Seven Stills to the Rescue

[JVU]

Our very own @Tim Obert and his Seven Stills crew are doing what they can to help with the pandemic by switching to making much needed hand sanitizer:

Bay Area distilleries stop making liquor during pandemic to make hand sanitizer

It was the sight of empty store shelves that woke the owners of the Falcon Spirits Distillery in Richmond to the critical shortage of hand sanitizer.

Oh, now that is awesome! I wonder if Tim has contacted Tap Plastics re: spray or pump bottle donation @Tim Obert

Curious how they make hand sanitizer, is it just a matter of making a 120 proof liquid(60% alcohol) and then adding something to it to make it gel?

Seven Stills is my new favorite brand. Thanks, Tim! My main squeeze (she is a nurse) thanks you as well!

Aloe Vera gel mixed with alcohol.
Somewhere I saw that glycerin is also used in the mixture

I did a few with aloe but we have to follow WHO guidelines which is glycerine

We are sourcing a 99% grain neutral ethanol and denaturing it with h2o2 and then adding glycerin and sterile water

Can you deliver in gallon sized jugs? Maybe BRS will donate some gallon jugs with pumps.

I believe the biggest size we can do is 1L, we have to follow the regulations unfortunate
