Cory Posted February 7, 2019 Share Posted February 7, 2019 When I add my homemade walnut bitters to a cocktail that contains water (via ice or soda) it turns milky. What is the fix? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SlickFloss Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 Saponification. Also, this is posted in the incorrect section. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foreshot Posted February 8, 2019 Share Posted February 8, 2019 It's may be chill haze due to the fats in the walnuts. https://homedistiller.org/wiki/index.php/Chill_Filtering How to tell: If you warm it up and it goes away then it's the fats hazing over. Like SickFloss said, either up your ABV or chill filter. Chill filtering may effect the flavor some. Not a fun decision. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SlickFloss Posted February 11, 2019 Share Posted February 11, 2019 Yeah give us some more technical info here there some gnarly chemists round these parts. Whats your ABV? When you say "put it in a cocktail with water in it" do you mean a few dashes or make a cocktail out of the bitters itself? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
