YA(useless)NI : Distillation kit.

Big, heavy, fragile bit of equipment. Prone to unexpected explosions,
especially when cursed. Has at least two (not particularly useful)
uses:

-given time and the proper ingrediants, can turn fruit or fruit juice
into booze.
-Can seperate 2 diluted potions into an undiluted potion and a potion
of water. For example diluted hallucination+diluted hallucination ->
undiluted hallucination+pure water. If the two diluted potions are not
of the same type (ie diluted levitation and diluted enlightenment), all
the usual alchemy rules (explosions etc) apply.

I thought purple was hallucination and yellow was confusion. Bats stun
you if you eat them.

Why not use it similar to a tinning kit? Applying it on a corpse of a
yellow fungus would produce a potion of confusion, a tengu corpse would
yield a potion of invisibility, and so on. Perhaps it would use bottles
you already have, else it would need and use up charges.

Maybe it can not only be charged with a wand, but also by inserting
certain potions, like water, oil or booze.

Ah, Information. A property, too valuable these days, to give it away,

Make that hallucination; confusion is from bats. Sorry.
