Looking good man especially for a minute wash.. care to expand on that? What were your thoughts about the hot wash? And how do you feel the iso washes differed from the etoh...I know this is all subjective, just like to hear more..I've never done a hot wash either..extraction rates impurities etc
what do you mean hot wash?
i did everything out of the freezer.
froze jars of weed, and bottles of alcohols.
measured out my liquid, submerged my material in the jars, lightly shook, placed into freezer, and within seconds, took out, and strained through one coffee filter into my pryrex bowl.
i applied heat and vacuum to the small iso wash to speed up the boil off (after the freezer rinse)
as for comparison of the two, i did notice the everclear evaporate off a tad quicker (75-85F temps with fans on both)
and as for purging, the everclear batch just seemed further along. when using a vacuum, you see many bubbles rise up, andmake a muffin, the everclear batch had a very very nice tiny bubble muffin structure, while the 99iso reminded me of a butane muffin, big bubbles..
i think all i have left is water moisture in all three. thats why the consistencies are different..
and to countvp, i am using 190 proof everclear.
and i used 1 cup of everclear to 14 grams of scissored up premature tiny buds.. ( same with iso)
you think my middle shatter oil is gross vacpurgeQ!E thats 99iso . and if i played with it more, it could be prettier..
im going to do a 2nd rinse on all the material soon here, just iso, see what we can make..
