So it's the ethanol you want?

Let the first pint go because it will be methanol boiled off first?

You get methanol, then ethanol, then water. All have different boiling points in that order. A good themometer is a must to no waste and keep it below the boiling point of water for a more pure finished product.

A pint is alot. About how much we get doing 10 gals, so if you are have less mash, it will be less methanol. You can find how much to dump online. Save it though for lighter fluid, works great.
