I am running it now, put all the stuff I have stripped in and topped up with 4 gen wash that finished awhile ago, running it through my 1500mm condensor controled still, all packing except 5 scrubbers removed. Checked the ABV 85%, kind of pissed off I wanted say 70 - 75%, so I have pulled condensor right out as far as it'll go, now getting 82%. Not happy - f***king reflux still, I have been waiting for this for ages, anyway smells very, very smooth, nice subtle smell.
So far 8.1 litres and still going.
Kind of annoyed with myself, the still is designed to do what it's doing and that is pull high ABV.
I'll air it and see how much taste it's retained, hopefully it didn't strip to much out.
