It looked fairly white, there was definitely oil left over, even after a defat step. The naptha and basic solution where heated together, and were being mixed throughout the entire heating process.

I don't believe for second doing heated pulls helps extract from the plant, but rather assists in transfering more alkaloids over to the non polar. I got quite a bit of oil to drop out of the solution from a cooling and cold water wash. I've been in town all day so I haven't gotten to harvest the yield quite yet.

I may find some suprises lurking in the bottom though. I have definitely gotten cleaner results from room temperature pulls, but it takes sooo much more solvent pulling room temp with naptha.

Heating a small amount of naptha and mixing it well, I didn't need to evap as I did with the room temp pull. Within 30 minutes the heated pull had a nice, thick layer of spice already formed at the bottom. The room temp pull did not so I evapped it quite a bit.
