i am ask me if Activated Charcoal can absorb the terps from Etoh after make 4 or 5 or more extraction of biomass. If is yes, maybe put in a boiling flask the AC and crude and distill the terps of from the AC/crude mixture?
crazy ideas.

Carbon filters can effectively scrub the smell from a grow space so I would assume activated charcoal can hold terps pretty effectively.

so maybe heat and vacum can strip the terps from AC
That might work, im not sure if the mechanism of adsorption onto activated carbon is a reversible process or not.
If you were willing to go to these lengths to capture terps, steaming the biomass with solvent might be a better option.
Solvent steam the biomass for terps, then extract and CRC. Recombine terps and crc extract, crazy ideas.
