Cost

Built in a Compound. Uses 9x13 cells.

Use

An alembic works by heating alcoholic liquid (either wine or beer). Because alcohol boils at a lower temperature than water, the pure alcohol is separated from the rest of the mixture. The alcohol vapor drifts up through a pipe, cools, condenses, and collects in the output sink as liquid.

Alembics run on charcoal. Up to 1000 can be stored in the alembic, though you will probably never need that much as it burns fuel rather slowly.
