u/Air-Vodka

I've brewed maybe 50 beers and meads in 10 years, so now I'm trying a vodka. I started out with a sugar wash, with an expected 17%.ABV.

Bread yeast only gave me 3% after 2 weeks, so I added Red Star Cuvee yeast, but it got up to only 10% after a couple more weeks. (It gave me a 22% with a mead)

I now see I should have used a turbo yeast, which gets it done in a few days.

So can I just add it to my current batch, to reach the expected 17%?

After I get that, I'll run it through my temperature controlled air distiller at about 190 degrees, then again after adding water to the distilled alcohol. That should take a day.

Any comments about the procedure? I'm Still learning, I'd appreciate suggestions.
