Burn wash leaving burnt taste

Post by Mycotroph »

i recently tried to add a thump keg to my run but short sightedly used a larger IN line (1 1/4) and a small 1/2 OUT line which then created back pressure preventing the alcohol from escaping to the condenser it took me a little while to figure this out and I burned some of the organic matter still left in the wash (Peaches) and that burnt smell then transferred in form of flavor to my final product. Its quite terrible and just wondered if anybody else had ever done this and if so is there any way to salvage it and remove this awful taste. I looked around on the sight for quite some time but couldn't find anything relevant any help would be much appreciated
