Ummmm, I do have a quote already from a related article. <a href="http://www.projectrho.com/public_html/rocket/lifesupport.php" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://www.projectrho.com/public_html/rocket/lifesupport.php</a>#graphene

Something to update the Space Booze page. It seems that there is an even easier way to distill alcohol: Graphene! <a href="http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2012/01/120126100639.htm" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://www.sciencedaily.com/releases/2012/01/120126100639.htm</a> Now, as an aficionado of spirits and booze, the standard distillation process allows the distiller to remove certain oils and flavors from the alcohol called, heads and tails. Here's a bit from the Glacier Distilling page (<a href="http://glacierdistilling.com/how-distilling-works/):" rel="nofollow noopener" target="_blank">http://glacierdistilling.com/how-distilling-works/):</a> "The distillate comes out of the still in phases, starting with the powerfully flavored “heads,” followed by a long phase of “hearts” and finishing with lower proof “tails.” The heart of the run is collected for bottling or aging while the heads and tails are added back to the next distillation run for rework. The art of distillation is deciding where to make the “cut” between heads, hearts and tails. At this point the spirit is flavored only by the grains from the mash and is clear in color." So graphene distillation will concentrate flavors, rather than remove them. You could filter the result, or just use as is and not worry about the flavor.
