So, you own a horse or have a friend who owns one, and ever wonder if sweet feed moonshine is a thing? Well, even if you don?t, here?s a quick answer for you ? yes, you can use horse feed for making moonshine!
Since anything containing sugars or starches can be fermented into liquor, why must horse feed be an exception? Moreover, making a horse feed mash is fairly simple to make and ferment, compared to certain other types of mash.
So if you have some extra horse feed lying around at your farm ? don?t think twice and run that shine!

Ingredients
- 5 lbs of Sugar
- 10 lbs of Sweet Feed or Similar Horse Feed
- 5 Gallons of Water
- 1 Small Packet of Distillers Yeast
Equipment - See our guide here! - Boiling Pot
- Mixing Spoon
- Fermentation Bucket
- Thermometer
- Airlock
- Siphon Tube or Cheesecloth
- Moonshine Still
Instructions
- Pour one gallon of water into the boiling pot, bring to boil.
- Mix in 5 pounds of sugar until fully dissolved.
- Pour 4 gallons of water into the fermentation bucket, then add 10 pounds of sweet feed, mix well.
- Add the sugar syrup, let cool to room temperature, then add yeast.
- Close the lid tightly, put airlock in place, let ferment for about 10-14 days at room temperature.
- Separate the wash from the solids either by pouring through a cheesecloth or using a siphon tube, collect the was in the moonshine still.
- Distill as usual, manage cuts accordingly, collect the spirit, and jar for use later. (or now!)
Notes
Horse feed is likely to burn to the bottom of the pot of the still, so make sure to filter the wash well when transferring it from the fermenter.
Distillers yeast seems to be the best pick for this type of mash, however you can experiment with other types as well.
The flavor and proof of the spirit will largely depend on the type of still you?ll be using.

Another one that I have never heard of anyone marking is moonshine out of soybeans(meal) wandering if it’s a possibility?
The picture you have on here isn’t sweet feed. It’s all stock pellets
Sweet feed is cracked grains and molasses.
Used the sweet feed but its not fermenting. I put more yeast in this morning, hope that fixes it.
HAVING A PROBLEM FINDING A SWEET FEED THAT HAS MOLASSES CAN YOU RECOMMEND ONE
In canada at peavy mart they have a corn oats barley with molasses for around $24.00 for 20kg orover40lbs. That’s very inexpensive compared to buying grain in a brew shop. Have not tried it yet so don’t know how it will turn out. Also I don’t know but it may have to be milled.
Rural King or tractor supply…always have it.
Make sure you get a sweet feed that does Not contain pellets
