Essencia arrived today and now a question
I just finished racking a wash and adding sparkaloid. So still have to do strip runs beginning next week and then finish runs. Is it too early to prime the essencia purifier now? Or should I wait until I have some alcohol to put in it? Won`t likely finish distilling with the air still for another 10 days. I`ve kinda fallen behind in production
Thanks
Sonny

I would wait until you've got your product ready to filter
I then use this rather than water to prime the carbon in the cartridge just stand cartridge in a suitable container and pour the 40% diluted in the top a couple of times repeating with what dribbles through and tapping cartridge to release air bubbles
Works for me

Believe me the day even the most experienced on this forum stops learning things will be the day they are laid 6 foot under

I don't know if I would even like this hobby if I could not constantly learn new things. I'd probably still do it for the drink though...

I'm working on pickling myself from the inside out.
Then they can just lean my corpse against a tree.
The difficult part is timing,and not wanting to self-embalm too soon.
