EtOH Filtration - A Big Ol Post

Which I would have mentioned (:shushing_face:), except I assume it is more easily observed with the correct bags…(vs a ring of felt around a mesh bag in an open topped basket)

@Beaupa420:

If you look into spray washing, you can find folks selling donut shaped bags for a CUP15, but I’m convinced having fabric between the spray head and the weed lowers your extraction efficiency (requires more time).

You don’t know anyone who could make up the required bags for @Beaupa420 do you @Lincoln20XX?

Unfortunately no. The only bag makers I had access to are no longer making bags.

Bag filters are cheap enough any downside to using a 0.5 micron bag filter after a 25 micron ? Not gonna hold up any cannabinoids is it?

A useful rule of thumb is to only drop your micron rating by ~10x per stage, or you risk blinding them. So I’d probably go 25um → 5um → 0.5um.

But it also might be fine. Depends entirely on what’s in the thing you’re filtering.
