don’t follow my lead with the copper. read the whole thread! possible contamination issue.

My first batch of Limoncello was a success, but I didn't like having to suspend the fruit in cheesecloth. To me it seemed there was much wasted space.

So I made a simple jig with a copper end cap, and a couple squished pieces of copper pipe, attached with a stainless screw.

This allows the jig to get into the jug with the tubes compacted, then they can be spread apart.

This next run I can do ~10 lemons per litre of 95% compared to 3 in cheesecloth.
