Separating water from ethanol (distilling) is illegal. You need a special permit from the ATF to own a still.

If you do it without, well.....

If it were legal, you can buy some really safe, reliable stills from New Zealand. If you order them now, they will be confiscated by customs.

Don't do it.

Amazingly, that's in the third paragraph of the article.
