Have you people heard of the Gray Kangaroo? My wife's friend bought it for her as a birthday present.
Testimonial...
When we were in Pennsylvania a couple of months ago, we bought two jars (yes, jars) of this horrid stuff called Georgia Moon Corn Whiskey. It's foul, foul stuff. Trust me. I'm as much a drunkard as the best of 'em, and I'd rather down shots of Listerine.
Think "liquid yeast." Flavor and aroma. Awful. Just awful. Not bottom shelf. More like "mopped off the floor."
We had nothing to lose by passing this lower-than-rotgut swill through the Gray Kangaroo.
Well holy shit... The filter turned this stuff into drinkable booze. I'm sipping it straight from the glass! It also removed an off-yellowish color. I'd compare it to a smooth vodka now, but with a touch of a grainy flavor.
Two issues of MDM came in the box. My wife and I were boozing it up doing an MDM crossword and reading the articles out loud. A good night! Good marketing ploy, actually. We need to subscribe to the printed MDM.
Next, we want to buy some really cheap vodka and try the filter... It's a dirty job, but somebody has to do it.
Booze Filter!

A Brita filter works as well, and it's cheaper. You just have to run stuff through about 6 times.
Earlie Cuyler: Allow me to explain the contamination process. Pine cones go in here, party liquors comes out here and proceed to here.

Earlie Cuyler: Fights begin, finger prints are took, days is lost, bail is made, court dates are ignored, cycle is repeated.

From what I read(and this was all on Distilling forums) the charcoal had different grades, or it had something to do with grain size or somesuch. I've had a crap day and will no doubt google this later.Lord RIPT wrote:No debate. You can make your own "Grey Kangaroo" for a couple of dollars. It's just activated charcoal. Duh. As if that is new.
Still just figuring it all out. Still not really figuring it out.

And a horse is a horse, of course, of course.

Back in the olden times, Joe 12 told us he used a regular Brita filter with great results.
