I'll be darned, found an awesome extraction vessel

[null24]

Performed a search and to my surprise, because i thought i recalled one, can't find a 'what's a good extraction vessel? " thread, so...

Found this in a recycling bin. I'm forever using mason jars, being unable to find a big enough vessel and well, they kinda suck for extraction, become brittle and have that rubber liner in the lid. This puppy is three quarts, so a tad bigger than the 2000ml of aqueous solution i usually have but maybe for a little bigger one. I like the fact that it has a universal threaded top so i can find a metal cap that fits. Its a juice company named for a certain west coast town on 101that's full of hippies.

I want some of that apple juice I've been trying to find a vessel for so long.. no luck

Looks just like a 2LT lab bottle that I've been using. That will do you really well.
Good find as It'll probably help a lot of others out in the process.

Great find! I love my apple juice jugs and if you need spare lids... most wine supply stores sell ones that fit these jugs along with venting lids if desired.

One might also call it a flagon. Round here we fill 'em with cider ("apple cider" - as if there were any other sort...)

i've used 4L amber reagent bottles for years, great for cactus extractions.
that cider bottle will work similarly. :thumb_up:

That's the exact same style jug that i've used for years, except mine was a wine jug; 2L. Doing 100g extractions in those works well, especially siphoning the NPS off the top (with the thin neck you can nearly get all of it).

I have used those same bottles with great success.

I have also used the refillable 64oz "growler" beer bottles that some liquor stores sell. They looked at me kinda funny when I asked how much it would cost for an empty one, but otherwise they are cheap and quite useful.

Also, a delicious cheapest brand of table wines come in those bottles, metal cap and all. :d
