Hi All
Just in case any one has any doubts as to the legality of still's such as ones used for the production of Ethanol for drinking which is the same as Ethanol for fuel here is a link to the act which should be read carefully
(Sorry guys the link is not working at present will investigate and have another go shortly)
The bottom line is that about 5 litres capacity is the limit that one can have without declaring it to the excise people
It is a bit hard to decipher wether that is 5 litres of alcohol remaining in the bottom after distillation which will mean a vessel of about 32 odd litres at 15% alcohol content in the brew or 5 litres capacity of brew
I am not going to elaborate on that, not qualified
It is a moot point nevertheless I can guess what most people would follow
For a reading on a good discussion of the merits of all this you may visit http://www.homedistiller.org/
click on introduction on the left hand side and down to legalities and read about the topic in the section relating to Australia, or wherever there is a comment about your country
Cheers
Chris
