How to clean homemade alcohol?
Perhaps the best filter or water softener plant for moonshine is activated carbon. It is able to sorb almost all organic impurities, including fusel oils. Sorption of impurities from alcohols occurs similarly to these processes in water.
It is rational to use cartridge filters with granular carbon or carbon blocks for this . They are compact and simply installed in the tube directly at the outlet of the moonshine. You can also optionally install a mechanical filter with a polypropylene cartridge in front of the carbon filter . The resource of such filters for moonshine will be slightly lower than for water, since the content of impurities is much higher. You can count on about 1000 – 1500 liters. This, of course, is enough for domestic use, but at the same time you will most likely have to change the cartridges often, since a high content of organic substances can lead to the formation of microorganisms. You can evaluate the need to replace cartridges by the quality of the product obtained after cleaning on activated carbon. Perhaps to get high-quality alcohol you do not need any other filters. Often asked about the possibility of using ion-exchange resins and other materials. Their use in domestic conditions is not necessary, since the impurities removed by them are contained in alcohol in a critically small amount and do not affect the organoleptic qualities of water. In addition, organic substances can react with these materials and lead to the release of additional toxic products. As for ion-exchange resins, they can act as a catalyst for the formation of by-products, as well as chemically bind with moonshine impurities.
Can I use a filter jug for moonshine?
The mixture inside the cartridge of such a filter contains various components, including ion-exchange resins and catalytic materials . Therefore, we do not recommend using them for such purposes.
