fusel alcohol

Freeze distillation, on the other hand, does not remove fusel alcohols.

Minor quantities, mainly in Europe, are obtained from separation of fusel alcohols.

The popular belief that fusel alcohol contributes to hangover symptoms is a matter of scientific debate.

The distilleries Smith installed there made him rich by producing spirits with an unusually low fusel alcohol value.

Fusel alcohols are formed when fermentation occurs:

Methanol and isopropanol are fusel alcohols.

During distillation, fusel alcohols are concentrated in the feints or "tails" at the end of the distillation run.

It (along with similar fusel alcohols) is reputed to be responsible for severe "hangovers", although experiments in animal models show no evidence for this.

This is useful in producing high quality alcoholic beverages, while ensuring that less desirable components (such as fusel alcohols) are returned to the primary flask.

A mixture of amyl alcohols (also called amyl alcohol) can be obtained from fusel alcohol.

Fusel alcohols including TAA are a grain fermentation byproduct and therefore in most alcoholic beverages.

Fusel alcohols are made by the degradation of amino acids though in the presence of high levels of ammonia and urea their production is reduced.

Cruzan Black Strap: a traditional, heavier rum made from the blackstrap molasses of sugar cane, noted for its low content of fusel alcohol.

Freeze distillation can concentrate methanol and fusel alcohols (by-products of fermentation which true distillation separates out) in applejack to unhealthy levels.

Aging usually is brief, six months or less, during which time the whiskey absorbs color and flavor from the barrel while the off-flavors and fusel alcohols are reduced.

Butanol is one of the group of "fusel alcohols" (from the German for "bad liquor"), which have more than two carbon atoms and have significant solubility in water.

Freeze distillation concentrates ethanol along with methanol and fusel alcohols (fermentation by-products partially removed by distillation) in applejack.

These substances include small amounts of chemicals such as other alcohols (known as fusel alcohols), acetone, acetaldehyde, esters, and aldehydes (e.g. propanol, glycols, ethyl acetate).

An excessive concentration in the wort is not desirable however, as this may cause production of a significant quantity of fusel alcohols, or spoilage of the finished beer by other organisms.

Higher alcohol versions, sometimes called "High Gravity" or just "HG", may contain high levels of fusel alcohols, which gives off solvent- or fuel-like aromas and flavors.

Fusel alcohols, also sometimes called fusel oils, or potato oil in Europe, are a mixture of several alcohols (chiefly amyl alcohol) produced as a by-product of alcoholic fermentation.

Smith introduced fractional distillation that produces liquor without fusel alcohol in Sweden in 1877, under the name "Tiodubbelt Renadt Brännvin" (Tenfold Purified Vodka).

Rate of detoxification of alcohol can also be slowed by certain drugs which interfere with the action of alcohol dehydrogenases, notably aspirin, furfural (which may be found in fusel alcohol), fumes of certain solvents, many heavy metals, and some pyrazole compounds.
