"I've had that happen once. So I put my cut product in the freezer for 24 hours. The oils coagulated and floated up to the top and I just ladled them out with a spoon.

"Cloudy usually means too deep into tails. Or,,,,,,
you ran your still too hard and / or you did not segregate your transitions well enough to avoid tails in your drink."

After tossing out the foreshots and the start of the heads and this is different for each still (mine is a full pint jar) --- I collect in small jars so as not to get the cuts mixed in with someting I dont want. Then after a little time to air I sniff and figger out which is the good stuff and which is the best stuff. Use your nose and dont push tooooo far into the tails --- temp is not really the best deciding factor for this, you will learn your still after a while, but greed is a bad thing. So if you collect in small amounts you can really pick apart whats what. Whewww weeee -- sorry hope this helps.
