THC Solubility In Ethanol

[Old Salt]

There is a way to recover about 70% of your ethanol. Use a counter top distillery to do initial reduction. Wich saves alcohol that is evaporated.

That's not a bad still. It's available in two configurations, both from the same manufacturer, only one of which is suitable. Make sure you get the one with the alcohol resistant seals. The other is only good for water.

Found that one on eBay for $99 bucks. And it was the alcohol still. Have been researching oil production. Lol doing my homework before I attempt to make. It's my health at stake. Want to do it right the first time and every time after.

I'm feeling charitable

i have joined a couple sites

i feel our boutique industry will suffer, if we even remand our discoveries to a singular pot site

as y'all know

I'm schizophrenic

a parting gift

i believe

of a decade of opioids- on my back

now, 420 chased me off, with avg joes, upset about off topic

so i will stay in my lanes/threads

and do my best, not to leave my corner

my research is on thcfarmer.com
and niw, phenohunter.something and again, here

I'm disappointed in the greed and selfishness which surrounds

we have an advantage

over fda regulated, pharmaceutical companies

so here r some recent discoveries/observations

thc solubility in Ethanol, is one thing

for those of us, who use ethanol

remember

it's more than thc we r dissolving!


i had to use 151 everclear

due to current circumstances

as well as ethanol, denatured with heptane

thought i had ruined an oil batch

that was discolored and separated

got bored

stilled the 60ish mg in syringes

that looked like light brown n typical oil cow pattern, whereas the goods, r uniform; always

took it up to 240°F... just under the first cannabinoid

and while it's still discolored from the eclear

it was the highest I'd ever been

so i took a finished, top notch batch, to 240, from the Ethanol heptain combo and it was the newest- strongest stuff i have ever made. there's no pain i cannot dismantle, with these multiple strain, cocktails... at 16.5 cents per day, in decigrams vs rso's clinic, $60 a day diet, similar to oxycontin... y people don't bother to try, is beyond my comprehension... if for nothing else, than to disprove. worst that happens- u have a batch of cannabis oil, with negligible cost diffs.

i shall return...

I'm trying not to lose my marbles n maintain focus

freaks me out

so i wil share my own observations, here

and across other peer sites

lest we b myopic and limit ourselves to a singular school of thought

think Pfizer shares their discoveries

this and human testing on ourselves

is our advantage

to help our loved onez

we do this for

so please

do not chase me off

again

some current strains in seedling

think to cull all but the ummm

chem descendant

and pop another of my own: atf x godfather og

pop more gog and ghost train haze n cross it into ummm chem descendant.

and atf cross, with cbd glue tide

came out, as expected

will comment on it at later time

i hope u and ur families r well

I used to have a link to some lab info on this subject but their site has been reworked and it’s gone. But what I retained from it

“In 70% ethyl, THC is soluble at 20.2mg/ml”

Thus you can put 606 mg of THC in 1 fl oz of 70% ethanol


Note that this is assuming THC extract and not bud or some other raw material which would add various other soluble substances to the mix.

I dont suppose you happen to have the info for how much is soluble in 95 or 96% ethanol do you?

It's still growing.

If you don't get an answer you could drop rosin into alcohol until you reach the saturation point.

The crystals may be THC. High mesh filter bags (37-25 micron) are used to separate the THC (diamonds) from the rest (sauce).

How would I know when i'd reached the saturation point?

It was just something I found on the net somewhere. I’ve also read claims that pure thc will dissolve in alcohol at a 1:1 ratio. So -one gram of thc could dissolve in one ml of alcohol. Again just ‘something I read somewhere’.

What are you dissolving? When it’s saturated it will stop dissolving. Also the level will rise. If you dissolve half a cup of salt in a litre of water you’ll still have a litre. The level won’t start rising until it’s reached saturation and the salt starts piling up on the bottom.

Obviously though if whatever you are adding to the alcohol is only partially soluble, and has some insoluble material in with it, it will be harder to tell what’s going on.
