4$ vodka
 

So i have a 4$ bottle of vodka - and i have heard that runnig cheal liquor through a Brita filter will "improve" the quality.
Any heard/done this?
number of times to run it through?

IIRC, you should filter it a few times (especially if it's $4), and use a new filter each time. Hence, I imagine the process will probably a lot more than just buying a decent bottle of vodka.

I think that actually works good w/ vodka, not as well with most other liquers (like spiced rum would loose some flavor etc.)

Filtering is not the same as distillation.

The hangover is going to be bad because it is cheap vodka and has more impurities and more methanol in it than a good vodka.

The solution is obviously to not be a cheap bastard and to drink Ketel One or Ciroc. [img]/images/graemlins/cool.gif[/img]
