Slow Cooker Apple Pie Moonshine
In my husbands family this recipe forCrock-Pot Apple Pie Moonshine is a traditional Christmas Eve beverage. My husbands grandfather has made this mixed drink, or flavored beverage, for years and all the men in the family sit and gather in the basem*nt laughing, telling jokes and sipping on this drink.
It is also given as gifts to all the adults in the family so that we all can sip and savor it all year long.
Once the jars are open you can keep this drink in the refrigerator to drink cold (I think it tastes better cold) and will last all year long (or longer).
Please remember that this is a strong alcoholic adult beverage and it goes without saying that you should keep it away from children and of course, drink responsibly.
Our family uses Everclear which is 195 proof (95% alcohol) which means it is STRONG. Everclear is not always available everywhere, so if you cannot find it at your local liquor store then feel free to use another strong proof alcohol such as vodka.
This recipe makes about 105 shot sized servings. And are these Mason Jar Shot Glasses are PERFECT for serving in!

If the container is sealed and kept in a secure location (assuming that the manufacturer properly distilled the moonshine), it won't hurt you to take a sip to evaluate the flavor. Although technically safe to drink, moonshine that “goes bad” will have an unpleasant taste.
Unopened flavored moonshine can last for years, un-refrigerated and away from sunlight. Like plain moonshine, flavored moonshine is best enjoyed while stored in a glass bottle. However, once opened, flavored moonshine only lasts 3-6 months in the refrigerator.
Apple cider often has sediment in it, so do not be alarmed if it looks cloudy. Let sit undisturbed for at least 5 days, although I consider a week the minimum. The product must remain cool during aging and storage thereafter.
These dangerous bacteria may also produce the toxin that causes botulism, a type of food poisoning. When the process isn't monitored correctly, a potentially good batch of moonshine can turn deadly.
Moonshine does go bad, and you can determine this by taking a small sip which will have a foul taste or taste worse than you expected. Drinking moonshine that is old or contaminated can result in adverse effects. Here are some moonshine effects: Seizures.
To age the moonshine, you can store it in a barrel. This will give it a smooth, mellow flavor. You can also age it in a carboy or glass jug. If you do this, make sure to use an airtight seal to prevent the moonshine from oxidizing.
Glycerine is used to smooth and mellow spirits and add some modest body. If you think your distillate is a little sharp or has a bit too much of that 'alcohol burn,' adding a few drops of glycerine can reduce the harshness, add mellowness and improve mouthfeel.
One of summer's finest gifts is the luscious, juicy peach. And the only way to improve on nature's perfection is to soak a bunch of them in Ole Smoky's® White Lightin' Moonshine. Dip in and grab one of those succulent, moonshine-infused peaches and experience a sweet little slice of heaven.
How do I determine the proof of apple pie moonshine? You can use a proofing hydrometer, which measures the alcohol content of the moonshine. By taking a reading with the hydrometer, you can calculate the proof of the moonshine and make adjustments as needed.
Either way—it depends on your preference and the type of drink. For example, you might drink straight moonshine at room temperature. Or, warm up some apple pie moonshine for a toasty, comforting drink on a cold fall or winter night. You can also drink it as a chilled co*cktail with ginger ale or iced tea.

There's two possibilities, one is that you had some junk left in the still (what is your still made from?) or you ran the boiler too hard and the product bubbled up and "puked" where the mash bubbles and goes up the still. Running thick or sugary washes often boil over.
Best way is to filter the alcohol using carbon. This will remove some of the flavours and taste and make the alcohol taste cleaner We have several filters which are available. There are the Spiritworks Carbon Filter, the In Line and the EZ filter.
When apple pie has gone bad, it may start to grow mold, typically a fuzzy white or green substance appearing on the surface. Additionally, if the pie has a sour, off smell, then it's a sure sign that it's spoiled. The taste can also be off, sour, or simply not as fresh.
After several weeks, depending on storage conditions, cider develops a slight fizz that is the result of natural fermentation. According to cider makers, many older folks like fizzy cider while younger consumers do not. Regardless, it's safe to drink, but may contain traces of alcohol.
If the cider is supposed to be sweet, but you taste a more sour, vinegary taste, then the apple cider has turned bad. Another way of determining if the fermentation process has started is to notice if the color of the cider has turned darker, or if a film is starting to develop.
