Don't think so. The purpose of distilling alcohol is usually to separate it from water. The boiling point of alcohol is close to that of water so the temperature of the vessel and cooling column is critical. When water is distilled it is usually separated from salts and other contaminants. The temperature is not critical for that process. Ken
