I've done some research and need some advice to refine my plan. I plan on making 2 gallons of possibly the worst homebrew ever (water, granulated sugar, and brewer's yeast). I have the amounts of everything calculated and the plan is to concentrate the brew after it is done fermenting using a freezer to freeze the water out (and kill the remaining yeast) to about 30% abv. I plan to ferment to about 15% abv and was wondering if there is any way to (cheaply) prevent off flavors. And it will be back-sweetened by a ton of kool-aid powder. Thanks!

Edit: forgot to mention I will be using DAP nutrient. Ideally, I'd like to kinda set it and forget it until its done fermenting
