Sorry Pop,I meant to respond yesterday,but ran out of wide awake time.
I bought the profile kit,almost two years ago and got all excited at the prospect of making Scotch whisky on the cheap.
All I can honestly report is that it can produce some close matches to some of the commercially available spirits.
But for me it is not a route worth following,and the many small bottles of the kit sit,unloved.
I will admit that was before the days of me using an Essencia filter,and maybe I would find better results today,with a filtered spirit.
Instead,I am now chasing the taste of whisky using all grain washes,with,what to me seem far superior results.
I hope that helps somewhat.

Yes you can certainly run grain washes through an air still,and can expect some decent results.
