Answers:
Moonshine making is illegal, and it's a time consuming process!. The first step is to ferment the beer, which can take up to a week on its own!. Once you have that, filter out as much of the solid matter as you possibly can (using a siphon is probably best, or a flask with a wide bottom and a narrow neck)!.

Then you need to put it all into a still!. A still is a big copper kettle that sits over heat and, at the top, has a copper, glass, or PVC tubing that goes all the way back down!. Often in a spiral pattern to get out the particulates!.

The contents of the still must be heated to about 180 or 190 degrees Fahrenheit, the point where the alcohol boils off but the water doesn't!. Then the alcohol vapor descends down the tube, cools off, and condenses into nearly pure ethanol!. You will probably need to use a thermometer to keep track of the temperature in the still, whether you use an electric heat source or an open flame!.

This is of course extremely dangerous, as pure alcohol is highly flammable and can easily burn down your house or shed if there's a leak or a spill!.

If you are really interested in drinking moonshine, I recommend just buying Everclear or Georgia Moon corn whisky, which is made the way the old moonshiners used to do it!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

you need distillation equipment that is fairly expensive and complicated!.!.!. not something to do unless you are planning on doing it a fair amount!. You also want to check with the autorities in your area, some places its still illegal!.

you can't make moonshine with just your bathtub, you can make wines, beer or other less powerful drinks, but moonshine has to have a way of separating the alcohol from the other stuff, which is what distillation is!.Www@FoodAQ@Com

1- Go to the liquor store
2- Buy "Corn Liquor"
3- Go Home
4- Drink it!.

It will be cheaper, safer and easier than trying to distill liquor with no understanding of the process or materials!.Www@FoodAQ@Com
