Crushed up potatoes/wheat/barley/other starchy base dumped into a large bin full of water. Add sugar and yeast, cover and leave to ferment for a week or so.
Drain off the liquid and distill to get the alchohol.

Many years ago we used the following:Originally posted by Moscow Mule View PostHTF do you make schnapps at home? I want to have a go now...
Ingredients:
the fruit of one melon
1 bag of brown sugar
1 pair of womens tights
1 bowl
1 door with handle
Mix the fruit and sugar together and put into one leg of the tights
Place bowl at bottom of door under door handle
Hang tights from door handle so foot of tights is over bowl
Wait some weeks and the resulting liquid is a horrible yet pleasantly soporific brandy style drink“Brexit is having a wee in the middle of the room at a house party because nobody is talking to you, and then complaining about the smell.”Comment
