  • 3:00 Yes Sir your horse is diabetic.

  • @43932 the distillate from beer is nothing like whisky

  • @Trillios you are correct, the prof made a mistake

  • @pompeyjim12 yes of course you can, glycerine/glycerol is perfectly fine to drink and is often added (in fact in some places it's a legal requirement to add something similar) to pure spirits such as vodka

  • @Surtak yes, it's produced if you have pectin in the wash. Not poorly executed fermentation, if you make cider you WILL have methanol, if you make fruit wines you will have methanol. If you use sucrose, glucose, fructose then no methanol.

  • @salerio61 bear? WTF BEER!!!

  • @unvergebeneid It's disgusting, and it's really, really hard to clean the condenser after as well. Bear contains hops, hops contain a very bitter oil, the oil distills off very well with the ethanol and sticks everywhere and is the most foul, bitter taste you can imagine.

    Whisky/ey is produced from essentially bear but without the other stuff added, just fermented barley

  • @GerryRich100 no it wouldn't. I've drunk 96% ethanol. The azeotrope limit is 96% not 98%. Either way it doesn't kill you. You can purchase stuff called Everclear at 96%

  • How and why does Alcohol make you stupid and get you drunk? :s
