However, when glycerin is utilized in a dynamic contemporary non-tincturing based innovative processing methodology it has been shown to not only extract a wide range of compounds, it is widely accepted, both in literature and innovative applications, to extract many constituents and compounds previously thought not able to do and to extract those constituents and compounds at high concentrations and potency. This includes most alkaloids, glycosides, volatile oils, waxes, resins, gums, balsam, sugars (especially as non-denatured linked and cross-linked polysaccharides), vitamins, and minerals, all with none of the denaturing and inert rendering effects alcohol possesses.[8][9][10]

As detailed From "Herbal Preparations and Natural Therapies" by Debra St. Claire:

Found this on Wikipedia under glycerites.. Inspired but have limited supplies to do any thorough testing. Maybe some one else will be inspired to do some experiments. Also everything I read says ca(oh)2 is soluble in glycerin, please site source if it has the same solubility as water.
 
One has a cannabis tincture in vegetable glycerin. One put a tiny bit in a little glass vial then added a little naphtha. Obviously they stayed seperated, the viscous glycerin at the bottom and naphtha on top. But above the naphtha there was a very thin layer of.. Well something.. Same color as the tincture. Used a pipette to pull the top 2 layers and put into a shot glass. Wasn't expecting to pull anything from the tincture, just wanted to use it because the gold color makes it easier to see separation. Going to evaporate naphtha..

All at room temp. But did a warm bath when the 2 were mixed with no visible changes.
 
The Complete Technology Book on Minerals & Mineral Processing says glycerol makes ca(oh)2 up to 22 times more soluble.. If I'm reading this correctly

Here.
