Thanks Purk.. I hope to never see another friend go through pancreatic cancer, or anyone else for that matter. It's crazy seeing a 200lb guy you know turn into 80lbs of skin and bones to say the least.
I did manage to get him some oil, but it wasn't very potent. It came in a nice labelled jar, can't remember who made it. It was more for nausea I think. I really wanted to get him the real deal cancer cure shit.
You're nuts making that in an apt man lol.. That's an outdoors kind of job dude lol.
I've got my technique down... it took some thinking. The first time I just opened a window and boiled it down, that was around the time my landlord let me know I'd reeked up all five floors of the building. Not sure if it was that or the supremely stinky Purple People Eater I had going or both, probably both.
The trick is to look at how you distill water from piss when you're lost in the desert... I just took a crockpot, poured the oil//alcohol in there, and put a cup in the center, then inverted a stainless steel/glass lid that fit over it and put a pot full of ice on top of that, and turned it on... helps to wrap it all up with aluminum foil too to cover leaks (do NOT use a washcloth, something disgusting gets extracted out into the oil, smells sour!!!). It's inefficient, but the alcohol is distilled into the cup, leaving the bottom of the crockpot covered in hot oil.
If you water cure it first most of the odor goes down the drain with the water.
I picked some up as I have been eyeing hexane myself. It is a non polar solvent like BHO but in a liquid state.
But I could be wrong
