I took an energy for agriculture class at good old Michigan State University, it had a section on alternative fuels, the university had just built a still for producing ethanol to experiment with for use in tractors and such, in the educational environment they gave tours of the still, folks would like to climb up the ladder to look in the mash tunn, folks running the show thought it would be nice to put a mirror above the tunn so folks of could see in without climbing. Instructor told us two valuable things during the tour, if you requisition a mirror to put on the ceiling from the university you get a lot of unwanted attention real quick and if you have to deal with the BATF (Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco and Firearms)you'll find out real quick they're real butt holes. About 7 years later I was going through the US Navy's Explosive Ordinance Disposal School, one of the instructors- a Marine Master Gunnery Sergeant warned us that the BATF would be watching us and that they're real butt holes to deal with, avoid them at all costs.
So back to the post question if you distill you're very likely to end up dealing with the BATF and they're real butt holes. If you and I were to discuss (legal term "conspire") distilling alcohol and then one of us goes and purchases something for the purpose of distilling untaxed spirits we have both committed a felony. Probably don't want to mess with the BATF, this is the same organization that brought us such memorable events as the Davidian Complex stand off/massacre at Waco Texas and the Ruby Ridge shoot out.

The golden corn ripens well and early, the stoking, stacking,.... the drawing in with the tractors and trailers and a few buck rakes thrown in, and possibly a heavy horse. It would be a great day for the collies and the terrier dogs, rats and mice would be at the bottom of the stacks so the dogs, would have a busy time hunting and killing, all the corn was gathered and ricked in what we c
