why does my QWET look like dog shit..

Sidvicious1 · Aug 27, 2018

What's up guys, just ran my first QWET ethanol extraction. Brought everything to sub zero before the process. Filtered twice with unbleached coffee filters. Once after extract then again after a few hrs of winterizing in sub zero temps. I have no idea why it would look this way Thanks for the help guys.

need to shine a light through the bottom to give us a better idea, but likely just a bunch of chlorophyll and water solubles, you could try winterizing it or using another solvent, maybe butane to clean it up in a second extraction.

Did you winterize? I need to take a nap then rig a vacuum contraption up with the vacuum cleaner to defat my wash one more time under vacuum this time.

Not a good picture, but from here it looks beige, which is water, some remaining alcohol, and terpenes. Not to forget that the everclear is 5% water to start.
