Using a sous vide to remove heads from freeze destillation

Would it be possible to remove methanol from a freeze destillated wine/beer/cider with a sous vide? If i were to heat up a pot of water or water in a plugged sink to the boiling point of methanol and put a vessel with the wine in to gently heat it to that temperature, would that be effective to remove heads? Has anyone tried this before? As i do not have access to charcoal or any appropriate filter, and happen to have a sous vide lying around, I’m curious to put it to use.

Also asked this in r/firewater, but since this sub is more active i might receive some helpful answers here too :)
