Hi, I am a new-b and I have a question on pots. I have done some reading and have not found the answer I am looking for. I am going to build my own reflux column and was thinking of building a copper pot also. I have noticed that most of the people on here are using kegs and stainless steel pots. I know that copper removes sulfides, so why not a copper pot? You can remove some sulfides with the copper in the column, is that enough? Would a person know the difference between using a copper and stainless pot? Thanks for any info.

Welcome to HD snooka, A copper pot is great they are just more expencive and a bit harder to come by than stainless, you need copper in the vapor path some where and copper packing works great for that but a copper pot is great too don't think you would notice the difference in flavor either way though, but that's just my opinion. Happy stillin.

Thanks for the info...I thought it was imperative that you use a copper pot to get flavored high quality spirit.I will consider a stainless pot. Thanks again
