One that distills, as a condenser. One who makes alcoholic liquors by the process of distillation
The original grain spirit, whiskey, appears to have first been distilled in Ireland. While its specific origins are unknown, there is evidence that by the sixteenth century it was widely consumed in some parts of Scotland. It was also during the seventeenth century that Franciscus Sylvius (or Franz de la Boe), a professor of medicine at the University of Leyden, distilled spirits from grain.
George Washington was apparently the largest distiller of whiskey in the new American nation during the late 1700s. In 1798, the year before his death, Washington's distillery at Mount Vernon produced 11,000 gallons of whiskey and produced a profit of $7,500. That was an enormous sum of money over 200 years ago.
Washington began producing whiskey at the suggestion of his plantation manager, who was Scottish. The new distiller first began by purchasing a copper still, but his first batch was so successful that he bought three more stills and built a larger distillery.

Is ethanol expensive?
Denatured ethanol retails for in the vicinity of 3 bucks a gallon, which is extremely cheap as chemicals go. Potable ethanol is several times as expensive, mainly because of taxes; I recall (in 1980) being told by a distiller and supplier of industrial ethanol that they immediately denatured most of their product because otherwise the taxes amounted to about $9 per gallon, and that the bookkeeping, security, etc. required probably added another dollar per gallon to the final cost.
What is simple distillation used?
you can find water distillers in many home for private use. They are very modern and nice looking things made of stainless steel and provide a source of clean water. it works by sending water throug a hose from the regular home water line to the pot of the distiller. There as the water evaporates the pressura tha builds leaves trough a tiny hole in form of a serpentine where a fan cools down the vapor a few degrees and it becomes water again. This time rid of anything it had. If you clean the pot one a month dependinig on the condition of your tap water you will see with your eye the material that doesn't evaporate at the temperature of water so actually all you clean out of the pot is what you sttoped drinking when you begin using a water destiler.
What is the difference between distilled water and double distilled water?
Distilled water is water that bean put through the process of distillation once. Triple distilled water is water that bean put through the process of distillation 3 times. The only real difference between the two is in how likely they are to be 100% pure H2O water. If you start with water that has a lot of impurities in it, for example sea water, you will no doubt have to distil it repeatedly to make it is 100% free of its impurities. If you start with water that has less impurities, for example bottled water, you may get away with distilling it just once depending on how efficient your distiller is.
