Distilling idea

[NotBenStiller]

Yeah that's the other point - this method would vapourize all liquid - ethanol and water all together - thus you are not actually distilling. You'd end up with the exact same output that you had in the wash (minus any solids)

Hey all, seems most of you were correct with the seperating fores. tried this today. Was an interesting experience Did about 9L of TPW.
Heat up time, 5 minutes.
#1 - 125ml, burnt brown poo slight fores smell.
#2 - 125ml, 18% , using middle burner on 3 burner condensor flow flatout, very slow steady stream flow rate from fermenter into boiler, broken stream with little huffing, with strong tom flavor/smell.
#3 - 25%, more broken stream, tails dirty smell. smoothish taste.
#4 - 30%, slight tom smell, smooth and dry taste.
#5 - 30%, very faint tom smell, very smooth dry taste.
#6 - 50%, upped the flow rate from fermenter to boiler, all 3 burners going, more spirit smell, smooth and less dry, nice flavor.
#7 - 50%, very smooth and nice smell and flavor.
#8 - 50%, same as #7 with a bit more spirit bite.
#9 - 40%, 250ml, dryness back, smooth smell, slight tom smell.
#10 - 40%, same as 10.
Shut it down, to pissed and confused haha.

Would like to see someone with experience try this, so they can distinguish the cut smells. I have no idea where the fores where, only a slight smell in the first jar. Seems to be distilling in reverse, going from low % to higher.

It's making me need a pee :laughing-rolling:

Interesting experiment, but I think the foreshot factor is a very important one.

Keep thinking differently though, that's how all sorts of cool shit is invented :ympeace:
