    I found it on the internet, but I see your point and I've deleted the picture. So you're saying there are (or could be) vents in the tops of the low wines and high wines condensers?

    Thanks fellas, These are the plans I have seen and I don't see a vent persay, unless the heads are collected in the horizontal condenser at the top and are either dropped back into the column or pulled off as refux... or hell maybe these plans don't include the vent and I'm searching for something thats not there...

    I came across the cad drawing of this still and was confused by how it didn't seem to address the heads but with this explanation the "reflux" line coming from the condenser at the top of the column could only be the heads, while hearts and what tails make it up the column would condense in the low wine PC and dump into the doubler to have the tails stripped out.... makes perfect sense now. Thanks man!

    Thanks Adam, I'm actually glad you replied because your still shown on YouTube is what I was thinking when I referenced the vapor gate. Ok the barrel aging actually make sense to clean up the spirit. So in this vendom I assume tails (or most of them) fall out as bottoms, and heads/hearts move onto the doubler. What the purpose of the doubler in this specific design? I can imagine how heads are kept a vapor but hearts are condensed. Thanks,

    Old thread I know... sorry. I've been studying the design of this still and I cannot for the life of me figure out how heads are "cut". I know in other designs a dephlag is used as a vapor gate to take heads off the top but I just don't understand this design... can anyone explain it? Thanks in advance B
