yes you heard right...Making vodka! since that i've ceased growing MJ a few weeks back ive decided to turn my attention to making liquor, and what better choice than vodka! Im making it the old fashion way...POTATOES!!! its a very smelly process as im finding out but i'll show you the recipe that im using incase you may also want to do this:
3 pounds of potatoes
4 pounds of sugar
2 oranges
1 tablespoon of champagne yeast
You can use other things to flavour it such as raisins and lemons...you basically grate the potatoes...boil em in 3 quarts of water for 15 mins(3 quarts=6 pints if your wondering) scoop out the froth you get...strain into a pot and add sugar, let cool to room temp then add yeast and let sit for a week. stirring or shaking daily.
Then the fun part: Distilling! Warning of advice...discard first and last 100ml as it contains methynol...which can blind you! end result should be 45-55% vodka depending on how you distill it...Enjoy! ill add pics later on
