I feel stupid for asking, but tell me more about why this is such a big deal--I was just reading somewhere else about all you need to do is learn to make alcohol so Im curious. And please experts, we all have things we can learn more about. Maybe bc I dont drink Im clueless on this but def intrigued to hear more
Distilling can be dangerous if you don't know what you are doing, my main concern would be methanol which is generally why the head is discarded. The shit can permanently blind or even kill you. It is very easy to make though and is definitely something I would consider. I have already developed proficiency at making wine, beer, and even hard apple cider......it's not too many more steps to distilling. Of course if I was distilling for profit I probably wouldn't put to much effort into the wort, corn, sugar, and water would be it for the fermenting process.

That's called knowing the cuts. This is more a problem of sketchy business practices (adulteration) than it is an actual skill-based issue.
