Book Description
How to Build a Moonshine Still is a fascinating guide for beginners, which explains the important issues involved in building an alcohol distiller. Making Moonshine for human consumption is illegal, and because of this it was traditionally made and moved about at night; hence the name Moonshine. Distillation could take place anywhere, with old car radiators and rusty buckets being used to make Moonshine Stills. This partly explains why it has a reputation for being so dangerous to make, as well as dangerous to drink! The book explains the building of a Moonshine Still in a holistic way, with information on a range of important topics such as: Key legal and safety information: This includes a guide to permits and a breakdown of the kinds of issues you need to familiarize yourself with. A simple explanation of how Stills work: This includes an easy to follow explanation of how a distiller works so that you can better understand its parts and how to build one. A guide to the types of Still used to make Moonshine A step-by-step explanation of how to build a simple Pot Still: Including the various parts, the equipment you would need, and also how each part is used during distillation. Some traditional Moonshine recipes Also included are some interesting facts and tips to give you a flavor of what making Moonshine is like, and the reasons why it is such a dangerous practice. We hope you enjoy learning more about building a Moonshine Still!
