AD searchHey people.
Have recently purchased a turbo 500 still. Have done 3 runs so far and am happy with it over all. Have had a read through and found a few tips to try and get rid of the chemical smell and taste. Now to make the changes before my next batch. Any ideas other than keep the temp low to start with, and get rid of the plastic, using copper and glass?
Thanks

Welcome Peanut.
TPW = Tomato Paste Wash. You'll find the recipe in the Treid and True section.
There's also a glossary of terms you can peruse for any you've not heard of before here.
Cheers,
Prof. Green.
