Tastes like a light japanese whisky with the sweetness of corn and molasses added in, cant really make out any fruit flavor though

found this guide on making a simple ghetto still with a tea kettle, the one in the guide is meant for essential oils so its got the botanical basket in the middle, not really necessary if you wanna make alcohol but you can keep it if you wanna do vapor infusion for some gins
figured id share it with you guys in case someone wants to make a simple little ghetto distiller

you wont be making any whiskey or rum with this of course cause its way too small for that but you can manage gin or absinthe with it, using some cheap vodka as the base alcohol
also a little reminder, try not to use rubber but only food grade silicone, rubber will leech into your booze, can create a bad flavor and you dont exactly wanna be drinking rubber

really the only materials you want touching your product are: stainless steel, copper, food grade silicone and glass
for solder, use tin solder, you obviously dont wanna have lead in there
and its good practice to first distill some vinegar to clean the thing out from inside, then to do a first sacrificial alcohol distillation which will probably taste bad cause of the leftover vinegar in the still

yeah and make sure the pressure cooker is made of stainless steel, not aluminium
once again, you only want stainless steel, copper, glass, and food grade silicone to touch your product

Don't Start Distilling Until You Learn These Safety Rules
If you're thinking of getting into home distilling, PLEASE make sure you understand these safety principles first. Distilling can be a very safe and fulfilling hobby, no less safe than smoking meat. But you do need to know these 9 rules before distillingβ¦
