When you say " steep " the herbs overnight,
do you mean just soak at room temp overnight?

Also, when you make your wok still and turn the heat on the three liters, how do you heat control?
On high at first until it boils then down to low? steady medium? steady low?
How long approximately does it take to get the 1 litter out of three( using proper heating technique?)

Yup, if you do it by the book the recommendation is 12-24 hours.

Basically I bring it to a boil on a high temperature, then turn down the gas to medium.

When I'm distilling wash (14% --> 50+%) I put 4 liters in the kettle, heat it up (lasts 15minutes) and then distill for 40 minutes.
In these 40 minutes I draw off a liter of typically 55%.
In the next 5 minutes I collect the distillate, throw out and replace the wash and start the process anew, so for me turning 4 liters of 14% into 1 liter 55% costs little under 1 hour, including heatup phase.

You need to optimize what works for you. Your pots and pans are different, your stove is different and unless you still 14% Turbo wash your wash will be different.
