Frequently asked Questions
Is making my own spirits easy?
The Still Spirits process involves the fermentation of alcohol from a mix of nutrients, sugar and yeast to create a distillate. The distillate is then filtered with activated carbon to remove unwanted flavours. Pure clean alcohol is the result that in most cases is cleaner alcohol than that produced from more traditional sources.
How difficult is it to make spirits at home?
It is an easy 4 step process.
Firstly the sugar and water is turned into alcohol by fermenting with yeast. Secondly, you separate the purified alcohol from the water in the wash by distilling. Distillation is done by heating the wash in a still, boiling off the alcohol and condensing the vapour back into a liquid. Thirdly water down the alcohol to 40% then, use a carbon filter to filter out most of the remaining trace impurities. You will now have a clean spirit with no flavours or tastes.
Finally, simply add your favourite spirit or liqueur essence to make your favorite, scotch, bourbon rum or liqueur. There are hundreds to choose from
How much does it cost to make spirits at home?
A fraction of what it costs to buy spirits such as scotch bourbon rum gin and liqueurs. It will vary a little depending on the ingredients you use or the type of spirit you make. Most spirits you make will cost between $10 and $14 per 700ml bottle. Making spirits at home can become a brilliant hobby and you will be able to amaze your family and friends with the quality of the drinks you have produced.
How long does it take to make each batch of spirits?
Depending on the type of yeast and nutrients and the process you follow, you can be drinking your own home made spirits within 7 days.
