I have wanted to make potato vodka for a long time. Why I'm not entirely sure, I guess I just like to try different things. It turns out potatoes vodka tastes great. A little different, but interesting and unique. This new video using Sweet Potato is even better: If you want to make your own you can follow this recipe: 20 kg (44 lb) of high starch, or roasting potatoes. Brushed not peeled. 5.5 kg (12 lb) of crushed malted barley Plenty of water (present to drink water) 3 tablespoons of bakers yeast (I used “Angel“) Put the potatoes into a large pot and steam them for 45 min (or until tender and easily crushable) Mash well Add 8-10L of water ( 2.1 - 2.6 gal) Mix well and ensure all larger pieces of potato are crushed Slowly mix in the malted barley Gently bring the temp up to 63 c (146 f) Let mash for one hour (or until you pass the starch test) Cool to pitching temp 25c ( 77 f) Pitch the yeast and ferment at 25c Let ferment go until fermented out. Optionally let the ferment sour slightly by waiting another 1-3 days. Strip distil the whole batch (you will either need to strain the wash first or use a suitable still to distil on the grain) Distil the low wines with 3-4 plates or reflux still. Make appropriate cuts and proof down to your desired abv/proof.
