If I could get Everclear in CA I don't think I'd even ask the question, but the expense of having to buy the alcohol online every time I run out and have it shipped from wherever makes it less attractive to a single time press purchase (not counting the mesh bags and such).I can’t comment on rosin, never done it, but QWET should work about the same as QWISO which I do. My guess is that a solvent wash is going to have a higher return than pressing, and alcohols draw out more terpenes than any other solvent if memory serves. Been quite a time since I read many articles about extraction lol
Thanks smokey, but hard pass on that one . I'd gladly pay for one before I start building a still!Now you could make your own still for recovery. A member who had been MIA has made one quite simply.
The bursting into flames part?Keep filling me with ideas guys because I love extracts. It’s the alcohol part that scares me.
If I went the QWET way I would definitely get a distiller. No reason to have costs evaporate into thin air when they can be recaptured. I wonder if @Derbybud knows how many times you would need to run Bacardi 151 through to end up at 190 proof. That stuff isn't cheap here either.I would say invest in a distiller(even tho' I haven't) they're relatively cheap on the Zon' and safer than hot plates...etc.( I would suggest upper middle of the road models) and I've read different reports of people getting good results using 151 proof rum...unless you're handy guy , a decent press can be pricey, ...just my .02...cheerz...
Interesting, thanks Celt! I just send a pricing request to my lab to find out what residual iso testing would cost.Sounds to me, after reading his method, that he didn’t ‘cook’ it near long enough (an hour is pretty damned quick) Mine cooks for about 12 hrs (sometimes longer if I forget about it ) with an extraction fan over the dish to draw away vapours and supply constant fresh air.
The result is something that resembles a consistency between taffy and hard candy depending on how long I cook it. Not sure what the ppms of ISO would be but highly doubt they would be as high as the MI state limits. Sometime when testing here is more readily accessible, I will have mine tested
I don't need to ask. You are my go-to for all things still-related.Ask me how I know?
2 more times would yield you closer to 190 with a pot still. I'm not sure with the still you're using. Going by the numbers I'd say you should yield 75% minimum output. Hope that helps and make sure you shout out anytime you need my input.
Thanks Derby! For someone who hardly seems to post anywhere (that I see), you are always right here when I call.Oh 120 proof should yield ya 60% output
I'd certainly give it a read, but I can't imaging doing it any more than I can imagine using DE and charcoal to filter the QWET! Thanks Celt.I will see if I can find it again if you are interested
The house I bought 20 yrs ago had a kitchen fire. I knew the guys living in the house then. Idiots. They figured they would make some oil out of trim using IPA on the stove top. Well when the vapor hit the top of the pot and then flowed down to the hot element it flashed back to the pot. Needless to say they they did some time in the old slammer.Keep filling me with ideas guys because I love extracts. It’s the alcohol part that scares me.
