The azeotrope at 95.6% is why you can't distill pure ethanol.

Nah I failed that class.
(turns out not showing up (even for tests) for the last half of a semester is not good)
Ethanol boils at a lower temp than water, mixture of both boils at the point along blue curve corresponding to % composition and creates a vapor (and resulting distillate) with % composition equal to the point on the purple curve directly horizontal from boiling point. Repeat for increased % alcohol. At 95.6% alcohol there is "nowhere to go" since the curves intersect, so that is as pure as you can distill.
Damn transparency

You can buy a 30 dollar molecular filter that will take out that last 4 percentEthanol boils at a lower temp than water, mixture of both boils at the point along blue curve corresponding to % composition and creates a vapor (and resulting distillate) with % composition equal to the point on the purple curve directly horizontal from boiling point.

When Everclear isn't enough.
And if you have hours to spend filtering through activated charcoal you can make a shit vodka a good vodka.

Morning drinking at atlanta airport blue moon bar
I love the Tampa Southwest terminal with their CCB bar... open at 8AM. Tradition is to always partake in the morning beers.
For me too! Flew Delta today, and sadly, the TPA Columbia restaurant could not serve a beer at 7AM, so I had to fly beerless until connecting at Atlanta.

Blue laws are so dumb.
Can't serve booze till noon or one or something in Augusta Georgia, and the only reason they serve at all is the golf tournament. Fro years there was no final round with booze.

My grandfather used to go to the Masters some years, and he said he had to bring a flask along!

I had a glass of 1792 whiskey with a Millennium Falcon-shaped ice cube.
Now I'm watching a documentary on the Freemasons, and it's fuckin' fascinating.
Not a huge fan of 1792, but I'm just trying to kill the bottle, so I can justify getting some more knob or bulleit.
