tgif Posted May 14, 2019 Share Posted May 14, 2019 Simple question - how should I handle dry botanicals before distillation to rid them of dust? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tgif Posted June 5, 2019 Author Share Posted June 5, 2019 Or should I assume they are never 'distilled over'? Just thinking they surely must contain dirt or dust and I'm wondering if this is safe to put into my pot. Thanks. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Foreshot Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 No dirt/dust will come over in the distillate. The only things in the distillate will be volatiles that have boiling points near or less than water. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silk City Distillers Posted June 5, 2019 Share Posted June 5, 2019 Just find a sieve/screen that is small enough to permit the dust/bits to fall out, but not the botanicals. Don't bother rinsing, it'll be a mess. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
