Moonshine, like any other craft, does not tolerate fuss and haste. However, in life there are situations when, well, it is very necessary, and also very quickly. In this and other similar extraordinary cases, one can resort to the last resort. Namely, to the accelerated production of the required amount of aquavita.
It is achieved by preparing an early maturing mash, which takes from one to three days, instead of the usual period, often reaching up to two weeks.
It is important to know
When choosing a quick home brew recipe for moonshine, you should keep in mind that when you win in time, you lose according to other criteria:
A smaller amount of the final product will come out of such a mash than from a full-fledged semi-finished product.
The distillate itself, most likely, will not be particularly pleasant in taste and smell.
Of course, the resulting moonshine can be double or even triple cleaned by passing it through charcoal, but this procedure only partially solves the problem.
Early maturing moonshine can be more toxic compared to drinks made according to all the rules of the genre.
As a lover of cooking and drinking home-made distillates figuratively put it: “even with a moderate tasting of the product, there is a noticeable fatigue in the head.”
If, despite all of the above factors, you still want to learn how to make a quick brew for moonshine, please follow me.
