So I thought I'd post them and ask some questions based off of them. [img:db99c12647]http://img264.imageshack.us/img264/4700/spicefreeze001zh4.th.jpg[/img:db99c12647] [img:db99c12647]http://img123.imageshack.us/img123/6933/spicefreeze002cz7.th.jpg[/img:db99c12647] I'm guessing the solvent (looks like Bestine tin on glass in pic 2) was evaporated down substantially before being put in the shot glasses, and was then heated to super-absorb the spice forming in the bottom of the evap. container. Then, placed in the shot glass and freezer, this is what happened. The impurities and small bit of yellow/brown waxy sludge appears to be separate from the white spice crystals. ---------------------------------------- NOW FOR THE REST OF THE STORY... what did this person do next? The story ends there-- with no impression of the next steps taken. Is this the stage where you remove the glass, and pour it through a coffee filter immediately, and harvest clean spice? Is this the "final stage" ? Or was this just an initial stage of good refinement... Any help and comment would be instructive (PS-- what a wonderful forum! )
