Quick backstory. I had moved away from tinctures etc… to go to vaping but its looks like I will need take the majority of my medication via these methods again. Tinctures gummies etc…
I didn’t want to clog up the tincture thread with a long post that’s about to follow.
I’m very familiar with the GD we all make and use here along with turning that into a consumption method of our choice, Tinctures, edibles, sublingual spray, topicals etc…
So I headed over to future 4200 where all the cannabis industry professionals tend to hang out and share their latest findings, methods and techniques, lab reports etc… and stumbled across a new and refined way for extraction.
All credit goes to @MimiEmu over at Future 4200. for this new refined and much faster & refined method for FECO.
MimiEmu also references others in the community who have helped him refine this method and shared results etc… So a BIG shout out to all of those involved
Only use food grade ethanol ( Everclear etc…)for extraction regardless of the other options that are outlined by MiniEmu’s . DO NOT USE ISO. I’m posting this for the method only
This is the thread I’m referring too. This thread is very informative in and of its self. His findings are backed up with Lab test results
This is the link to his home page where it explains the new tech.

A word of caution. There is some controversy regarding the ISO as his main solvent and the safety of that over at the future4200 forums. Most leaning to ethanol as the safer option. I have seen that MiniEmu references ChatGPT for the answers. Let me be clear ChatGPT is very often incorrect for factual information. You must cross reference this output from ChatGPT with a reputable source. Do your own research for the solvent of your choice. I will continue to use Ethanol and would NOT recommend other solvents
I have taken screenshots of everything and downloaded the video from YT in case they are removed (we know how YT can be)
If they are ever removed I can upload them somewhere else.
If you guys and gals want me to upload the screenshots to this thread I’m also happy to do that.
To add to this post I have also come across more very valued sources of information that I think people here would really love. They are also active on Future4200.

This post in particular caught my attention with the room temp extraction and decarb which is how I used to make my tincture. I was always under the impression that we are decabred after 3 to four months but looks we are only 60 to 68% decarbed and at 8 months we are 90% decabred
If you want me to add this to the existing tincture thread I’m happy to merge it but it might get lost.
The rabbit hole is deep but lots of great information to be gleaned. Should keep you busy for while.
