The Lore of Still Building

A easily read entertaining and educational book on the history of, and with the basic instructions on how you can build your own still.

Lore of Still Building

This is the only book I've read on this subject but it answered all my questions and more. The authors do a tremendous job. There's even a chapter on how to make your own "gasohol". Corn farmers ought to like that.

Lore of Still Building

The Lore of Still Building seems to be the granddaddy of all the still building books. It's written in plain simple english and yet it's almost a technical source book. If you aren't interested in the "whys" and "wherefores" you can simply skip those chapters and start building your project the day you get the book. It's a book with all the facts mixed in with some good humor. The Alaskan Bootlegger's Bible is an OK book too, but it has too many "giggly" homespun stories for my taste --and using corncobs for ANYTHING related to distilling is going to yield fusel oil as well as alcohol. Ugh! The "Lore" may be a granddaddy but it's a wise granddaddy that doesn't bore you to death with old wive's tales. And I'm almost an "ol' wife" myself!
