Before something bad happens I'd like to get this clarified...
With my ratios worked out I figure my mixing "jar" will be sized @ 1.5L for a Noman extraction. I figured the best option would be a 1.5L wine bottle...
- figured glass "safer" than plastic
- tek specifies glass mixing container as well
- since NP would be extracted w/ glass baster, the long neck would help
- already have plenty of these lying around anyway
Then I've been reading a few threads here about how some ppl have had their glass jars or bottles burst, making a nasty mess...
What causes the pressure buildup? Is it shaking the lye & water or does it happen when you add the naphtha? Is this even a common thing? And what methods can be used to work around this safely?
