Indian Head Corn Meal Whiskey is a great mash recipe that even a novice distilling enthusiast can tackle with no problem.
The ingredients are easy to obtain and it doesn?t add any additional steps compared to an ordinary grain mash. Just make sure you mix the corn and malted barley well, use sanitize equipment, and let the mash ferment completely.
Even a novice ‘shiner should get a great tasting corn meal moonshine as a result, and that?s the best part about this recipe.

Notes
Using a darker type of malt gives more flavor and color to the wash, but avoid using roasted or caramel malts as these carry no enzymes necessary to break down the starches.
If needed, add a teaspoon of amylase enzyme to ensure good starch conversion.
Depending on still type your efficiency and spirit proof may vary.
