So I saw some people on a livecast talking about it. It's called "extract craft" and you get pretty solid outcome apparently. They showed some shatter they made with it and it look pretty good. I'm just wondering how it chills the ethanol to -4°F. As that's the only way to avoid chlorophyll and other unwanted contaminants.

I didn't know this, I use acetone to pull the oil and I just stick it in the deep freezer over night but it doesn't get that cold. Maybe after the deep freezer I can put it in a dry ice bath to lower the temp even further

Yeah and if you extract at -40°F you'll have less lipids and other unwanted waxes if any.
One reason why I think ethanol should be an industry standard. Also it's Less flammable then other solvents,easily sourced, and has way less restrictions. One of these days I want to pick up a commercial ethanol extractor. One day lol.
Also I think my deep freezer gets to around -4°F. But I have a dial on the bottom I can use to change it. I have thought about jerry rigging up some sort of manual,drip,ethanol extractor lol.
