Hello everyone,
I have made several small amounts of RSO, cooking the alcohol off quickly in a Pyrex measuring cup, placed inside a small CrockPot, filled with a little water to separate the measuring cup from the CrockPot.
I made a much larger amount this time, and decided to let the alcohol evaporate naturally. This has greatly reduced the fumes and fire risk, and I’m not on any strict time schedule.
I moved the mixture to a large, rectangular Pyrex container to maximize surface area, which speeds up evaporation.
After about 1/3 of the alcohol evaporated, around 12 hours in, I noticed very faint geometric formations on the surface. (See image).
Do you know what this is? It appears to be a crystalline structure, but also has the appearance of microscopic organisms.
Thanks!
