t wait to taste it. So thanks for the nice idea. 👍🏻 Keep the ideas coming, I will for sure try some more.

    Y'all didn't make a single DROP of corn liquor there. You gelatinized the corn, but didn't add a single enzymatic adjunct (or enzymes alone) to convert those freed starches into corn sugar to ferment... so no, that was not a "Basic Mash for Moonshine," that was "a cane sugar wash with unfermentable corn solids" ... and nobody calls that moonshine unless they're a conman or a fool who got conned.

    • @FarmhouseBC
      @FarmhouseBC ปีที่แล้ว

      It is a beginner recipe and is an introduction to grains. Then when they get used to it they can start converting the starches into fermentable sugars and work their way to an all grain. We have groups for all levels. Thank you for your input.

      @@stevealford230 I agree I teach hundreds of thousands of people on my group’s and this simple corn is better than a sugar wash. If you keep the gravity low at least it’s drinkable. But if you try to teach people all grain no added sugar they will fail and give up the craft. If you start them out simple and work them up then they will succeed.

      I don’t cooking grains with the soured pulp and adding the back set and bringing up the starting gravity up with cane sugar. I usually do a starting gravity of 1.065. If you convert the starches into fermentable sugars it is usually less than a pound of sugar per gallon.
