As if I wasn't broke enough

I make my own booze for 2.50 a handle.

i went to my therapist with a buzz on
therapist thinks im still 1+ years sober
booze is a hell of a drug guys

You smell like a pot of booze. He knows.

not with a fucking buzz on from like 3 beers, and her literally 10 feet across the room

i mean maybe

Are you vodkastillbro?

Please post pics of your process in making your still.

I want to make alcohol but I'm so afraid of burning my house down and being imprisoned for making untaxed liquor It's not even funny. An I live in one of the harshest states for making your own alcohol, They require an extra 70k in insurance on my house PLUS 3000 for the permit and then having the fucking weights and measurements guys at my house ever fucking year plus 300 a year.

>general

I would love to know your reasoning of posting this in every thread

>drank 3 beers instead of my usually 2 this weekend
WHAT HAVE I BECOME

I guess I'm vodkastillbro. I didn't know I had a name. The most important thing is building the condenser. I made 2, first one failed. This is a triple wrapped coldfinger, and I used to small of piping for the pump I had. It was kind of a work of art that didn't do shit.

They told you it was a slippery slope but you just had to find out for yourself. Maybe next life, kiddo.

COLDFINGER
HE HAS A
COLDDDDFINGERRRRR

>reasoning

Next was a real project. This is a jackson crossflow condenser that has a very low backpressure so water will always flow. You stuff that with copper mesh and it'll knock down 2600watts of power.

This is the one I can make 2.8 handles a night if I want to. Entire run is about 2.5 hours.

I'm not nearly this talented.

But go on, I love still porn.


The type of still I was thinking of building is just a basic pot still. What % alcohol do you get from your still?

Total investment?

entire machine is..

How fucking comfy would it be to make 2 handles a day, Drink one then store the other one in the basement until you have hundreds of gallons of vodka for your retirement?

Around $500 cnd. maybe 6. I've made around 30k in booze by now at least.

I'll stop drinking when I turn my life around. I'll turn my life around when I stop drinking.

How do you secure the lid? Is that a basic stainless steel stock pot?

Nice, Very impressive man

Theres a certain period of enduring hell that must be faced. 1,2, 4 years depending on what trade/school you go to.

It's a stainless 36 quart pot and I secure it with those fucking clips. They're good for chip bag clips, I don't know the name of them. I use a digital thermometer for tell me when the pile gets to 84 degrees, then I draw off 150ml of "fores" then I pull 3 bottles of booze off the mash.

Thats fuckin impressive man.

You ever think of making e85 for your car?

If my car was flex fuel I would apply for a federal fuel permit but unfortunately it is not and would likely cost more to covert it to flex fuel then it is worth.

My time wasn't wasted.

I use electrical heating and my ingredients are about 130 bucks per 270 liters. I don't think it would be worth it. I get about 12 to 13% yield. It's good for booze, not for fuel.

Fuck that's sexy

BTW if you want to make your own shit, use this..

shuggo.com/birdwatchers/calculator.htm

Yeah, I made a lot of sexy shit, back in the day.

How old are you now m8?

I'm almost 30 and I'm not even a quarter as talented as you

I'm an old drunk. Do better than me, please.

>liver hurts
>still drink anyway

Such is life

I wish I could.

My life is already fucked, I'm dying of cancer. There's no turning around for me unfortunately....Thank you for the advice and the copper porn though. I appreciate it

Jesus Christ dude. I'm so sorry. At least you made someone cry before you're out of here. I'm really sorry. fuc, Spend all the time you can with your people.

I've known for almost 4 years, I'm alright with it now. Not upset or sad in the least anymore. I'm just glad I never quit drinking when I was younger and enjoying myself because I would have gotten cancer anyway. It wasn't relating to alcohol ironically enough (I've been drinking daily since I was 19-20).

I'm just enjoying whats left and not giving a single fuck.

That's the way to do it. I'm proud to hear this. Some people are just fucking metal.

I'm going to fuck a backpage hooker rawdog tonight

one for you, my man

unexpected kek

Just one more drink...

