    Addendum regarding: The 2021 Certified Specialist of Spirits Study Guide, as published by the Society of Wine Educators Note: This document outlines the substantive changes to the 2021 Study Guide as compared to the 2020 version of the CSW Study Guide. All page numbers reference the 2020 version. Please note that in addition to the information noted below, the tables concerning top-selling brands of particular types of spirits have been updated to reflect the most current statistics available. Page 10: The information regarding congeners was expanded to include the following: Congeners: The preceding explanation of distillation has been simplified by using the example of a solution made of only ethyl alcohol and water. However, many other compounds are created during fermentation and as a result, there are other compounds besides water and alcohol present in a fermented solution. Known as congeners, these compounds are responsible for much of the aroma and flavor—besides that of pure ethyl alcohol and water—of a fermented beverage or a distilled spirit. Specific congeners include the various acids, esters, aldehydes, fusel oils, and alcohols (other than ethanol) that are developed during fermentation. During distillation, congeners may vaporize and blend in with the ethanol–water vapors; however, each specific congener will react differently based on three factors: boiling point, solubility (in ethanol and water), and specific gravity. In addition, the heat of the distillation process—via a series of chemical changes known as pyrolysis—may cause some compounds to change form, creating new and different congeners that may be passed onto the finished product.

  • Building a Home Distillation Apparatus
    BUILDING A HOME DISTILLATION APPARATUS A Step by Step Guide Building a Home Distillation Apparatus i BUILDING A HOME DISTILLATION APPARATUS Foreword The pages that follow contain a step-by-step guide to building a relatively sophisticated distillation apparatus from commonly available materials, using simple tools, and at a cost of under $100 USD. The information contained on this site is directed at anyone who may want to know more about the subject: students, hobbyists, tinkers, pure water enthusiasts, survivors, the curious, and perhaps even amateur wine and beer makers. Designing and building this apparatus is the only subject of this manual. You will find that it confines itself solely to those areas. It does not enter into the domains of fermentation, recipes for making mash, beer, wine or any other spirits. These areas are covered in detail in other readily available books and numerous web sites. The site contains two separate design plans for the stills. And while both can be used for a number of distillation tasks, it should be recognized that their designs have been optimized for the task of separating ethyl alcohol from a water-based mixture. Having said that, remember that the real purpose of this site is to educate and inform those of you who are interested in this subject. It is not to be construed in any fashion as an encouragement to break the law. If you believe the law is incorrect, please take the time to contact your representatives in government, cast your vote at the polls, write newsletters to the media, and in general, try to make the changes in a legal and democratic manner.

  • Parental Alcohol Consumption and Adult Children's Educational Attainment
    DEA WP no. 79 Working Paper Series Parental Alcohol Consumption and Adult Children's Educational Attainment Lucia Mangiavacchi Universitat de les Illes Balears E-mail: [email protected] Luca Piccoli Universitat de les Illes Balears E-mail: [email protected] May 2016 Parental Alcohol Consumption and Adult Children's Educational Attainment∗ Lucia Mangiavacchiy Luca Piccoliz May 8, 2016 Abstract This study analyses whether parents' alcohol consumption can affect long run children's ed- ucational attainments. Using 19 waves of the Russia Longitudinal Monitoring Survey (RLMS), where individuals and their families are followed from childhood to adulthood, this study anal- yses how parental alcohol consumption during childhood (between 1994 and 2001) may affect children's educational attainment about twelve years later (from 2006 to 2014). Panel estima- tions show that mother total grams of alcohol consumption during childhood is consistently negatively associated with adult children educational outcomes, as the probability of having an university degree, the highest level of education achieved and years of schooling. By using direct observation of past parental behaviour, the proposed empirical strategy avoids endo- geneity issues that may arise when using contemporaneous retrospective information, while endogeneity deriving from unobserved characteristics determining both parental drinking and adult children educational attainment is addressed using an Hausman-Taylor estimator. This permits the identification of a negative causal relationship between mother alcohol consump- tion during childhood and long-run children's educational attainment. The study also explores the transmission mechanisms suggested by the literature, identifying a possible role for possi- ble excessive prenatal exposure to alcohol, family disruption, health issues during childhood, parental care needs and intergenerational transmission of drinking habits of the father.

Paternalism and alcohol policy Kari Poikolainen, University of Helsinki, Finland Drugs and Alcohol Today, Publication date: 23 September 2020 https://doi.org/10.1108/DAT-07-2020-0048 Abstract Purpose - To investigate to what degree scientific evidence supports contemporary paternalistic alcohol policy practices targeting fully competent adults. Design/methodology/approach - Paternalism may be acceptable if it is effective, fair and protects the safety of the citizen or a third party from the harms caused by the citizen's autonomic actions. To be justifiable, paternalistic actions should bring about clearly more benefits than harms. Otherwise autonomy should prevail. The evidence related to alcohol control policies is assessed against these principles. Findings - In peaceful civilized societies alcohol control policies (high prices, restrictions on supply and marketing) have no or only insignificant effectiveness.
