This corn whiskey moonshine recipe takes the classic corn moonshine approach a little further without making it too complex and complicated.
The ingredients shouldn’t be hard to source, and even the enzyme can be ordered online should you opt to use it. Using the oak chips after distilling the spirit is definitely optional.
However, we’d strongly recommend going all the way since you’ll surely be surprised by what the extra effort will bring to your shine.
I'm so excited to prepare so many #recipes of #drinks, #cocktails, #Moonshine, #food - I'm ready to get down to work! #Moonshinerecipe
- 10 Lbs Cane Sugar
- 10 Lbs Cracked Corn
- 5 Gallons of Filtered Water
- 1 Tablespoon of Amylase Enzyme
- 4oz Toasted White Oak Chips
- 1 Small Packet of Turbo or Distillers Yeast
Equipment – See our guide here!
- Boiling Pot
- Fermentation Bucket
- Siphon Tube
- Airlock
- Immersion chiller (optional)
- Moonshine Still
- Pour 5 gallons of water into the pot and bring to 165 degrees F.
- Add 10 lbs of cracked corn, mix well, add amylase enzyme, and let sit for 90 minutes.
- Throw away all the kernels that are left floating on top.
- Add sugar and stir well until sugar is completely dissolved.
- Use an immersion chiller to cool the wort or let it cool down on its own, then transfer it to the fermenter.
- When the wort is at room temperature add yeast, cover the fermenter with a lid, and put the airlock in place.
- Keep the bucket at room temperature or slightly higher, in the shade, and let the wort ferment completely until no activity is seen in the airlock (should take about 2 weeks).
- Transfer the wash into the still using a siphon tube, leaving the yeast sediment and corn in the fermenter.
- Distill the wash as you normally would and collect all your hearts into a single jar.
- Add oak chips after the moonshine has cooled and let it sit for a couple of days to get more color and flavor.
You can substitute the siphon tube with a cheesecloth to strain the wash of the corn.
Optionally, you can replace the amylase enzyme with 1.5 of ordinary brewers’ or distillers’ barley malt added together with cracked corn.
The moonshine is good to drink right after distilling and cooling without the oak chips. However, to get more flavor and complexity it’s better to age the moonshine for a couple of days.

Do you turn the heat off when you add the corn and amylase? Then let it sit?
Hi Nathan,
yes, turn the heat off when you add the corn and amylase and let it sit.
