Crystals and Methanol Q's
    #8865829 - 09/02/08 01:13 PM (15 years, 5 months ago)

Hi
I am trying a Methanol extract of 4 used cakes that fruited really well, strong shrooms.  I have 99.95% Pure Virgin Methanol (some stuff can be reclaimed as it seems) anywho, after much reading I am wondering if crystals will precipitate during this soak and could remain trapped in the filter when I go for the 2nd soak.

I will keep the collected methanol from the 1st filter and pop it in the freezer while soak 2 happens then combine, this should precipitate crystals by virtue, right?

Any experienced extractors are welcome to help me out:) My main concern is crystal trapped in the filter/mush.

Thanks

you shouldn't have precipitation if MeOH is a good solvent for your product which I believe it is.  You'll always have trouble w/ trapped product in the organic matter, but can do nothing about it short of physical agitation/pulverization


Don't worry about it.  Product lost to filter is negligible.

the original methanol was clear as water and filtered was almost the same, only yellow...

I thought actives extraction was
1) soak in an OH (alcohol)
2) Filter out solids
3) Evap. alcohol

Yes evaporation will be the end process, i guess putting  it in a freezer help to seed crystals... im no chem student, but yes i will be evaporating it..
