Gday guys, googling and searching didn’t really give me an answer so here’s my question.
I have a 6 T 4” stainless still with copper bubblers and copper scrubber packing. The whole thing is a metre high and sits on a 60l digiboil.
I do fast stripping runs, filter through carbon column, then slow spirit run, trying to make a nice gin. I use a gin basket on top of the column just before the PC.
I cannot for the life of me get rid of this aftertaste that seems to be a metallic coppery thing.
Still has done heaps of runs, I don’t overclean it, can’t figure out what is wrong. Planning on doing a gin run tomorrow, with most of the copper removed to see if it is a copper taste.
Happens with whatever wash I am using, from sugar to tpw to grains.
I had way better gin from the old alembic and T500 with saddles removed.
Help please :)
