Moonshine is a well-known strong drink with a rich history. To make high-quality moonshine is not so simple. For beginners, “winemakers” do not immediately get a good drink - because of inexperience, they expel a cloudy liquid.

In the stages of production of moonshine, from the choice of raw materials to the distillation and purification of the resulting product, a large number of various components are involved. Making a drink will require careful attention to technology compliance.
What is the technology of making a drink?
Preparation of moonshine is a technological process in which many components take part immediately. At certain stages, it is necessary to carefully observe the temperature regime. The following stages of the process can be distinguished:
- preparation of raw materials;
- fermentation of the composition;
- distillation;
- purification of the resulting moonshine;
- giving moonshine aromatic, taste and color qualities.
A muddy-looking moonshine with a bad taste and smell is obtained as a result of a careless attitude to the requirements of manufacturing technology that are presented at each of its stages. If you use overgrown mash for moonshine, you get a drink with an unpleasant heavy odor. If boiling of liquid is allowed during distillation, the droplets at the outlet turn out cloudy.
If you follow all the stages of preparation, you can not get a particularly cloudy drink, but to improve the smell and taste it is better to conduct additional cleaning. There are many ways to do this.
