Still Spirits Copper Saddles for T500 Distillation Column
Still Spirits Copper Saddles column packing for T-500 Distilling Column. Add these Still Spirits Copper Saddles to the top of your T-500 Distillation Column and shake firmly in place before adding ceramic saddles or Still Spirits Stainless Steel Saddles. Pack the ceramic saddles or the stainless rings in well to ensure that the Still Spirits copper saddles remain at the top of the column. The copper saddles at the top of the column will help remove sulpher odors during the distillation process and ultimately produce a cleaner distillate. These copper saddles are essential for high alcohol washes, typically over 16% ABV.
cleaning copper saddles; Still Spirits recommends that you remove and clean copper saddles every 8-10 distillation runs. To clean remove the Still Spirits Copper Saddles from the column and soak in citric acid or vinegar for 15 minutes then rinse with water and air dry. The light acid will clean the copper of oxidation and surface build up.

These are made for the T-500 but I use them in my Mr. Distiller. You can buy a gin basket https://milehidistilling.com/product/mr-distiller-infusion-basket/ that fits in the top of the Mr. Distiller. Instead of putting botanicals in the basket, I put copper saddles, and it really improves the taste of the product. They copper really adsorbs a lot of stuff on the surfaces, so I find that it’s good to soak the saddles in vinegar for 15 minutes after every run. Really shines ’em right back up.
I run 3 extra bags in the top of my t 500 gives me top shelf product with smooth finish and taste and as always Mile High gets it right out to me fast and easy service with a smile.
