Water AND ethanol extraction
    #27001324 - 10/24/20 02:09 PM (3 years, 3 months ago)

So I've been doing maple and honey hard candies with my ethanol extraction. Always wondering how can I improve the process. Then I read about people arguing for ethanol over water as the best solvent and vice versa.

Here's my thought:

Bath the shredded mushrooms in ethanol for 5-7 days, then pour in water and bring to a boil. The alcohol will evaporate leaving the extract behind. The boiling water does the rest of the extraction like a regular tea.

Filter the gunk.

Mix with honey, slowly bring to 300*F, water will evaporate from the honey, leaving the goodies behind, then pour in candy mold.

In the end, it's an ethanol AND water extraction that is preserved in hard candied honey.

I know theoretically bringing the alkaloids to 300*F may not be the best thing but so far, my ethanol-based maple candies felt pretty potent to me.

Thoughts?

(I have 20g soaking in alcohol right now. I'll post the results)
