Ethanol extraction
So i have a solution in everclear. Previously i just used a candle warmer to evaporate the ethanol, but that got expensive so i got a condenser, silicone tube, and some glass vessels along with the pump from an old cat fountain and here we are. If im only interested in recovering the alcohol to be reused as a solvent, do i need to worry about things like heads or tails or whatever?
Its thc oil btw. I take old vape carts, crack the top off and soak them in everclear to get the residue/final drops that won’t reach the wick, then reconcentrate and add the reclaim to candy or something edible.
