    Henry me old tooty fruity .

     

    Re-read my post . What your quoting is direct ingestion of Methanol .

     

    To counter .

     

    Methanol poisoning can be treated with the antidotes ethanol or fomepizole.[12][15][16] Both of these drugs act to reduce the action of alcohol dehydrogenase on methanol by means of competitive inhibition, so that it is excreted by the kidneys rather than being transformed into toxic metabolites.[12] Further treatment may include giving sodium bicarbonate for metabolic acidosis and haemodialysis or haemodiafiltration can be used to remove methanol and formate from the blood.[12] Folinic acid or folic acid is also administered to enhance the metabolism of formate.[12]

     

    So home distilling , At the start of the run a small amount of methanol will come out of the wash BUT Ethanol also comes out with the Methanol . Seeing as Ethanol is an antidote to Methanol poisioning , i still would like to meet somebody that has been turned blind by distilling at home .

    I'm not saying that any of you are WRONG .

     

    BUT

     

    Would somebody please explain to me how you end up with a poisonous substance by simply boiling a wash ? and collecting the vapour . It already exits within the wash .

     

    The first runnings out of your still is when the methanol comes out , the amount is very small AND WILL NOT KILL YOU .( If you collected this out of all your still runs and necked it , grave results would happen ) The reason why the first bit of the run is disguarded is because it is very bitter and leaves a nasty taste . http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methanol

     

     

    The reason why the blindness myth has been put about is because :-

     

    Guess what if you start distilling spirits at home , HM GOV will not collect any tax's .

     

    BTW i think you will find that alcohol is a poison .

     

    I'm sure your tales of blindness and peoples fingers dropping off are indeed true , but i would love to meet these people .

  23. I need a bottle of whiskey and some cigars for my wedding

    Now this is my subject/speciality .

     

    Whisky ..

     

    We are talking a single for that kind oh money . So do you just need the one bottle or are you making sure it goes round and everybody can havea couple of fills ?

     

    As to the cigar side , you need to get yourself on a flight and go to Spain . They have a bit of a thing with Cuba . Myself when i partook with some tobacco product , i loved a Robusto to be fair a Partagas cerie D no. 4 was just the job. !!!!

     

    Good luck with the wedding an all that stuff
