Recipe type: Moonshine Brandy
Cuisine: Brandy

Ingredients
  • 10 Cans (11.5 oz.) of Welches 100% Frozen Grape Concentrate
  • 7 lbs of Sugar (granulated)
  • 5 Gallons of Filtered Water
  • 1 packet of Wine or Distillers Yeast – check out our guide here!

    Equipment

  • Boiling Pot
  • Fermentation Bucket
  • Airlock
  • Siphon Tube
  • Strainer/Filter (optional)
  • Moonshine Still

Instructions
  1. Pour a gallon of water in a pot and bring to a boil.
  2. Add sugar and stir until dissolved completely.
  3. Remove from heat and then add frozen grape concentrate.
  4. Top it off with more water to get a total of 5 gallons.
  5. Chill the wort to room temperature and pour it into the fermenter.
  6. Pitch yeast, close the lid, put the airlock in place ensuring an airtight seal.
  7. Let the mixture ferment for a couple of weeks until any activity in the airlock stops for at least 1-2 days.
  8. Rack the wine off the yeast using a siphon tube directly into the still?s pot leaving any sediment in the fermenter.
  9. Fire up the still and perform the distillation as usual.

Notes
It is very important to discard the first 5oz or so (the foreshots) of the collected runnings as these usually contain methyl and other harmful fusel oils.

Make sure to collect the liquid into glass vessels, do not use plastic, as the spirit coming out of the still is hot.

It’s recommended to use smaller vessels in order to observe the exact distinction between different fractions (cuts) of the moonshine.

If needed, taste the spirit by mixing a small amount with an equal amount of cold drinking water.

Optionally, you can put the resulting moonshine into a barrel to mature for added complexity. These barrels are made for whiskey ageing, but should suit the purpose just fine (avoid the ones with whiskey-specific spices)
