I’m from the dirty south lol right outside of Atlanta. Georgia might be a little racist and weed isn’t legal here, but you would never know that when you are in city limits. ATL is the center for black culture and people blow gas walking down the street. Unless you start acting a fool, you will not have a bad time visiting Atlanta. Its a fun place, no doubt there are some rough areas though.

We love football down here, my second favorite thing in life (after the dog and before the girl) is University of Georgia football. And now with Kirby Smart we’re consistently one of the best teams in the country and always in the top 5 recruiting classes (usually we’re just the beat but these days recruits act like prima donnas with all the pageantry around it and I’ve stopped following the recruiting process as much).

I GOT A NEW JOB LAST WEEK HYFR. Already have gone back to the gym 4 times since I got the job. Before that I haven’t gone since February. Goodbye depression, hello gain city.

And if I could add a fourth thing, my dick is huge. Like really really big. There’s basically no point in even trying to prove it on here because it’s just so big. Like when I’m sexing up girls there always like man you’ve got such a big dick holy guacamole. I’m getting a holy guacamole from about 9 out of 10 girls I’m sexing up. Don’t ask for pictures though I don’t want to scare anybody. Just PLEASE take my word for it. So big. Please someone just think it’s so big. Holy guacamole.
I can tell you from personal experience ( mid 80’s ) stay away from MLK drive if you don’t live there it’s easy to die there .

I lived on south cob dr. for about 4 years

2 out of 3ain’t bad

I would like to get to know this community a bit better. Some great folks here and some quite intelligent ones as well.

Making good relationships with people is what its all about.

Il start.

I have never been in jail (even though people think I look like I have) in fact I haven't ever had as much as a parking ticket in my life.

I own my own business (gold refining)

I am a federally certified Sleep Expert (yes that is a thing) I was a consultant for Sleep number. Basically I crunched data from they're system and calculated what quality of sleep people were actually getting. My understanding of all sleep related things is extensive.

What about you folks?
1) I’m generally apolitical. It’s not that I don’t care, to the contrary I care very much, it’s that I view politics mostly as theater. 2) Gourmet cooking and dining, IN MY HOME 3) I love old school hash and dream of being able to grow fields of the dank so I can only smoke/eat Hashish.

Yep, that's how applejack was originally made: fermented cider, frozen, ice removed. Problem with that technique is that methanol, ketones and other undesirable compounds are concentrated and remain
We used to use 2 kegs of a double bock and freeze. Then pull off the remaining beer into a sixtel. It made some really awesome stuff. Nutty, plum was the flavors......very strong. Like a desert beer.

I got into home distillation around 20 yrs ago. I bought a still and at the same time a fermentation setup; the still was delivered, the ferm setup was backordered and finally arrived 3 weeks later. I was itching to use the still so I went out and bought 10 gal of cheap boxed wine and distilled it. I was amazed at how much methanol and acetone came out before the ethanol. I ended up with over a liter(quart) of methanol/acetone. Turned out that it was an excellent parts cleaner and degreaser. When distilling a mash made from barley (beer) or sugar water I got much less acetone/methanol. The wine (esp cheap wine) was fermented originally with the stems and skins hence cellulose being fermented. A common name for methanol is wood alcohol. Wood is cellulose and lignin

Your firsts will have the highest concentration. Methanol has a boiling point around 150. Did you pull everything off and use it that way? Usually you don't unless you want cleaner like you made. And yes it is a great cleaner.

Yes I did, I wanted the "cleaner" as well, why not? I stopped collecting it when distilling for scotch or pure EtOH because as I said, those mashes don't produce enough to be worth saving. Here is my rig, I've made further mods but this was it a few years back

Wouldn't you want to separate the firsts middles and tails? Then you have a cleaner a drink and I don't know what to do with tails.
