Well, surprise, surprise. I just received a bottle of Everclear 190 as a gift. Not a big deal to some of you but 151 is all that is legal in my state so the 190 is a rare bird.
I emailed KleenX and asked them if they would ship to my state and, if so, what was the expected lead time. I have not heard back for 2 days. I don't order stuff from companies who don't bother to answer emails. Their shipping and service will, no doubt, be as neglected.
I also found a bunch more suppliers for 100% Ethyl. A quick search will show you a number of valid distributors. Do not get Denatured. And, make sure it's real CH3-CH2-OH. It's not cheap from any source I have found. And, the tax is going to be applicable unless you have an exemption from The BATF.
Everything I have been reading seems to confirm that there is no such thing as 100% Ethyl Alcohol outside the laboratory, anyway. Once it is exposed to the atmosphere it sucks up about 3 to 5% in water. So, in the end.....you have Everclear. LMAO
I may have a regular source for this so I will start learning with the Everclear and if I ever get my hands on the 200 proof, I'll be more ready to compare.
Not real sure how to do this. Need to read up at SkunkPharm. Looks like just a quick 3 minute soak (couple shakes) and filter through a XXu screen. Not real sure what size. 25 micron seems to be popular but I'm not sure how many trics that will filter out. I wouldn't expect all the trics to completely dissolve and transport with the Everclear. I would think a small amount of the trics will just get knocked off and wash in with the Everclear. I was thinking something between 45 microns and 99 microns.
After that, just let it evap and..... I don't know any more. I think I will try a smokable product the first time. Wax or shatter. Or, just dry it completely and smoke it as hash.
I will do edibles later after I get the hang of it.
I'll let you know if I hear from KleenX.
