I am looking for the cheapest way I can make and distil my own spirits. What should I buy?
For certain applications, some customers are simply after maximum yield, so what gets you the biggest bang for your buck?
You should go for the Turbo 500 system as the 25L washes are more economical.
Once you have the hardware, the highest yielding yeast is the Classic 8, which per 25L wash using 8kgs of sugar, should yield you 5.3L of 93% alcohol when you use 8kgs of sugar. You can buy in bulk and save with a 10 pack of Classic 8 yeast, carbon and clear.
With that pack, per batch, you get 5.3L of 93% alcohol which ends up being 8.6L of 40% alcohol which costs $24.70, or $2.87 per L of 40% alcohol.
If you have anymore questions please feel free to contact us and we can help!
