Pure Distilling Carbon Extruded Rods 1.5mm – 750g

Engineered with a thicker 1.5 mm diameter, these rods are ideal for packing filter tubes where a more stable, free-flowing carbon bed is required.

The larger size prevents compaction and blockages, ensuring consistent filtration throughout the process. Each extruded and reformed carbon rod possesses a uniform pore structure, precisely designed to capture higher-grade volatile organic compounds (VOCs) that can influence aroma and taste. Perfect for refining high-quality reflux spirits, leaving them exceptionally clean, neutral, and ready for flavouring or maturation.

Usage:
Use 10–25 g per litre of diluted spirit. Always ensure the spirit is below 55% ABV before carbon treatment, as higher strengths can damage the carbon’s structure and reduce effectiveness. For best performance, maintain even packing and consistent flow through the filter column.

Compare loose filtration carbon

This range includes several carbon forms for different filtration arrangements:

• Coconut Chips 1.0mm – steam-activated coconut shell chips; a versatile all-rounder for polishing most distilled spirits.
• Universal Chips 1.0mm – all-purpose chips and the listed replacement for Alcotec Activated Carbon 1kg.
• Extruded Rods 0.9mm – thinner rods intended for Z-filters and similar vertical filtration systems.

Follow the instructions for your filtration system and confirm the required carbon form and size before ordering.
