Alcohol ... How to breed it yourself at home? This question is especially interesting for those people who set themselves the goal of not purchasing a vodka product in a store, but making it at home.
It should be noted that such a “chemical” problem is quite simple, but some knowledge of this science will nevertheless be useful for its solution. Indeed, to dilute alcohol to 40 degrees, it is necessary not only to mix it with ordinary drinking water (as a result, the total volume of the mixture will decrease), but to do it in the right and correct proportions. Otherwise, arbitrary mixing will lead to an arbitrary result, which can adversely affect human health while drinking the resulting drink. In addition, the safety of the final alcohol product depends not only on the ratio of liquids, but also on the quality of the ingredients themselves.
Alcohol: how to breed at home
Necessary utensils and ingredients:
- high-quality drinking alcohol - 1.25 l;
- soft purified water - 1.35 l;
- 40% glucose solution - 40 ml;
- vinegar essence - 1 small spoon;
- glass container (you can take a three-liter jar) - 1 pc.
It should be especially noted that for self-preparation of a vodka product it is necessary to purchase only high-quality drinking alcohol. How to breed it, consider a little lower. By the way, in order to choose such an ingredient correctly, it should be remembered that, depending on the degree of purification, alcohol is divided into:
- extra, or 96.5%;
- higher purification, or 96.2%;
- first grade, or 96%;
- luxury, 69.3%;
- medical.
How to dilute alcohol with water
In a glass container (it is better to take a clean three-liter jar), pour 1.25 liters of 96% alcohol. It is advisable to do this through a large funnel. Next, 40 ml of a 40% glucose solution must be added to the liquid . It can be easily purchased at any pharmacy. Then, add 1 small spoon of vinegar essence to the mixture . After this, a three-liter jar should be filled with ordinary drinking water. However, it should be noted that such a liquid should be very soft and contain a minimum of salts. An ideal option for diluting alcohol is spring water. But if you don’t have one, then you can use a tap, which has been filtered through cleaning devices.
Alcohol: how to breed before getting vodka
To get a good alcoholic drink and improve its taste to diluted alcohol, it is recommended to add additional ingredients that will make the product softer. These additives include the following:
- fresh liquid honey;
- citric acid;
- granulated sugar;
- any fruit juice (such as orange);
- fresh milk.
Surprisingly, some people add baking soda and various oils to this drink. However, we do not recommend doing this, because after consuming such a vodka product a person may experience severe headaches, nausea and vomiting.
After drinking alcohol is diluted with water, it must be insisted for a while (2-3 days). If this time is not there, then the mixture is recommended to shake well and cool.
