It's a rabbit-hole from which there is no escape...trust me on this...

Nice, Rick. That Bookers is probably my all-time favorite.

Really sweet collection there. I love that scale, too.

I looked into a still and found it's not legal in the US. I thought home distilling was allowed in small quantities, but it isn't.

I can home brew 100 gallons of beer and or wine per year ( 200 gallons if more than one adult ) but no distilled spirits.

IIRC, it depends on state...... and for human consumption, you still need to pay the stamp tax, along with all of the paperwork. Now, small engine fuel......

There are a lot of the small home all-electric breweries that have distillation caps available. YMMV.

IIRC, it depends on state......

While individuals of legal drinking age may produce wine or beer at home for personal or family use, Federal law strictly prohibits individuals from producing distilled spirits at home
