Putting older posts here. Going to try to keep the novice forum pruned about 90 days work. The 'good' old stuff is going to be put into appropriate forums.

Tempature control and cloudy distillate

Post by S_longhurst »

First time distilling in homemade pressure cooker pot still. Wanted to test it out with wine before I the sugar wash I have been fermenting for 2 weeks now. I was monitoring the tempature very carefully but noting started happening until it got over the 90c mark witch I was told the point to shut it down. Secondly I discarded the first 100ml or so then started collecting, first 400ml look great super clear great aroma. The second and third 400ml jars are cloudy as hell. Is this the tails? Doesn't look or feel oily or anything and burns super clear. I just want to have a better idea before I run my suger wash.
