Distilling
Some drinks need a second step: distilling. The tool is an ordinary brewing stand — the same one you use for potions. Spirits — whiskey, rum, vodka, gin, absinthe and the like — must be distilled. Beers, wines and meads do not; distilling those would ruin them.
How to distill
- Place your fermented base-brew bottles into a brewing stand.
- Fuel it with blaze powder, just like making potions.
- The stand distills the brew. Each recipe needs a specific number of distill runs — keep distilling until you have hit that number.
The brewing stand processes all three bottle slots at once, so you can distill up to three brews together.
Too few or too many runs lowers the quality. Each recipe page in Recipe Types lists how many runs it wants.
