triple distilling procedure

Post by Roundyround »

I'm going to triple distill some vodka on my pot still and wondering if there was a recommended procedure. I'm planning on stripping run as usual with foreshot cut only, dilute low wines to 30% abv, do second run fast like a stripping run but take a conservative initial head cut to remove the worst of the heads by smell and taste off the still, then dilute to 30% abv and do the third run like normal slow spirit run, collecting in jars, letting it air out, keep what I like and then proof.
I'm open for suggestions if there is a better procedure or something I'm missing.
I'm going to try a renewable grain based lifestyle. Beer and whiskey count don't they?
