Need ethanol/everclear reclaimer??

    So after having tried a few different methods I decided my favorite method for making concentrates is to doing Everclear wash.

    But man that stuff is not cheap, even though I can drive 3 miles to get it.

    I've been trying to use Google but can't find anything. I know there has to be some kind of a reclaimer made for doing this.

    I'm a personal grower, so I'm not trying to break the bank either. Not afraid of DIY stuff either

    Suggestions?

    Hang in here, there are folks that have and use them- they will be along. I use my ISO 3 Quartermaster.

    Wait..... basically I guess all I need is an alcohol distiller???

    I guess would just distill the wash, and scrape the bottom of the still out to retrieve the concentrate....makes sense

    I use a clone of this $300 GreenOilMachine for larger batches Green Oil Machine
    I got the clone from walmart.com for $130 about a year ago, but the price has doubled.

    Extractcraft Source is a smaller volume device ($600) that distills under low pressure around temp 100F.

    I guess I could just use a homemade still right?

    I mean, I can make a still for cheaper than that.

    Yeah I've already decided, I'm just going to make probably a 6-quart pressure cooker still make my wash and then just evaporated in there and scrape the bottom of it out.

    Has nobody done a homemade still write-up on any of these forums? I can't be the only friggin hillbilly around here lol
