Description
STAINLESS STEEL SADDLES
500g of Stainless Steel Saddles.
Fill T500 column with saddles, shaking into place as you fill. the column should still make a shaking noise when it is full
These are preferred over ceramic as the ceramic absorbs the unwanted impurities and stainless steel helps with the refluxing action that removes these impurities more. Stainless steel saddles are also not porous so they last longer.
To wash your saddles: Remove them (both Stainless and copper, but keep them separate for ease of reassembly) from the column and soak them in vinegar. Once finished give them a thorough rinse 3 or 4 times before putting them back in the condenser.
You only have to rinse your column and saddles every 5-10 distillations
