Hey Weezard, I really appreciate the feedback. I realize I may have been a little more critical of Rick than he deserves, because we do need people like that who are willing to make the stand for this stuff. And I will keep my eyes peeled for Graywolf and Skunkpharm in the future, and may look into some of the stuff they have on here.

In regards to your second post, that does make sense about the trichs getting knocked off and getting lost with the water and that being the main problem. I was hoping that just maybe running it through a couple un bleached coffee filters would prevent such a loss. As far as I understand it the micron rating on an average coffee filter is like 15 to 30 and I was hoping that would be small enough to prevent the trichs from sneaking through with the watery solution. I also figured there would be a lot stuck the the first coffee filter which I would probably just throw in with the remaining plant material when I do the ethanol extraction step. I hope that should prevent all or at least most of the content loss.

I say I hope because like 10 minutes ago I just broke up an ounce of some good herb and threw it in a jar with water for the first time actually trying it. Up untill now it's just been theoretical. So I guess we will see how it turns out huh? Lol
