What Is Moonshine And How To Make It

Is moonshine the same as white lightning? This question is often asked in order to distinguish between these two types of liquor. The answer is no. Moonshine is a type of distilled liquor made with corn, while white lightning is made with potatoes. Traditionally, moonshine was made by home-distilling methods and was used for medicinal purposes. Nowadays, many states allow commercial distilling operations that produce moonshine for sale. Understand and learn why it’s called moonshine. Here are some ways to make your own homemade moonshine at home.

Moonshine is made by fermenting a mash of corn and sugar. The mash is then distilled in a still to create the alcohol. This still, called a moonshine still, consists of copper coils with a copper bottom and top. The mixture is heated and vaporized through the coils. The vaporized liquid is then condensed back into liquid form through the coils. The alcohol is then collected and bottled by the distiller.

Making moonshine requires the use of corn, sugar, yeast, and water. The yeast is added to the mixture and allowed to ferment for a few days. After fermentation, the mash is placed in a pot and boiled for about an hour. The mash is then cooled and transferred to a barrel (a barrel is a large container).

The mash is then mixed with water and allowed to ferment for several days. Then the mash is heated to boiling temperature so that it can be distilled with a moonshine still. The mixture is then cooled in order to condense the vaporized liquid back into liquid form. This liquid alcohol can then be collected from the still or bottled by the distiller for sale.

Moonshine can be made in many different forms. There are two main types of moonshine, white lightning and corn whiskey. White lightning is made by fermenting a mash of potatoes and sugar to produce the alcohol. Corn whiskey is made by fermenting a mash of corn into the alcohol. Corn whiskey generally has a much stronger flavor than white lightning due to the higher amount of starch in the mash.

Making moonshine requires the use of yeast, corn, water, and sugar. The yeast is added to the mixture and allowed to ferment for several days. After fermentation is complete, the mash is placed in a pot and boiled for about an hour. The mash is then cooled in order to condense the vaporized liquid back into liquid form through distillation with a still.
