okay guys what's the proceeder for using a power controller
on a airstill
do you run on full power to get the fores and heads out
then turn down power for the hearts then after you collected
hearts do you turn the power back up to full for the tails ?

the other way about. Start off on low power to stop the heads smearing into the hearts and increase the power as the run progresses.


When pot stilling I don't turn down towards the end, but keep increasing the power to keep the output fairly constant.
For tails I run full power, like on a stripping run, as its all getting recycled anyway.
