A rotary evaporator is used for rapidly stripping off large volumes of solvent, typically under vacuum. One key datum we need to know is the size of the evaporating flask.Tbh, judging by the water bath it sounds like it's far too big for the type of extractions normally envisaged here. See:DMT Nexus Attitude - 2.10 No commercial-scaled extractions and reckless "spreading"A rotary evaporator alone wouldn't be the first piece of equipment I'd suggest starting a lab with, especially not an oversized one like that. It sounds more like something that would get used for pilot-scale pharmaceutical development. Sell it and spend the proceeds on something more useful.
