Essential Oil Distillation
Legal and safety note

Do not use a nonalcohol application as a pretext for unauthorized alcohol production. Verify product, fire, pressure, electrical and local business requirements.

Define the product and premises

Steam or hydro-distillation equipment for botanicals and hydrosols. Write down what will be processed, what will be collected, who will use or buy it, where equipment will operate and which agency regulates the activity.

Keep uses separated

Water or botanical equipment should not be casually repurposed for alcohol production. Equipment capability does not create legal permission.

Product rules still apply

Water, cosmetics, fragrance, laboratory, industrial and fuel products can have their own sanitation, labeling, environmental, fire and business requirements.

Document the decision

Keep equipment labels, intended-use statement, permits, safety review, manuals and operating restrictions together.
