I ran a 5 gal batch with pot still my cuts started at 174 and ran it down to 118 and stopped collecting mixed everything together came down to about 140 proof cut with distilled water down to 80+, after setting for a couple of weeks I noticed in the bottom of the pint jar there was a light blue cloud, like a ghost, about as big a my thumb nail but very faint. What is it?

So you made cuts when you distilled? After distillation you then mixed everything together before you proofed it?
I am guessing that there is quite a bit of heads and tails in the pint jar- it is most likely some sort of fusel oils.
I only proof down my hearts- I save the tails and add them to my next batch.
Did you ditch the foreshots?
