Will plastics still make methanol in moonshine?

[mrSilkie]

I am an Australian resident and surprised that it's legal here... really surprised.

Following a guide off youtube, using bakers yeast and going to keep fermenting and adding sugar untill it cannot ferment any more. I also added brown, unprocessed sugar because i think it makes better, happier yeast. It's fermenting in a plastic bottle. I'll move it to a milk container as a secondary and catch the moonshine in a metal container.

Question is. I'm not using any wood, is it even possible to gather methanol when i make my moonshine?

They don't allow the discussion of this subject here.

Where can i ask? There seem to be no forums about this subject at all on the internet.

Actually there are forums and websites for making 'shine. I was into that for a bit of time before homebrewing.

Look a bit harder, but do be aware that it's not "legal" to make it without going through the proper channels in the US, so most of the time, it's a borderline acceptable subject on most public forums.

Best of luck.

Alright, i'll try as hard as i can to look for these forums. Wish me luck.
