If you are talking about clouding of white distillate, that usually comes from oils...that come from late in the run (tails). Running too fast can also pull them in sooner. Either you missed your end cut. Ran too fast. Or both. That's usually the cause. Other cause might be that you pushed too much heat up front and it foamed up and puked into your distillate.

What kind of wash are you distilling and what's the abv? A lot of time a wash with a low abv will result in cloudy low wines because of the concentration of oils and other stuff.
