How does it work?
So in this SOP is the fresh biomass only being washed one time in the chilled EtOH?
Besides the noted issue with the bentonite vs celite in filtration with the acid saturated co2.
Have you or has anyone noted any differences in an ethanol solution containing carbonic acid, compared to a solution chilled with ln2 or chiler/freezer? Does it create any isomerization or any difference in āpullā between a non-acidified batch?

40# at 2% cannabinoids isnāt going to get you a whole lot.
should be ~360g in there, you might get 75% of that.
Iād guess a crude weight of ~700g and potency of ~50%
might be worth the effortā¦
thatās assuming it started at 20% and the hydrocarbon extraction was 90% efficient.
without a fuge youāre going to lose 10% or more of your solvent.
4-6 gallons at $75gal for beverage grade 190proof.

Any recommendations for relatively cheap centrifuges that can spin 30 lbs at a time?

Ace spinners?
@ cyclopath
$10-15k will get you a used explosion proof BOCK.
Iāve posted pics of the one I picked up. I can get six x 5lb bags in it. Works well.
Not floodable.
This showed up in my feed this morningā¦

The Ace, yes.
Cyclecide were the clowns that first put a welder in my hands, and Iāve participated in a number of their outlandish pedal powered devices, but only ridden their two person fuge.

Are you guys sourcing that from peony or kingreat
Understand the question, not sure I know enough about manufacturing in China to answer. Think itās a no to both. We are also modifying them after we get them.
Eg so it canāt eat anyone (lid inter-lock), new seals, Bodine motor, UL rated controllerā¦

What bags are people using for this? Preferably that will fit in the panda.
There are probably better, cheaper options, but Iād been looking for an excuse to buy bubble bags, so thatās what I use. I can stuff 2 5 gal bags in it nicely.
Though, as many people have mentioned, the opening for the panda is frustratingly small compared to itās capacity. I havenāt modified mine yet, but it may come to pass.
