If you'd like to try your hand at homemade whiskey, corn whiskey is a great one to start with. You'll need to create a corn mash with a few basic ingredients (like crushed corn, malted barley, yeast, and sugar). Strain the liquid and distill it in a pot still. With a little time and effort, you'll soon be enjoying your own smooth, corn whiskey. Ingredients
5 gallons (19 liters) water
8.5 pounds (3.85 kg) crushed corn (also called flaked maize)
1.5 pounds (0.7 kg) crushed malted barley
1 tablespoon (14 g) active dry bread yeast
1 teaspoon sugar
1/2 cup (120 ml) warm water (for the yeast starter)
