Is there any difference in distilling in 100F - 32F temps?

The amount of energy required to raise your eth/water mix to its boiling point...

More electricity or propane/natural gas .... etc needed.

Block all wind possible. Insulate well. It's just like heating your home.

You can do it. It is not as easy when the atmosphere is cold. You'll enjoy the heat more too. 8)

May take a tad longer at 32 F to get to 172 F but on the other side, your condenser should work much better at 32 F
