clear gin

Post by Howard »

Hi. I've made a juniper infusion in alcohol. Good, but yellow. Would a basket, or putting the Juniper in the pot get rid of the color? Thanks.

I make nuetral, reflux still....
for a gin (only made it once) I charged my boiler with finished neutral
and distilled water, about 30%, then used a ss basket in the vapor path with the gin stuff inside.
Worked, and ran clear... I had a little oil but I think it was my basket placement. Plain coffee filter cleared that.
Hole that helps.
There's way better ginmakers on the site but since nobody else answered you yet I figured I'd chime in.
"You know, you can just buy that stuff right up the road" he said.
I just smiled, and said quietly, "No you can't".
