Worldwide, there is a growing interest in distillation by those who enjoy making alcoholic beverages, essential oils, botanical extracts and perfumes. We have read books that purport to describe how distillation works, but got it wrong in whole or in part, and some that detail how to build a particular type of still and operate it but which are based more on myth than sound scientific and engineering knowledge. We came to the conclusion that there was a crying need for a book that gives a detailed account of the entire subject, avoiding old wives' tales and dealing entirely in verifiable facts. We were proud to have recently received this tribute: I read your book. Excellent work! As a teacher of Chemistry I must admit that this book is truly a teaching book of the highest caliber. It is a proud member of my library! MCThere has never been a book published on the subject of home distillation as comprehensive as this.Every aspect is covered, from first principles to a clear explanation of the science behind it all.High yield fermentation techniques are described in detail, offering flexibility with efficiency.The design of every type of small still is examined, revealing many ways in which they may be improved.Precise details of how to extract essential oils and scents from plant materials are given, and methods compared.The data listed in the Appendix on Weights & Measures has been updated to reflect the latest research figures, and the Appendix on Vapor management has been expanded to examine the technique more closely. Furthermore, a new Appendix on Air-Cooling has been added.No Myths, no guesswork.Just tested and proven facts and designs.
