Metal Substance floating in still

Post by Mattmmmax »

Hi All - I used my Alembic Pot Still for a stripping run for the second time ever. I had completed a vinegar run to clean it prior to the first strip but this time when I rinsed out the still I saw distinct silver metal in the dome of the lid and in the water when I rinsed it.

1. Does this look like solder that wasn’t cleared with the vinegar run?

2. Should I dump the spirit in case some of this came through with the distillate?
