Fraction-resolution method retained; fixed jar sizes/percentages and 50ml foreshots are not validated contaminant-removal rules or product-yield guarantees.
The author explains fraction collection before recombining selected portions.
Collecting the run in a larger number of smaller, labeled vessels preserves more sensory resolution and gives the distiller more options when deciding what to include in the final cut.

A practical methodological claim: fixed percentage boundaries are only heuristics, while smaller samples preserve decision flexibility.
