Liquid Nitrogen and Centrifuge

I was wondering if anyone had experience with these. I was thinking of using the liquid nitrogen to tie up the water in the centrifuge to replace a winterization process? This would be run with butane and then into 190 everclear until all the gas evaporated, then in the centrifuge@ 20,000 RPM(but I could run as much as 32,000RPM).

nice idea but the results are not going to be what u want

1 liquid nitrogen is much much to strong to use in this process
water freeze at 32 f or 0c
ethanol freeze at -174f or -114c
(the cannabinoid oils i can not find a freeze temp reading just boiling )

and liquid nitrogen temp is -321f or -196c
as u see it is going to freeze the whole thing ......u are not going to be able to do anything with it .....it will all stay one solid mass untill the temps change allowing one to come off it ........the temp it makes is just too cold to work for our needs .......if u want to go extreme cold and still have working options u need dry ice ..........dry ice is -109f or -78.5c......locks the water up and lets ethanol stay liquid

as for spinning it ........think blood what happens when u spin it ......the different weights of what makes it up separates they form, lvls ..........are u equipped to extract and process it off .....i can not help u with the atomic weights of the maternal (not going to go that far down this rabbit hole) but if it was spined at those speeds it would break into lvls in the beakers u have to get to the right lvl and extract it out with out remixing the system

honestly it is easier to stick with the freezing the water in the frig and then pouring it tho 4 unbleached coffee filter (4 coffee filters should make a 18-15 micron screen trapping the water crystals) for u

To be honest the nitrogen evaporates fast enough I was more concerned with heads being knocked off during that process and as for the centrifuge I think if it's diluted enough with ethyl alcohol that I have a good chance to go with lower RPM and just spin out the waxes and leave the resin in solution. Pretty simple the denser materials go to the bottom, I've seen it plenty times, banna infused ruhm for example and plenty of clarified juices, but the 190 proof should aid me greatly in this scenario.
