Google freeze distillation. While effective, I believe it is technically illegal for homebrewers, tho I'm not sure how anyone would find out :wink:

That sounds like a cool process.

It also sounds like it is bad to say freeze distillation and better to say freeze concentration (though I assume that the outcome is the same no matter what you "call it").

Most of my searching says that it is illegal, though some places say it isn't . . . I am betting that those people (those that say it isn't illegal) are correct only in it isn't illegal if you don't get caught. :roll:

Some people might give up beer for Lent. Some might give up everything else....

$4,500 for that? Imagine the setup you could build, including a step-in cooler, for that amount of scratch...
