Heat to about 175 F. Alcohol 'boils' and separates from the water. Some water evaporates so you cannot get 100% pure alcohol.

Distillation in alcohol production is typically carried out using a still. The mixture, such as fermented grains, fruits, or vegetables, is heated in the still, causing the alcohol to vaporize. The vapors then rise through the still into a condenser, where they cool and condense back into a liquid form. This process separates the alcohol from other contaminants and results in a higher concentration of alcohol.

What is the difference between distillation and fermentation?
what is the difference between fermentation and distillation? Distillation- the separation of alcohol from a fermented liquid by heating to vaportize the alcohol, then condensing the vapors. Fermentation- The action of yeast upon sugar in a solution, which breaks down the sugar into carbon dioxide and alcohol

Distillation of alcohol?
The separation of alcohol from a fermented liquid is by heating it until the alcohol vapourises and then condenses into liquid again.
How can a mixture of methyl alcohol and ethyl alcohol be separated?
By distillation, though 100% pure is not attainable.
How would you separate alcohol and orange juice?
by fractional distillation.
What is separation method for alcohol from beer?
Alcohol can be separated from beer by distillation; alcohol has a lower boiling point than water.
How do you separate water from alcohol?
You can separate water from alcohol by fractional distillation. By heating the mixture to the right temperature, the alcohol will evaporate and leave the water behind. However, alcohols and water are quite difficult to separate completely, and the separation will not be 100% by this method.
