What is distillation?THE COMMON MISCONCEPTION
about distilling is that it actually
creates something. Many people who do not fully understand the process believe
that when you distill a liquid, a new product is created in the process. This is not
at all the case. By definition, distillation is simply a means of purifying a liquid by
boiling the liquid and then condensing the vapors. Therefore, if the product that
you wish to collect is not present in the liquid that you are going to distill, you
will not be successful in your endeavor. This is true regardless of what you wish
to distill, be it water, vinegar, fuel, perfume, or alcohol. The purpose of distilling
is to separate the vapors to collect only the part or parts that you want. So, in
reality, distillation is nothing more than a method of purification by boiling a
liquid to separate the pieces that it is made up of, collecting those that you want,
and
discarding
the
remainder.
This
is
possible
because
the
individual
compounds boil at different temperatures, and therefore we can be rather precise
in what we are collecting.
Because it is so effective, distillation is used to produce many products,
including water, fuel, vinegar, perfume, essential oils, pharmaceuticals, and, of
course, alcohol. Naturally, one’s mind seems to immediately jump to alcohol
when we mention distillation. Tell someone that you have a still, and you will
often invoke a response confirming this belief. It is truly magical how a person’s
mind immediately assumes that you mean
alcohol distillation
when you say the
word “still.” Virtually never do you hear in response, “Oh, you distill water?” or
the myriad of other distilled products that you could have been referring to. No,
a person immediately envisions an old copper still back in the woods, with an
aged man (complete with gray beard and denim overalls) standing beside a
copper coil while clear liquor drips into a gallon jug. Yes, this still goes on back
in the hills, but it is not what you were referring to. You were referring to far
more
refined
equipment
and
the
hobby
that
is
akin
to
home
beer-and
winemaking, not a for-profit illegal enterprise. For our purposes, we will also
focus on the distillation of alcohol and, more specifically, small production, or
“hobby distilling.
