Home Distiller

You (barely) resist the urge to collect bottles from the side of the road

You think there's a market for these shirts?

I agree with your point - Unless your name's Jim Beam, probably best not to tell the world about the still in your back yard.

I dumped turbo yeast pretty quick (mainly because the result tasted like methanol and fire). I'll give the egg whites a go on my next run. Putting the wash in the fridge isn't really an option, so long as I want to eat

In Australia the distillation of alcohol is illegal, however, A friend of a friend of mine was talking with a state prosecutor or similar, and his exact words were:
"We don't care what the f#*k you put in your still, just don't sell it and don't blow yourself up."

Central Brisbane - Christ there's a few of you around here

Yeah, I know that turbo yeasts and stills are considered the devil around these parts - I didn't know whether this extended to turbo clears. Thanks for the info.

Hi guys,
Do any of you use clearing agents such as turbo clear before you run a batch?
Could they add off flavours or have any other negative effects?