Liver doesn't have nerves. Discomfort in lower right quadrant indicates pancreatitis.

nephritis as well.

It can also just be constipation in that area affecting the renal nerve, or even a kidney stone/sludge affecting the renal nerve via hydrostatic pressure.

Been sober since May 3 of this year after spending 10+ years of drinking an eighteen pack a night.....the first month was hell....but it feels great now ......get your ass to a meeting boys

I feel bad fory you dude, I'mma smoke a bowl for you on top of the one I was gonna smoke anyway.

In unrelated news, I just bottled a little infusion I made with 69% abv spirit and 5 g decarb weed. Does anyone here have experience with such tinctures and the decarb process?

Good for you man. I'm a little bit more and keep winding up being medically detoxed. This isn't fun anymore..

>It can also just be constipation in that area affecting the renal nerve
I've had this, probably thanks to beer

could also be a swollen liver iirc but less likely

That's why I enema every single night.

DUDE
WEED
LMAO

Actually I have a lot of experience with this. I don't smoke at all, period, I vastly prefer making tincture. (I hate calling it "green dragon," that sounds fucking stupid.)
Decarbing is simple, you grind you weed, you bake it in an oven. 50 minutes at 225 F is what I use. There's different temperatures and times you can use, but low and slow is generally better so you can be sure you've activated ALL the weed without any risk of destroying THC (which is around 325 iirc)

So, first: Get yourself a stronger spirit. Get yourself the strongest alcohol you can get a hold of, like Everclear or Bacardi 151. The stronger the alcohol the more potent the extraction.

Second: The method where you just soak your herb in alcohol for a couple weeks sucks. It sucks REALLY hard. If you want a good extraction you need to apply heat. The good part is this reduces the prep time from several days or weeks down to half an hour.

Infodump time.
If you can spare the expense, get yourself a hot plate and a temperature controller (Inkbird ITC-308 is what I use, it's $30 on Amazon) and simmer your herb in alcohol for half an hour at about 170 F, which is just under the boiling point of alcohol.
Use a double boiler setup with a small pot of water and a small mason jar in the water, with your alcohol, your herb, and the temperature probe in the jar. Do this underneath the range hood on your stove, with the fan on. As long as you're not boiling the alcohol there's zero risk of fire hazard. (Alcohol vapors are flammable.)
Keep it at temperature for half an hour, and when you're done strain it out through some cheesecloth and you're done. I put it in an eyedropper bottle, you can order them for a few bucks a pop. One dropper and you're high, two droppers and you're fucking GONE.
You can keep the herb after you squeeze it out, there's still some THC in it (alcohol extraction is only 80% efficient at the most) so you can reuse it to make some cannabutter or something.

It's my birthday in 3 hours Veeky Forums snd I'm still a drunk piece of shit

Kinky.

Cider/beer wasn't getting me drunk anymore even if I drank 12 so I've started drinking a fifth of jager a day.

Is this bad for me with all the herbs in it?

Also fuck I think I'm an alcoholic. I've been drunk since november 1st. My mom is kicking me out which I guess is alright it's time I moved out anyway because i'm turning 28 in a month but kind of sucks because it will be more expensive to pay electricity cable and internet and water and shit. Will have to go to the food bank, lots of spaghettios in my future.

pretty sure the alcohol is worse for you than the herbs, champ

Jager sucks because it's got sugar and shit in it that make it syrupy as fuck. Drink clear alcohol like Korn/Vodka/Schnaps for less hangovers.
t. german

went 24 hours without drinking for the first time in awhile

did i go 24 hours without a BAC? no, definitely not
but still 24 hours without putting a drink to my lips
drinking now tho

w-whats that

read the thread you nig
this is the al/ck/ thread and anything goes here
but you gotta read the thread man
ok c u on the boards, nothing personnel

I get tested every morning and the body usually metabolizes 1 oz liquor/hour

wtf did you do wrong that you get tested every morning

I'm gotta go into the local looney bin and grab my Valium. All jokes aside its an amazing pilot program that I'm sure was funded so hospitals don't deal with people withdrawaling every morning

I'm also trying to get into rehab

fuck i would sign up for that in an instant just to get the valium, i'll stop drinking for a couple months a year and stockpile that shit

i assume you live in UK or Canada or some socialist shithole that thinks programs like that aren't being abused by undesirables?

