Same here. The problem isn't the nature of the substance, but the quantity needed.
If there is a leak and lack of ventilation, you just can't stop the alcohol from burning.
Fire is by far the main concern here, that's why it is illegal. Too many fires from kitchen labs.
I have friends I know have the copper apparatus to do so, which they do in hiding. They make whiskey from beer bottoms lol

I don't recall seeing this posted in the thread.
Click on the map to see what the fate of your state looks like based on the modelling and current measures that have been implemented. Quite concerning...

You're telling me you're okay with letting 12,000 people off at Fort Lauderdale taking commercial flights all over the country and world after being exposed to COVID-19? All the while, they don't pay any taxes here in the USA by registering their ships in the Bahamas?
They have the money to take care of these people. Again, they bought 200 test kits where the county could not. No sympathy. They have the resources.
This would be a disaster for South Florida who already has strained resources. It would make us worse than NYC overnight.
Agreed. Fuck these cruise ships, their decisions to make money and their ignorant customers deciding to take a vacation during a global pandemic. The virus has been in the media since January. They can be quarantined at sea until this shit gets sorted out and enjoy their extended vacation.

koods said: Banning cruise lines from docking is absurd. The US is now the most infected country. A couple hundred known cases is totally immaterial to outcomes.
Wtf? Really? Koods wants to constantly post about how bad the virus is and how bad the president is doing, but then says it's okay for these people to dock and drive around the country or get into airplanes, without any sort of plan of testing etc?
This link below has a video only a minute long that uses cell phone data to demonstrate how such a small localized population can disperse around the country/world and potentially spread the virus. It's fucking crazy to think these people should be allowed to just dock without any sort of procedure.

Damn man. You're a total joke. Such a defeatist thing to say. All precautions necessary should be taken to slow this as soon as possible.
Theres people working long, depressing hours at the hospitals because ignorant fucks ignoring the quarantine and you want to say some dumb shit like this?
Don't complain anymore then. You'll just show how contradiction you really are with your fake liberal ideas.

I’ve just studied the modeling. Once you have significant community spread travel bans are useless. Travel bans are meant to prevent infection from taking root in a community. They are useless once a disease has taken root. Travel bans from the United States into countries where there are very few cases is still an excellent strategy.

Just look at the modeling. It seems like it would help but it doesn’t have any material effect on outcomes.

Watch this video from 12:30
The takeaway is limiting travel between communities has little effect once communities have entrenched infections

Coronavirus could travel 27 feet, stay in air for hours: MIT researcher
She says it is particularly urgent for health care workers who, she argues in her report, face an “underappreciated potential exposure range” while treating the sick and dying.
“There’s an urgency in revising the guidelines currently being given by the [World Health Organization] and the [Centers for Disease Control and Prevention] on the needs for protective equipment, particularly for the frontline health care workers,” Bourouiba told USA Today.

That's because dumb fuckers won't stop moving about and giving it to other people.
It's inevitable that it spreads through society as a whole, but we do have power to slow that spread so we have time to develop medications and/or vaccines to combat it and so we don't completely overwhelm the medical systems all at once.

https://neurosciencenews.com/covid-19-feces-swabs-16026
COVID-19 found in sputum and feces samples after pharyngeal swabs are negative
Clinicians from the Institute of Infectious Diseases at Beijing Ditan Hospital, Capital Medical University found that some patients had positive real-time fluorescence polymerase chain reaction (RT-PCR) test results for SARS-CoV-2 in the sputum or feces after the pharyngeal swabs became negative. Pharyngeal swabs are widely used to determine the appropriateness for a patient’s discharge from the hospital and/or whether isolation continues to be required. These findings raise concerns over whether patients with negative pharyngeal swabs are truly virus-free or if sampling of additional body sites might be needed.
The clinicians retrospectively identified a convenience sample of patients admitted to Beijing Ditan Hospital, Capital Medical University with a diagnosis of COVID-19 and paired RT-PCR testing of pharyngeal swabs with either sputum or feces. Among 133 patients admitted with COVID-19 from January 20 to February 27, 2020, the authors identified 22 with an initial or follow-up positive sputum or fecal samples paired with a follow-up negative pharyngeal sample. RT-PCR positive for SARS-CoV2 of sputum and feces was seen up to 39 and 13 days, respectively, after the obtained pharyngeal samples were negative.
The researchers caution that the study was not carried out in a systematic fashion with sampling of all patients in a protocolized manner, and it is not known whether these positive sputum or fecal results indicate that the patient could still be infectious to others. However, their findings are potentially important because they suggest that more study is needed in this area.

Not surprising.
Ebola virus was found in certain reservoirs months after someone had recovered. Like inside the eye, to the point where anyone who has recovered from Ebola is not allowed to have any invasive eye surgery for a year or more.

larry.fisherman said: It's just sugar. Honey is traditional because the various harvests of honey would contain different amounts of yeast in it. They used to think their stick they stirred the brew was magic because it would work better over time as the natural yeasts worked its way into the pores of the wood.
Also you can get decent abv of Mead, distillation is hard. And of course it sounds like something else. Gin for instance is flavoured vodka.
You're wrong. mead is fermented honey/water
kilju is fermented sugarwater
acerglyn is fermented maple syrup/water
Beer is fermented malted grain
cider is fermented apple juice
you cant just call cider mead. you cant call beer cider. these words all have real meanings.
Most yeast wont even make it to 20% abv. some will make it above 20 but thats still not like distilled spirits.
