I can leave the 40% output in it and it will not filter through unless I loosen the screw so it wobbles and is definately not secure, anyone else have the same problem? I have been reduced to using a brita water filter. Also heard you have to discard the 1st 50 mm of distilled ethanol to get rid of the "aniseed" taste. Otherwise - what a hobby and totally legal in New Zealand where I put my thoughts when making it :-) Cheers Hi happy still hobby’ists, I have a question with the still spirits air still carbon filter.

Am i right in thinking that all I have to do is input what exactly I have into the calculator and then discard everything after its' highest purity point? Any help would be great.

First an appology(?) in advance for my limited English: I'm from the Netherlands. Secondly: great that this site exists! For we are starting just now making wine/distilling, and that leads us to number three: a question . We just bought the Smartstill Mark II; besides this Smartstill there is the Smartstill Basic. Now for what I understand is that the Smartstill Mark II has the benefit of better -more fine-regulating possibilities and following my intuition I reconned that -perhaps- this Smartstill can give better results. Is there anybody who knows something about this subject? Thanks verry much for answering, Ingeborg L. Hi all of you. First an appology(?) in advance for my limited English: I’m from the Netherlands.

The government isn't too keen on that kind of thing, at least not in this country. Besides which, unless you go for a large scale operation, the effort involved for the return you'd get would make it totally uneconomical. In short, you can’t.
