Putting older posts here. Going to try to keep the novice forum pruned about 90 days work. The 'good' old stuff is going to be put into appropriate forums.

What's the highest safe alcohol percentage to drink straight

Post by dslrocks10 »

In the FAQ it says "90% (or 95%) ethanol produced from a reflux column still is very dangerous, and must not be drunk without reducing the strength of the ethanol." http://homedistiller.org/forum/viewtopi ... =15&t=5166

What is it even talking about and how is it justified??

I've heard of people drinking everclear in america all the time, having a shot of 95% straight. How is it dangerous?
Does it mean the average person would be dumb enough to drink more than they need to get drunk? (like 100ml I guess)
