Afaik, a reflux will do everything and keep or remove as much flavor as you want. Strictly depends on how you configure and run it.
not really, reflux traps water (it refluxs) and and lets vapor escape to where the vapor gets condensed back into a liquid. Its the water that carries the off flavors and the water gets sent back down same process. This why temp is important, water and ethanol have different boiling temps

Didn't have trouble finding this. Seems to agree with what I said. We'll have to see how he configures it.
Edit: I'm a neophyte on this. But he doesn't distill in this video. So we'll have to see that happens in the next. Regardless, if I'm wrong, I'm wrong.
