There is not a lot of information on the web about how to make vodka from potatoes depsite it beaing a relativley simple task. So this lens will take you through the exciting process of making your own alcohol. The process can also be adapted for making serveral other types of alcohol such as brandy but we will stick to vodka for this lens.

Potato Vodka Making Process 

First you need to peel the potatoes, you will need around 1kg of potatoes for a litre of vodka.

Next thing is to chop the potatoes into small pieces, around 1cm cubes should be fine.

Next you will need to use a pressure cooker and put all of the potato cubes in the pot with quite a lot of water, more than enough to cover the potatoes.

Please be careful as pressure cookers are very dangerous if you dont know how to use them then ask someone who does.

Now once the potato is disolved into the water let it cool down and strain the potato leaving loads of potato juice which will become your potato vodka.

The next part is to distill the potato juice and get single distilled vodka. Really you need a distillery but if this is home made then you will need to make a distillery.

Not that difficult really, the basic idea is to heat the juice and capture the steam and collect it which forms your potato vodka.

So you just need to find a big pot, with a lid that connects to a pipe and a container that can collect the vodka.

Once that is complete, you can distill it a few more times using the same process and you will end up with the best and cheapest fall over juice imaginable. But I hold no responsibility for what you do with it. Remeber to drink responsibly.
