I dont have a flow chart but what i heard is that they let Yeast feed on different stuff like potatoes, sugar cane, wheat, corn, until it becomes intoxicated and dies.. They take the liquid which is formed and sift it onto vats and add fillers and flavors to the alcohol for different types of alcohol like Rum , Vodka, tequila, and beer. Depending on the concentrations they may add water (for beer) or add flavorings and sugar to Rum, etc.. Thats all i know!!

it is the fermented sugars in the wheat,corn,rice or berries that you use you will have to let them sour first.
