Hey guys, I'm relatively new to the forum and CO2 extraction. I appreciate people like you sharing information to help newbies like me!
I'm getting decent at running our extractor but am wondering what the best methods of purifying it post extraction might be. We've been doing isopropyl alcohol and winterizing to separate the waxes, then boiling off and recollecting the alcohol in a simple still.
I'm wondering if there are any better methods out there; I've been thinking centrifugation might be a good route to go, would that separate out the alcohol and oil in the process? Has anyone done centrifugation on raw CO2 extract?
We could also go the micron filtration route, but I'm less hopeful of that because I feel like it'd just be messy and eat away at our yields and cleanliness because of it.
Thanks for the thoughts and feedback, everything is helpful!
