I recently found some yeast in my latest game, so I’ve been trying to make alcohol, but I’m not sure what the steps are for it.
To start out, I made a still and crafted some pine wine must.
I tried activating the still and it did nothing and I also tried pouring out the pine wine must onto the still, but I couldn’t.
Right now, the pine wine must is in a glass bottle, so is there a special container I need to keep it in, or do I just leave it in the glass bottle for a few days?
It says that it will ferment in 2 days when placed in a vat, but I don’t know what kind of vat it means. Do I craft a vat, or does it mean the still?
Any tips would be appreciated.

in construction you need to build fermenting vat
