the purpose of the vinegar is to clean the inside of your still, whatever make? model, from any gear greases/oils or corrosions and basically wash all the surfaces clean. The next run is usually a Sacrificial run because now your running high grade alcohol to remove any left over oils and the vinegar from your still.
Rather than putting new saddles or scrubbers, it might pay to rinse your still out with hot water and then repeat the cleaning runs until your happy with the cleanliness of the product you're making. I don't have a T500 and have never run one but something doesn't sound quite right - like someone took a short cut... and its now coming back on you.
In all seriousness, to do it right, start again by emptying your still of the saddles and scrubbers, rinse them off in hot water until that smell is gone. Then you can decide to either repeat the vinegar and sac runs OR do your first real run,
NB: the first run after the vinegar run is called a sacrificial run and should not ever be used for anything other than cleaning after a vinegar run! Don't drink that shyte, mate! It not good for you... :puke-huge:
