It was just 8 pounds of sugar in water with that disgusting turbo yeast, (I usually filter the end product through charcoal to lessen the funk taste of the turbo,) and 4 gallons of water. Same as dozens of times before, but instead of ethanol it seemed to have produced a volatile death smelling substance. The blue could be from the copper but it was just used 5 days prior with no blue, and no death smelling volatiles, just funky tasting moonshine, or whatever you want to call it.
