We haven't tried ethyl acetate, but looking at the numbers it should work well, albeit expensive.What about ethyl acetate? It has the advantage of not mixing with water. You can use still moist material and the solvent won't be absorbed like it will with dry. It can only reach the surfaces where the trichs are.
THCA is actually more soluble in polar than non-polar solvents anyway, because it's a carboxylic acid. THC itself is much more soluble in non-polars than THCA so if using butane or hexane it might pay to decarb the material first. And about the ethyl acetate, I don't know why it's so costly. Aside from that, it would be one of the most preferable. You'd need to recycle it to make it practical.We haven't tried ethyl acetate, but looking at the numbers it should work well, albeit expensive.
