Broken Kilo of D8. Ideas on how to save?

Hey guys, was trying out a new vendor for our d8 kilo, and we received the package where the glass has shattered.

Any ideas on how to separate it from this jar into another jar and filter out some of the glass pieces and/or glass dust? Open to ALL IDEAS AND SUGGESTIONS.

Thanks.

It’s d8. The glass can’t be the most dangerous thing in that liter. :joy::rofl::joy:

Dissolve in alcohol and filter to 1micron. I’ve done it before. I don’t have a reference, but the FDA does have guidance on safe sizes of glass contamination in food.

Didn’t search hard enough. Please use the search function next time before asking a question.

Edit: seriously, this took me two minutes to find, this is a good example why we give people so much shit when they ask these types of questions.

If you are going to use a carrier oil, I would dissolve in that and then filter through a fritted disc buchner funnel

Wtf did you use for a query?

I came up empty the first four attempts…which is really unusual. I figure it’s cheating to use

Search results for 'stainless filter glass' - Future4200 because it implies one already has the answer (AND it fails!!)

That’s not CBD…
The amount of heat required to get that liquid enough to pour through a screen is going to trash the oil and make it dark as hell.

You might be able to vac it through a filter or push it through one with argon at a low enough temp that it doesn’t trash it.

This happened to an associate. It was way easier just dissolving in solvent, filtering and re-distilled.

Broken jar, which let me to one of your posts, and from there you shared a link of the post I was looking for.

Edit: broken glass led me straight to the op, it was the 6th result.

I feel like if you are actually buying d8 (on a consumer level) you probably don’t give a shit if there is glass in it…lol

This has happened to me twice. I handled each, in totally opposite ways.
Both catastrophes were my dumb asses fault. First time I froze a Mason jar, that was not meant to be frozen :man_facepalming: Was an easy fix. Kept in freezer a couple of days to insure max frozen solid. Placed over large bowl, removed larger pieces of glass. Used a lab squeeze bottle filled with etoh, and rinsed off frozen distillate. The etoh was so minute, not worth cleaning up.

This would fit your situation
