Cannabis Oil Extraction Question

I'm doing an extraction for the first time and I have a question regarding the process. After I've soaked the buds in alcohol how long will this alcohol solution keep before I need to distill it to evaporate the alcohol? Thanks.

You need to remove the plant material within minutes to limit chlorophyll pickup. The tincture will store months in a dark cool place.

Hi Fadedawg, Thanks for the reply. I don't have a problem with removing the plant material it was the next step I wasn't sure of. The water distiller I had intended to use to evaporate / distill the alcohol has broken down so I have to wait to get a new one. I'll have the"tincture", if that's what it's called, sitting there waiting to go in the distiller. This is the liquid that I was wondering if I could store for a while. As it will store for months in a dark cool place for a few months then I'll have no problem. Thanks again for your reply, I appreciate it.
