Alcotec 23% Turbo Yeast

Product Description

Home moonshine making has taken another step forward. With the new Alcotec 23% turbo pure, it is now possible to break the magical 20% alcohol barrier by fermentation alone. This will take your reflux still to new heights! The new Alcotec 23% turbo yeast is based around a completely new class of recipes containing activated carbon, present during fermentation. Together with new yeast strains & a different kind of trace minerals, we are now able to make more alcohol from a fermentation than ever before & when used with quality distillation equipment for making moonshine, like a good reflux still such as our http://home-brew-online.myshopify.com/collections/equipment/products/smartstill-table-top-distiller"> Smart Still
- it will produce more alcohol than ever before. Forget what the home distillation handbook says about maximum alcohol. With Alcotec 23%, the worlds first true above-20%-alcohol turbo yeast, you can now push the alcohol yield above all previous limits, especially if you use a http://home-brew-online.myshopify.com/collections/equipment/products/smartstill-table-top-distiller"> Smart Still. Contents: Active dried yeast, nutrient, activated carbon. Instructions: 25 litres of 23% alcohol in 9 days Mix hot & cold water to a liquid temperature of 40 °C in a sterilized http://home-brew-online.myshopify.com/collections/equipment/products/beer-fermenting-bin-25ltr-with-lid-handle-grommet">fermenter (capable of holding minimum 27 litres). Adjust volume to exactly 18 litres. Add 10.5 kgs of http://home-brew-online.myshopify.com/collections/ingredients/products/youngs-brewing-wine-making-sugar-1kg"> Brewing Sugar (Dextrose Mononydrate) & mix well until liquid is completely clear. Do not use any other sugars. Add contents of all three sachets (yeast, nutrient & activated carbon) to the liquid. NOTE: shake the carbon sachet before opening to make sure there are no lumps, especially near the edges of the sachet. After 3 hours
- gently stir in the foam/froth (prevents foaming over later). Leave to ferment at room temperature (18 °C
- 24 °C) for 7 days (until no more activity
- can take 1-2 extra days if cool temp). NOTE: If ambient temperature is above 24 °C your fermentation will stick prematurely. NOTE: Always consider the risk of leaks, frothing etc when choosing where to put fermenter. Add a good fining agent (http://home-brew-online.myshopify.com/collections/spirit-liqueur-making/products/alcotec-24-turboklar"> Alcotec Turbo Klar or similar) & leave to clear for 2 days (the wash does not have to be completely clear for distilling) or longer if you plan to use it without distilling. NOTE: It is important to use http://home-brew-online.myshopify.com/collections/spirit-liqueur-making/products/alcotec-24-turboklar">turbo clear, otherwise unwanted substances absorbed during fermentation will be released again during boiling. Siphon off & your wash is ready for distilling with a http://home-brew-online.myshopify.com/collections/equipment/products/smartstill-table-top-distiller"> Smart Still or other use. Stacking: Fermenting Larger volumes (over 25 ltrs) Don't even think about it. This turbo is so extreme, it is optimized for 25 litres & it will overheat grossly if you try to ferment a larger volume A much better option is using http://home-brew-online.myshopify.com/collections/spirit-liqueur-making/products/alcotec-48-turbo-yeast"> Alcotec 48. This turbo will handle stacking to some extent, but the recipe still takes a certain amount of tweaking (suggestion is to add max 6-7 kgs of http://home-brew-online.myshopify.com/collections/ingredients/products/youngs-brewing-wine-making-sugar-1kg">brewing sugar per 25 litres & don't ferment over 100 litres). You may still get some residual sugar but the overall result will be better.
