From Phil -

Wow a whole 7.5grams of wormwood/liter.
That's it?

Sometimes PhiL is so funny, that it almost hurts

But maybe he means "wormwood oil"

Or, gasp, 7.5g of wormwood in the coloring step.

Yes, of course.

2.5kg or 2500g per 100l, divide by 100,...yup, that yields 7.5g .

Looks like he used the 'New Math' from the old LoucheLounge Making Absinthe thread.

Chinese 'Fuzzy Math'.

French "hairy math"

Voodoo Math.

The amount sounds perfect. Remember, he is using "Tall" absinthe in the Filterated Czeckerland Xit, not that cheap short absinthe used by so many others. Tall absinthe goe smuch farther because, well, its tall.

Trickle down math.

Tall Absinthe - More stem
Stems contain most of the T-Jones
Therefore, they need less Tall Atsinthe to achieve the EU 10ppm limit.

I'm tall and stemmy and if I don't shake
it enough when I'm done, I get trickle
down.

Louchie's a republican???

Gimpy,

You made what I wrote sound reasonable. That's not easy.


Or natural.

But hey, honestly, do we truly know how much Art. abs./liter any other commercial distiller is using? It's a distint possibility that this is a normal amount for a typical commercial concoction.

Hee hee, I said concoction, and I don't even know if it's spelled write.

No we don't.

If that's all their using, it's no wonder C.O.'s are rather lackluster.
