Would you buy it again? Or perhaps one of the loose carbon units.

The result of this was the base of the ceramic filter shattering into several pieces, and the threaded part of the carbon filter breaking into many pieces.
A thin piece of HDPE and some HA6 sealant made a quick repair, if not a lasting one to the ceramic filter.
I had previously twice fixed the carbon filter, and while I could have made a single use until next fill repair, I decided to order replacements for both filters.

In the end I ran the process in reverse;
I simply stood the carbon filter in the upper unit and poured the spirit into it from a jug.
5 litres went through in 30 minutes.

Then I fitted the bodged ceramic filter which took half a day to let the carbon filtered spirit through.

I can't complain really, both filters have been used and re-filled for 5 years.
