logo saying The Home Distillers Handbook, a gif of 356x88 at 3.9k

The Home Distillation Handbook, by Ola Norrman, describes how to make alcoholic spirit at home. Possibly the best book ever written on the subject, it describes in detail how you can make your own spirits.

NOTE: This process is illegal in some countries, as is even the construction of a distillation apparatus following the drawings in the book. The information given in the book is not intended to encourage the manufacture of alcohol! It is however, information that can be read in all democratic countries.

Troubleshooting:

Check that you have PKZIP to expand and decrypt the file. Your computer may select WinZip for you, but it does not work. You can download PKZIP from this page.

You must use PKZIP twice, first to expand the zip file to a PDF file, and second to decrypt the PDF file.

Your PC will select Acrobat Reader 1 or 2 if it has them. They do not work. Check that you have Acrobat Reader 3 or 4 or higher, otherwise click link on this page to download. You must use Acrobat Reader, not Microsoft Word or similar software. They cannot read PDF files.

Check that you do not have an old password and that you have downloaded a new file. Password is case sensitive and changes often. If it does not work, send e-mail to give your most recent password, and you will either get the latest password or help in opening the file.

Did you get your password on screen? If not, maybe your payment did process properly. Secure payment programs are down 5% of the time. If payment did not work, try again.

Other problems, send an e-mail. Please consider the time zone, we mainly answer during Swedish working hours, Monday - Friday.
