SV: Spirit Stills and Reboilers?

[Åke Johansson]

Could it be that it just is simpler and cheaper to operate the column
batch-wise than in a continuous process and the pot has to be there only to
house the necessary volume?

But isn't that what happens in Holstein stills, which are essentially
pots with a column on top? AFAIK, most whisk(e)y distillers using
Holstein-type stills only have one distillation run
