Why is my yield of distilled spirits so low?

Your wash has most probably not fermented out properly. Make sure you are fermenting in an area under 30 degrees, and always check your wash with a Hydrometer before distilling. The correct reading for a finished wash is 990 on your hydrometer. Check your still for any steam leaks, and make sure you are following the operating instructions.
