Power Went Out

Postby Justillit » Mon Jan 17, 2022 9:40 pm

Hello,

Probably a dumb question - still new.
On my third distil from a TPW and the power went out and the wash cooled to 50C, will I need to take foreshots again? I assume not but google couldn't tell me.

Thanks :?

Any time i power down and restart, I do a fores cut, usually only 50-100mls. Your not going to miss it ( I don't but a mid run one could be put back in with the feints) and will only help the overall quality, a little off flavour can carry a long way and who likes headaches?

Every time you put the still into full reflux, nasties will collect at the top
