Bread moonshine: 12 recipes at home

Moonshine is characterized by a mild flavor, considerable strength, and the absence of a strong hangover after drinking.

Preparation of raw materials

Raw materials for a quality drink are usually grown and prepared independently. To do this, spread wheat, barley, corn, oatmeal and other grains in a thin layer and soak them in warm water. Until the sprouts hatch, make sure that the seeds do not turn sour. Sprouted grains are dried and ground to a state of flour.

Grind the raw materials with a meat grinder, coffee grinder, or simply crush them as they have been done since ancient times.

To activate the fermentation processes, cereal malt is diluted in water, yeast, ready-made bread, potatoes and other ingredients are added. Then the mass is insisted and distilled. Hops, peas, sugar are used as a substitute for yeast.
