Just b.c. programs exist does not mean they are actually accessible.
I’ve tried before to avoided excise tax b.c. we aren’t consuming the etoh and it’s all recovered and re-used, it’s not something that’s actually feasible for 99% of people. And I’m not afraid of paperwork either it’s far more complicated than just calling someone and filing the correct paperwork
Maybe he means un-denature it through the seives? It’s my understanding that you can’t really separate that last 5% of heptane from the ethanol easily due to an azeotrope that’s really hard to break. That’s why it’s used to denature the ethanol in the first place, you can’t just remove the poison and skirt the excise tax.
Yeah I got the 32 pc one I linked up above and I have a 2l digital mantle that can go to 400c that has been working fine for heating my 1l stuff so far.
I ment the take away or alter the natural qualities of.
part. or to modify the molecular structure of (something, such as a protein or DNA) especially by heat, acid, alkali, or ultraviolet radiation so as to destroy or diminish some of the original properties and especially the specific biological activity part.
I’ve always refereed to dehydrating fullly as denaturing.
Guess I need to rethink my usage of that because like you said, it ALSO means:
make (alcohol) unfit for drinking by the addition of toxic or foul-tasting substances…
doh…
Yeah, when it first came out I heard good things about it. But now it’s not reviewed so well and seems the consensus is you get a nicer product with just 190-195% eth.
I’ve been smoking iso washed oil for a long time and not dead yet. But yes. For the sake of health… lol.
My young body probably just delt with it easier to.
Lool, that sounds interesting for the resulting product but for what I’m looking for maybe a lil one step forward two back kinda thing XP
Also 700 bux for a roto? I’m making one for like 25 or less lol. Deff would never be able to afford one of those on my “salary” x.x
Just thought I’d update everyone, thank you for just talking me into going ethanol/everyclear. Way less stressful. Hitting 90+% recovery on just basic distillation setup. 750ml was enough to recover a tonne and cost me 17 bucks after tax at my local shop. Worth it to just for not having to stress on doing a full purge =) (I don’t mind a lil nipper in my gummies, but the remainder will prob just evap off anyway.) Almost scarred of the solution I made, it’s like… Alot alot of cannabis concentrate re-concentrated down to like… a very small amount. Almost mind boggled how so much oil got picked up in so little everyclear. Gonna be fun testing this out ;p
After you do a few runs the everclear will have terpenes and other chlorophyll like compounds that leave a slightly green hue to the alcohol. Make sure to watch for that as it can hinder the extraction efficiency
Isopropyl alcohol is more toxic to your body(liver and brain) then ethanol, but its metabolites are not carcinogenic, whereas ethanol breaks down into acetaldehyde which is thought to be the main way alcohol consumption causes cancer.
