Abstract
⺠The level of carcinogen ethyl carbamate (EC) in cachaça is relatively high. ⺠The profile of pot still distillation affects EC level in cachaça. ⺠Maximising reflux ratios in the ascending parts of pot still reduces EC. ⺠Minimising exposure to copper in the descending parts of pot still reduces EC.
