The Fuselex filter is one of the best when it comes to carbon filters. It is a very solid investment as it will save you packet in carbon. A normal carbon cartridge in the EZ Filter is 72g and they can cost between $6 and $7. Activated carbon in 1kg bulk bag can be purchased for $10 to $12, so from this simple analysis you can see the savings.
- Mount the fuselex to a suitable wall fixture at a suitable height. It comes with a mounting bracket
- Place colection container under the Fuselex filter i.e demijon etc
- Pack the flow control chamber with filter wool to prevent carbon dust getting into finished product
- Connect the o-ring flow control chamber to the treatment chamber and fill the upper treatment chamber with course activated carbon
- Screw the o-ring treatment chamber to the Fuselex header tank
- Put your 40% cut of spirit into the header tank and wait 45minutes so the spirit saturates the carbon and then open the tap.
- Open the tap fully to get around 250ml of spirit and set it aside as it may have a little carbon dust in it
- Adjust the tap back to 1 drop per second
- Put the first 250ml back into the header tank and run through the filter again
- 350g of activated carbon will filter 20ltr of 40% cut, hence more savings then a 72g $6 carbon cartridge so this baby will pay for itself very quickly.
