Spirit Filtering & Filters
Posted: Fri Apr 20, 2012 4:32 am
I know some of you don't filter your spirit for different reasons, I do and obviously there are many people that prefer to filter their spirits. For those of you that do filter your spirit, I thought it would be good for everyone to hear what you use, and how well you think it works, whether it be carbon cartridge filtering units or whatever.
I am currently using an EZ Filter Carbon Filter unit from Still Spirits (pictured below), but since I have only used it once, I cant really comment except to say it seems to work fine, and the final product tastes pretty good to me. The price of this filter varies a bit, but they mostly retail for $119.00, and replacement carbon cartridges are usually around $8.95ea. Check them out here - http://stillspirits.com/au/filters/filt ... ilter.html
I have just found another carbon cartridge type unit (pictured below), but its larger than the EZ Filter and its made from Stainless Steel. I'm sure some of you would have seen these from Pure Distilling in Geelong Victoria. I would be very interested to hear from anyone who has one of these, and how well it works. I have only seen these for sale in two places in Perth, in both places the price was $200.00, however the replacement carbon cartridges are a bit more expensive at $9.95ea.
