Why guess kitty get a 10l buck for a couple of bucks from woolies they have litre increments and fill it with water then you can get an actual capacity :handgestures-thumbupleft:

Does ABV matter in the end when the product gets watered down to 40%, or does this have more to do with cleaner cuts etc?

Pye x radius squared x height will give you a really good indication of its volume
Don't forget to do a cleaning run Vinegar and water then run a sacrificial spirit run. This will teach you heaps. The first time I ever ran my stil I ran that sacrificial four times just playing with it to see what would happen :handgestures-thumbupleft: it dosent hurt to be patient.
Then when you run your first real go dump the first 100 mill and do really deliberate cuts. I didn't know about cuts back when I started but when I learned I started doing them 100 ml at a time and don't regret it at all .
It gets easier as you get practice.
Keep up the good work and keep safe
