Cool.
Do you make the alcohol for preserving, burning or drinking.
i am sure that i would distill it and burn it for cooking fuel if i did brewing

Now thats an idea! On my 6th batch and i have 3 demijohns! I might try for the burning! because i was doing it for drinking! I'll do some research into distilling for fuel! i'm not sure about preserving, would thta be the same? i think i'll research that aswell! any more dehydrating vids to come?
I'm sure these are hypothetical discussions since distilling alcohol is illegal in the UK .... as far as I'm aware anyway, I will stand to be corrected. I might look into the water still myself but will have to save me pennies!

Yes, do Research the legality of alcohol distillation (licenses etc that you might need) in your area before even thinking of going ahead. I don't want to put you on the wrong path
and yes, i will be getting more dehydration videos done on my http://www.youtube.com/user/getmeoffgrid videoblog

distilling of anykind is illegal without a licence its not even worth researching after production it is tested and duty charged! along with having to keep records of the process from start/finish time to how much produced!
picked up 4 pallets for the fire and set my brewing going in 2 jars a red and white youngs ready mix!
Got another sack of potatoes; got two LED head torches; got a sack of layers mash; got warm boots; emptied compost bins onto veg plot; got extra coal. Phew.
