What is Organic Grain Alcohol?

Organic Grain Alcohol is a type of alcohol produced from grains that were grown without pesticides, artificial fertilizers, food additives and ionizing radiation in order to follow the strict organic guidelines set by the European Union and the USDA. As the raw materials used in production are grown organically, the process of fermenting and distilling these grains into an alcohol must also follow the guidelines of the USDA. Grain alcohol is typically used to make other alcoholic beverages such as liqueurs or certain types of whiskey.

 

Applications and Use 

Organic Grain Alcohol is frequently used as a raw material for the production of other spirits and distillates. The reason for the use of this as a base alcohol is that it allows the taste of the natural botanicals to stay intact, thus not affecting the flavor of the spirit being produced.

In addition to its role in the production of other spirits, Organic Grain Alcohol has taken on roles in the food, non-alcoholic beverages, cosmetic, and pharmaceuticals industry due to its neutrality as a rectified spirit.

Can Organic Grain Alcohol be used in non-alcoholic beverages?

Yes, Organic Grain Alcohol can be used in non-alcoholic beverages as a flavor carrier or solvent for natural extracts and flavors. However, the alcohol content must be adjusted to comply with regulations regarding the maximum allowable alcohol content in non-alcoholic beverages.

Can Organic Grain Alcohol be used for medicinal purposes?

Organic Grain Alcohol can be used for medicinal purposes as it is a common solvent used in the extraction of medicinal compounds from herbs and plants. It is also used as a preservative and disinfectant in some medicinal products. 

Additional information
HOW ITS MADE The production of Organic Grain Alcohol is produced from organic grains as well as follows the strict guidelines for organic foods that is set by the USDA. It is made by distilling organic grain that has been fermented. STEP ONE Collection of Grain During this step, the grain that will be used as the base raw material for production will be collected and prepped for further processes. STEP TWO Fermentation Once the grain is chosen, it’s time to begin milling. Milling refers to the biological process in which the kernels are ground into a meal, which is a form of flour. This process uses starches, which are long chains of sugar molecules that classify starches as carbohydrates. STEP THREE Distillation Once milling is complete, liquefaction begins. This is the process in which water is added to the milled kernels to make ‘slurry,’ which is then heated to break up the long starch molecules chained together into smaller pieces. Alpha-amylase is an enzyme that is added to this mixture to speed up, or catalyze, the breakdown of starch molecules. STEP FOUR Rectification and Redistillation During this step, the starch molecules that were previously broken down into smaller pieces are now broken down into simple sugar glucose. This process uses the enzyme glucoamylase to catalyze this reaction.   Certificates ISO 9001, ISO 22000, Lloyd’s Register, EU Organic, USDA Organic
