I'm thinking the inside of it must have a flake on it as well.. What would I run through it to clean some of that up or rid of it? I don't want any of that to exist in contact of my alcohol leaving the condenser. Thank you.

I permit it soak overnight then permit information technology drain into a bucket. The liquid was light blue in colour. I plugged it support and poured in another 50-50 solution. I let that sit down overnight and then drained it. It was all clear. Question: Is the blue the sulfides that the copper "gets rid of" from the distillate? Question: Practice we need to do this procedure to the copper every so frequently? If so, how often? Cheers!

On my copper pot still column and my BH condenser extension I launder thoroughly subsequently a run with lather and water and will rinse in a dish tub of 50/fifty vinegar and water. Then rinse with h2o and dry the parts with a estrus gun. I only had that problem once, that was before I started doing the above. If you store your copper parts where condensation can occur be certain to check them out before useing. It would exist a real shame to poison loved ones, friends, or yourself.