Alright thanks bro. I'll try some stoli next time.

Canada, yeah.

The detox unit itself is awesome. You can tell who the true drunks are around there though.

There are only 24 beds like this in my whole province

sounds nice honestly although it's against my political inclinations

there is zero sympathy for drunks in the US, from doctors or rehabs or detoxes, even the super expensive rehabs just treat you like an animal

i guess that's how it's supposed to be
whatever

You still need to evaporate the butane out of the wax with a vacuum pump. Also use butane without unhealthy oils most "regular" butane has.

This is the most Irish thing I've ever heard of.

What's a good sour beer.

Mr nigger and the cunt sandwich brewery 60 min IPA

What could you possibly achieve at a therapist if you're not being completely honest?
Wasting your damn money.

>later known as either Mike the Durable or Iron Mike
>you will NEVER have a nickname as cool as "Mike the Durable"

Insurance pays 90% of it, it keeps my family and girlfriend off my back
Grow the fuck up

>Grow the fuck up
That's exactly what you need to do

You're living in a childish delusion in which you lie to your family and girlfriend, and I need to grow up?

Yeah dude you're literally wasting your own time

I hope you all get buried alive.

Seems mildly same-faggy btw

my father told me today "you are your own worst enemy, Alcoholism is destroying you"


wew

>there is zero sympathy for drunks in the US, from doctors or rehabs or detoxes

Ooooh boy a little too close to home for that one. I've already told myself I'd rather stay at home and risk dying than take another trip to those fucking joints. Luckily I can hopefully grab some benzos for my next (and hopefully last) detox.

Sounds like alcoholism is your worst enemy, not you

Goddamn pops needs to get his story straight

2/3 max
Why aren't you honest with your therapist?

You make it sound like I just lie about everything

I’m honest I’m just hiding this recent relapse from her.
Actually made decent progress on a lot of fronts at that session

IMO big difference between slip up and a relapse

Seriously man, all the nurses and doctors are like...wtf is wrong with you, you get drunk all the time?! Why don’t you just go on long bike rides with your kids like me and maybe eat a cookie to blow off some steam? Have you tried melatonin for sleep? Jesus your blood pressure is high.

There is zero difference if you’re an actual alkie

I suspect that's not the only thing you're lying to her about.

>tfw 20 years old
>have never had alcohol my entire life
>at this point have an instinctual subconscious aversion to it that I don't know if I can overcome as a result of seeing how awful my alcoholic mother was

Will never drinking hurt me in my life

Haha are you literally from the American Council of Family Therapists or something? I feel like I’m being interrogated by the NKVD

No, don’t drink if you don’t need to

You may do well to stay away due to genetics alone

I'm right, aren't I?

Yes Comrade Nikolovsky

No doubt dude. I'm not trying to be armchair doctor here, but it's very rare that I've met any heathcare professional that's had any problems like drug and alchohol addiction. Gambling maybe. They see it from a certain standpoint where they have no earthly idea.

so I'm on my 10th day drinking a bottle of smirnov a day. I've found that if you abstain for 6-8 hours when you get up and sort of level out. you don't get the crippling withdraw symptoms the next day. I have to stop tomorrow to take care of some things so we'll have to see how it goes then. idk how many of you get full blown withdraws but they can be pretty bad.

nurses actually have higher rates of substance abuse than average people and they generally live pretty unhealthy lives. They all go home and down a bottle of wine while crying into a tub of ice cream. Cant speak for doctors though. They are all aware of how destructive substance abuse is, they just care just enough to get through the work day

I've been in detox with like three nurses

Is alcoholism really genetic?

My brother drinks and is an alcoholic

You already know about my mom

What, if I touch the stuff will I just awaken like some kind of alcohol based sleeper agent?

>once asked a nurse for more ativan and she said "we can't just have an ativan party every night" and thought she was hitting on me
