I am using a 35Ltr Brewzilla whereby the cooling water is automatically adjusted and a pin hole on the outlet adjust the outflow

the temp is in direct relation to the composition of vapour/liquid.
the boiler will boiler at a temp determined by alcohol %
Pure water boils at 100 deg
pure ethanol boils at approx. 78 deg
The mix of the two boil somewhere in between and will increase in temp as alcohol is depleted.
the head temp will indicate vapour temp. vapour temp is also governed by composition
the boiler is not changing power settings. temp increases as alcohol depletes. full power full time
you don't really need a controller

don't quote me on this, but this way you are controlling the rate of boil and hence the vapour speed.
Are you not still using the reflux column outlet temperature to control the Base temperature?
My problem was not the outlet temp of 78.5c with Alc cont of 100% and base at 86c but that the alc cont. lasted so long before turning down when the base started to rise
