Re: how to make methanol / ethanol and still Sun, 18 September 2005 23:51 Go to previous messageGo to previous message
the size of un-regulated brewing and distilling vessels is limited by law - i think once you have more than 20 litre of mash brewing/distilling then you need a permit and you will pay tax (exise? spelling?) on the goods made.

Is why the home brewing/distilling shops tend not to have large stills for sale.

Anyway, methanol/ethanol are hardly the best replacements for petrol? they burn with less efficiency, they have higher output of carbon and CO2 than petrol for the same amount of evergy released, they have high costs of production, they have shorter shelf life, are hydroscopic (plus water will separate in petrol but will mix with ethenol/methanol) so they have greater handling and storage costs and requirements, ...

If you want to make a still - focus on making a decent vodka or scotch. Very Happy

i can help with taste-testing if needed.
