We want to produce alcohol with chestnut but chestnut is starch substance and we need to make chestnut liquid use to some beverage 😊

Chestnuts are high in carbohydrates which can be made fermentable by adding enzymes like amylase, the powerful being the amyloglucosidase to convert it into glucose .
Adding distillers yeast or champagne yeast to the wort or slurry of enzyme treated chestnuts puree will ferment it to 15 % alcohol at least which can be extracted by fractional distillation.
