I asked this question before i believe when using the air still.
when i run a 25 litre sugarwash VS or kale. using the t500 boiler with the alembic dome should i stop the strip at 30% or 20 %

Its up to you Ninja, but if you are running neutral
and diluting to 30% for the spirit run I stop at 30
after that its mostly water and there is not much more
anyways.
When I make whisky or flavoured spirits might run to
20 in hope of more flavour.
Rather have a full bottle in front of me
than a full frontal lobotomy
