Hello, Everclear isn't the cheapest thing so instead of cooking my Everclear tincture down to make FICO and just letting it evaporate off I want to see if I can collect it. I was going to purchase this distiller from Amazon to reduce and try to reclaim some of my alcohol is this how I would do it does anybody know?

That link didn't work for me, have you ever thought of trying one of these to reclaim your alcohol:

SourceTurbo

It didn't really work out for me, as alcohol extraction isn't my preferred method, but it does reclaim about 90 to 95% of the alcohol.

Sorry i fixed the link.... I seen the SourceTurbo but didn't want to spend that much money.

I cook it down using a American Brand Fristaden Lab Magnetic Stirrer Hot Plate sh-3 and love how well it does at reducing it to FICO...

Make enough batches and the Source Turbo pays for itself...

Graywolf's site is _the_ site for extraction info and an
engineer who can communicate technical info and yet write like this:

"At least the old farts and fartesses amongst us already know that anything that tastes good is either bad for you or fattening,"

is a very rare find among cannabis websites.
