Still, the Arkansas boys carried a hydrometer to show off the alcohol content of their products.

No counting bubbles.

Been many years since I pumped ethanol into a bore hole and had to know the weight.

The first step to civilized whisky production.

With a pot still it should go in the barrel at somewhere between 140 and 150 proof.

And it should stay there for years.

Otherwise not fit for consumption.
