If you are actually going to use this to distill alcohol, ou will need to add a thermometer. That way you dont accidentally boil out the methanol and ethanol together. The ethanol will be ok, but the methanol will make you blind... :(

You can't distill what's not there.

Ethanol= grain alcohol.
methanol= cellulose ( wood) alcohol.

As long as you're not brewing your car hooch on wood chips or other indigestible items, your end product will be :

- Ethanol

-Water

-Minute amount of foul smelling compounds (butyric acid).

. Variations of these are what gives brandy, whisky, etc. their unique flavour.
