purify rubbing alcohol

That actually helps me out because I've been buying huge bottles of iso because all the place I shop ever has in small bottles is the 70 percent stuff. Good to know thanks.

Thanks for the info dude. Helps alot.

SO you did use this salt water extraction method? and it work as stated? You did this before rinsing the hash correct?

yes correct

wouldn't denatured alcohol be better than rubbing alcohol?

yes. but i had some extra rubbing alcohol laying around and a small amt. of trim to make hash from.

It depends on the denaturant. Some aren't very volatile and would stay in the evapd. extract.
The other, more subtle difference is that while isopropanol is rather polar as solvents go ... it has rather poor "solvency". Ethnol has quite high solvency (almost as high as I am right now) and even on a quick cold filtration, the ethanol will pick up more inactive material than isopropanol would.
Eeber yabble yabble ... if this were a Betty Crocker recipe and you stuck a toothpick into me, it'd come out clean ... cn
