Those who dance are considered mad by those who cannot hear the music.

Yea, I figured smoking was a bad idea since I'm technically making moonshine
So, question... If all you need is water, grain and heat... Could you make chum in a crock pot??.... Like, for the seasons that don't offer much sunshine??.... And would it be faster? Heat is a factor,but too much heat would kill the bug that makes the grain ripe with stink.

Lots of things work. Water and Milo works as well as anything.

I would be willing to bet that the reason you felt bad was from methanol inhalation and/or absorption (through the skin). Methanol is produced during fermentation along with ethanol (what gets you drunk). More methanol is produced when fermentation conditions are less than adequate. It is also highly poisonous, causes headache and nausea. Use gloves when you handle any fermented grain and try not to inhale any fumes. Safety first, then teamwork!
