Thanks to this thread getting me curious, I now know more about stills and distilling than I needed to know. The internet can be dangerous.
Say, for instance, you searched for "reflux still" ...

That's nothin', I spent the better part of a semester learning about distillation. I've had the moonshine bug ever since. Still have my textbooks

Rumor has it someone tried to use the school's lab-scale still (~15 ft glass column still) for 'shine once. Knowing what chemicals we put through that thing, I can't imagine anyone with a good head on their shoulders would try that.
