      If y'all are still curious, Carbonic Acid has a very high boiling point of 333.6°C(632.5°F for us in the U.S.) but will likely undergo hydrolysis with water being heated in the presence of that much H20 breaking back down into H2O + CO2 ⇌ H2CO3 though the reaction may not reach complete homeostasis in more acidic conditions allowing a few molecules of carbonic to be carried up through the distillation by vapor and end up in your nearly azeotropic ethanol "Dew-Shine"🤷‍♂
      But any that made it that far would very likely completely hydrolyze out of solution once proofed back down with clean water possibly indicated by a few extra bubbles when proofing down but other than that there shouldn't be any noticeable evidence of it left after that, so in my opinion that would be an unlikely flavor component of the final spirit👨‍🔬
      Hope that helps satisfy the curiosity about the Carbonic Acid😅
      Any other science-y intellectual curiosities' of similar nature come up in the future, please feel free to inquire with me anytime if you're really serious about satisfying the itch for learning such knowledge... I can be a surprisingly skilled and knowledgeable research resource in such instances🧪🔬

    Golden Hive Mead basically the same thing you guys are saying in regard to tasting notes. Also, I've found a great method for flattening soda is freezing it all the way and then thawing it out because the CO2 stays suspended in liquid but separates in a solid so when you thaw it out, the gas escapes.

    You should be able to sit with your still at about 60°C with nothing coming out.
    Take it up to 70°C-75°C and it only produces a small amount then stop, regardless of how long you leave it. This is fractionally distilling the methanol and higher volatile heads out.
    Then up to 78°C+ and it starts producing again. This is the ethanol fraction. Collect in small containers, labelled with order. Combine to taste later.

    Yes, this is the correct statement.

It takes like I’m still ferment after like three weeks, but there’s a lot of sugar cherries. Whatever I put in my beer or wine.

    The theory is good that the sugar water pop could ferment to make shine is good but it really doesn't get the flavour int he raw product unless you infuse something. One of the best yield mixes I have ever used was with Kirkland brand Mango juice and sugar. It comes out very clean and high proof. I just love experimenting. with different blends.

    Mountain Dew ,the soda, was originally intended as a whiskey mixer.
    (Lemon, orange and simple syrup)
    PepsiCo bought it and dramatically increased the sugar.

    7 months late, and not that I expect you guys to do the experiment again, but, @6:40 - you got carbon dioxide bubbles when you added the baking soda because you used a bicarbonate base. Reacting a carbonate or bicarbonate base with an acid turns the (bi-)carbonate ion into carbonic acid, which is just carbon dioxide dissolved in water. Had you added lye (sodium or potassium hydroxide) or quicklime (calcium oxide), the only bubbling would have been from residual carbon dioxide coming out of solution as the temperature rose.

    FYI we toss the "heads" because it has a large percentage of acetone and methyl alcohol in it and they're both quite toxic. The bacteria makes three chemicals in it's metabolizing of sugar and they are Acetone, Methyl (Wood) Alcohol and Ethyl (Grain) Alcohol. The first two have a lower boiling point and that's why they distill out first: The "head" of the run. A good distiller will keep his temperature low at the beginning of his run to get rid of the Acetone and Wood Alcohol without losing too much Grain Alcohol, then turn up the fire to get the rest of the grain out before the proof goes too low and he loses the taste of what he's going for: whiskey or white, which is the basis fir gin and vodka.
    FYI most vodka today is not made by "distillers" but is instead blended by the various brands by blending industrial ethyl alcohol they buy from industrial distillers, medical grade 95% in some cases, with specific waters they use to get their unique taste.
