As promised: temperature vs %%.
For the y I took the % of the sample and the mean temperature of starting and stopping, for the x I calculated the % in the boiler at the moment of switching the sample.
Oh, and you must remember: the thermometer is about 2 dgr low, so do not compare with your own findings.

........Note that my graph shows the collected distillate, not the individual samples. I ran both these runs to 4 %ABV in the sample (of 100 ml), so the boiler was quite empty. The graphs of the samples shows the same effect, so I omitted them.......

This was a run from a LM Still. 2" column with 88cm of SPP. 5.5KW max power
Temps taken every 15s, time on X axis is in minutes.
The temp sensors have a reliable resolution of 0.06C, and were calibrated to be within ~.25C of actual temps. I don't care about the 'true' accuracy so much as the relative changes. I think the fores condensing in particular was very interesting.
37L 10% Charge
Initial boiler heating at 5.5kw, lowered to 1.5KW while condensing and removing fores, then up to 2.9-3.1kw for the remainder of the run.
Removed fores at 3ml/min
Aimed for a takeoff rate of 2L/hr

Data rocks

Blue is the wash temperature, other is the top of the column during a couple stripping runs
