PRO Activated carbon in-line carbon filters

Description

Note:

1. Always flush the activated carbon with water before use.
2. Simply hook up a silicon or vinal tubing  and connect it to your spirit reservoir vessels, (this can be the Kegland 35/65 Digiboil/Brewzilla or suitable plastic fermenters, etc.) The Tongariro natural spring 15L pet bottles with natural spring water are good for diluting your spirit, then can be used for cheap containers.
3. These filters can be “>130ºC steam re-activated” This is not such an issue with the 2-inch or 3-inch filters where not much carbon is used but can be economical on  4-inch or larger in-series filters for commercial boutique distilleries, where a lot of activated carbon is used.
4.   Dilute your distilled spirit to 40 to 55% ABV with water before filtering. (The reason for doing this is that unwanted flavour compounds are dissolved by high-strength alcohol and are difficult for the carbon to remove over 55%, 40% is best) if you need clean ethanol at a higher percentage you can distill this again.
