I’m lettin mine vape off naturally a couple days, it’s lightening up in color some and I have stuff in bottom of jar. It’s pretty good, made some gummies, way too small molds. Went for the 7.5 weed leaf mold, ordered today, thinking bout trying the 15 ml caramel cube mold lol

I'll run mine through the rice cooker to reduce 1-1/4 gallons down to 1-1/2 qts.
I'll run it until an oil slick starts to appear on the surface.

No I did not reclaim this round, it all blew out the window.
It takes 20lbs of ice and half a day sometimes longer of condensating it out to reclaim
Just throwing out food for thought again...
Has anyone else looked into these type of units for reclaiming your EC?

Amazon product

I borrowed a friend of mines that did not have the temperature control option on it.
I did the job well and reclaimed my EC.
As I was making FECO, taking it all the way down to just the oil, I didn't care at what temp is was heating to.
I would think if you wanted to just do a reduction, it would be better to be just heating to the boiling point of the alcohol. (or at least that's what I have read)

Cheers,

Hey Willie, I've never thought of one of those for this purpose.
Ethanol boils at about 170*f, evidently the rice cooker I use must just be right about there and I get a soft rolling boil from it. And use a small fan to blow over the surface towards an open window.
When I use a glass distillation apperatus the heat is from a mantle and surrounds the glass flask and if I let the temp spike too fast the ethanol flash boils and shoots out the condenser, a "really big" mess lol.
In this apperatus i usually use boiling chips to prevent it.

And here we have a full pint of crude sludge tincture from 1 gallon of ethanol and 1 pound of flower.
User's beware lol. View attachment 109385
I did a little figuring just out of curiosity sake.
1 lb = 453g
Assuming 20% THC
So, 453 x 200 = 90,600 mg of THC total
Assuming 90% extraction into the EC.
90,600 x 0.9 = 81,540 mg of THC

There are 473ml in 16 fluid ounces.
Take 81,540 divided by 473 = 172mg of THC per ml.
There are 29.57ml per fluid ounce.
172mg of THC per ml x 29.57 = 5,086mg of THC in a 1 oz shot glass.

So, I think we can all agree that "User's beware lol" is an understatement... Holy ? !!!
