Jar broke in heat bath

Migrated topic.

Quick question, there was a mason jar that was being warmed up in a water bath that the bottom broke out of.:shock: The contents were post defat ACRB, already added SH to ph ~13 and was warming to start pulls. Contents mixed with the bath water cleanly, but is now obviously much more diluted.
1. Can it be reduced by boiling down or will the contents also evap?
2. If it can be reduced, will the steam be dangerous due to the content of SH?
3. Or should the new, diluted solution be brought to correct ph and do more pulls and let plenty more naph evap before freeze precipitation?


Thanks
 
Hahaha this happend to me so many times.. its amazing every time..:)

Just put all the liquid in different jars and check so the PH is good then pull as usual.

And be happy that you had a heat bath and not just a sink haha
 
If pH is increased to pull as was done in OP it will be fine, but to make sure that the solvent is shaken well through the large volume and allowed to settle several times. Keep solution until yield is recorded, if it is lower than past yields more extractions may be required.

Thanks La Alquimista, All went well, just had A lot of Pre-evaperating of Napth due to the new increased volume.
