1st Stripping Run
Posted: Fri Feb 19, 2010 10:52 am
I read the section on "Stripping" a few times... basically, a fast run to get all the alcohol out not cutting the heads/hearts/tails will allow the 2nd run easier for the distiller to taste/smell better to decide when to make his "cuts".
But the one thing it didn't mention was when to remove the Foreshot? Would you recommend removing it slowly at first during the stripping run, then crank the heat up for a rapid stripping distillation.... or do you guys just let her rip from the get go then remove the Foreshot on the second distillation?
So, remove Foreshot on First stripping run or Second Distillation?
Thanks,
M.
