Re: Vodka from dairy

I have friends who like to drink my whey and cook with it, but I'm not a fan of the stuff. I'd rather feed it to pigs and chickens as they thrive on it. Livestock would probably still thrive on it after it has been fermented and distilled.

Re: Vodka from dairy

There is a lot of info available on the net that you haven't found yet. Because producing ethanol from whey isn't easy or economical at hobby scale and requires specialized yeasts, I doubt that you will get much help by asking for fermenting advice on forums like this one.
