it pretty much the same thing if i remember, methanol & isopropanol
or if you really wanna get prepper you could build a reflux distill, the first cup or so depending on your size is the same the thing. also it would have acetone it as well.
plus you can drink it while waiting for your doom. 95% ethanol burns so clean btw.
i have a nice reflux column i built out of 2 inch copper pipe. i cut it up into sections to put a new condenser section and glass chamber. i never got around to putting it back together. i use an empty beer keg as a still pot. i have a picture of it before i finished it.
nice, that is the kind of setup i would like to have. my pot is only 5 gallons. 10 gallons i think would be best.
I have been wanting to make a column like that for a long time now. the one thing i dont see see is how you keep it cold, you must have a coil inside, anyways. thanks for sharing
yea the very top section has a coil of 1/4" soft copper inside it to circulate water. i want to cut that part off though and put in this 2 inch condenser section i bought. i want to put it before the vapor makes the turn to see if it works better. it works good now but the small water line in the top there isnt much flow but i got over 180 proof out of it. plus ill be able to take it apart a bit for easier storage. mile high distilling has parts to convert kegs now. mine uses the original keg flange with the guts knocked out. its hard to clean i was going to get the keg parts from there and convert another one.
