If I drink a couple beers I wake up the next day with a hang over from ()ell - BUT I can drink 16 or more oz. of pure shine and the next day I feel just fine. My thought it that with the shine we pour off the first few oz. which is the Methyl alcohol (methanol). This is not done with beer.

I am also getting ready to make my first batch is wine (have never done that before) - I saw a post online that said something about bringing your mix to 148-160 degrees on the stove for a few minutes to allow the Methyl alcohol (methanol) to vaporize and leave the pot. Does this work for wine - I have heard horror stories about wine hangovers and just wondering if this could be a way around it?

Thanks for any help here.
