so ive been reading a lot of info here; I still have a question pertaining to the distillation of absinthe that is being distilled with 95% alcohol and distilled water. should I be concerned about heads? I figured the tails would still be an issue (or lack there of actually, since its usually added to next distillation). I've pretty much hopefully got the gist of heads though: watch for temperature and also the smell will be much different. viscosity will be different as well. one recipe I have for absinthe simply says to change receiver once the distillate changes color and save it to add to future runs pertaining to the tails. another recipe I have says to save the first 25-30 ml of distillate per liter of finished product (this source give recipe, and of water, and alcohol to use step by step to get an end product of 1 liter).
Thanks to anyone that chimes in. once finished i'll post pictures, and even a recipe if you guys care to know, of my very first run out of my first pot still that was just delivered to my doorstep today.
I'm really excited to get this project under way and elope with le fee verte
