Hello
I was wondering if anyone out there had any experience to aid me. After reading that ethanol is a inferior solvent to extract THC CBV etc.. from cannabis matter as compared to methanol, isopropyl alcohol, and acetone I'm left wondering if solvent A (not less than) 99.99% anhydrous isopropyl alcohol or solvent B acetone would result with the "cleanest" oil/hash remaining. I realize doing it this way will not give me a pure product but after being so pleased using 100 proof vodka for a similar extraction I must attempt this again. I absolutely hate the man made chemical ethanol and am pleased to not have to support this industry but I am not sure which of the two alternatives are best. Thanks again
