Make your own Ethanol fast and easily!

Need some high-proof alcohol but can't buy it in your area?
Get some 40% alcohol, clear or dark, and a Countertop Water Distiller with Digital Temperature Controller, you can find a link to one in the description. BE SURE TO ONLY DO THIS IN A WELL-VENTILATED AREA SUCH AS OUTDOORS OR UNDER A FUMEHOOD.

Remove the top of the unit and attached a food-grade silicone tube to the output spout and attached it to a Condenser. Then attach the tubing to the condenser to a cooler with ice water in it, and use on a pump to pump water through the condenser.

Pour your alcohol into the distiller and turn it on at 95C

It'll take about an hour and when it's done be sure to turn off the pump first so you don't accidentally make a mess with the water.

The first run tested at about 80% with 10% or so in the leftovers of the distiller.

You can also do this with Whisky or other brown liqueurs and it will come out just as clear. I mixed the two leftovers together and distilled them at 90C to get the rest out as they still had about 10% alcohol. Finally, I took all the batches and distilled them at 90 to increase the final alcohol content. In the end, I was left with 85% proof alcohol that I could have run another time to get higher but I was happy with this percentage. You can get as high as 95% with this method but not higher as it will start to absorb water from the air around it.

DO NOT DRINK THIS STRAIGHT. High-proof alcohol is not safe to drink on its own. This is for use in making tinctures, etc.

This channel is fukin gold. I love how he just gets to the point, no bs, no hellos, no askin for shit, just pure information. top quality content man!

[Ryan-ojfy]

You from Canada my dude? That’s actually what we drank here when we were young and didn’t have much money. Can confirm it’s some of the strongest, cheapest stuff around 😂

[billmalin]

You sir are a gift. Thank you very much.

[bond]

Good info brother I didn’t know it was that easy

[bruhmoment]

Sir, what size silicone tubing is that, is there like a standard size for condenser tubing? Edit: also love your channel imma use some of your knowledge to hopefully start a medical marijuana business when I’m older. Your awesome.

[robang]

There are two sizes for each condenser? Which ones? The condenser sizing is options in milimeter and the condenser adapter has two sizes on Amazon? Please help. Thank you so much

[MK_ultramaxing]

cool vid but why not a reflux condenser?

[samusaran]

Well I already have everything in this video except for a pump, ironically. Any particular suggestions for one? Or should I just go on amazon and buy any cheap water pump? I am a newly graduated chemist so if I should spend a good amount of money on a water pump that will help me in the future and you know of one then let me know please. Btw thanks for the video.

Is 100% of the alcohol created useable or is it like making moonshine where you’re supposed to discard some?

[sachithfernando]

Destroying all those Expensive alcohol to make, cheap ethanol kills me
😂😂😂😂😂

[nemopatrickson]

I'm looking for alternatives to gasoline. I saw a video where moonshiners mixed 20% gas and 80% 190 proof shine and it worked in a motercycle and a tractor. This is an easy method, but also expensive, more so than just gas because at the cheapest you're spending $20 a bottle. IDK about booze much cheaper than that. One thing about fuel is you don't have to worry about blinding yourself cuz you're putting it in a car, so maybe get something a distillery was about to throw away?

[skrillamanch]

Is that the stuff you used to purge your dirty carts and jars?

[SoggyCashew]

Ok, first off you the man!!! Second I have a cannabis tincture made with Everclear. I want to be able to reclaim my Everclear and make FECO. What's the process to be able to reclaim my alcohol....

[greg]

What’s the lowest proof alcohol can you use to create a tincture

[dfranchi]

Does this actually work can you actually get it up to 95?

[djsavage]

Haven’t seen anything from you in a while this is impressive the only problem is I can get 99.9% alcohol here but in order to make good Rick Simpson oil do you need about 190% which is illegal in California so maybe you can show how to increase from 80% to 190% for those of us were trying to make Rick Simpson oil.

[OfCorse]

You don't need anything but the still. It has a condenser built in.

[Nynexx]

this is not an easy way you need to have a all that equipment.

[ntac]

OMG! This is a terrible idea. The plastic parts and silicone tubing will leech pretty nasty chemicals into your hot alcohol vapor. The whole vapor path needs to be steel, copper, or glass. There's also a massive fire risk here unless you are sure that your seals are perfectly tight. Go get a real still, or better yet make your own.
