When making tinctures the choice of alcohol is a primary element in the quality and success of the final product. In the case of organic cane alcohol that is a popular choice for tinctures due to its natural base and delicate sweetness. Made from sugarcane this alcohol is what some in the sustainable health practices community turn to.

First up in the process of making RSO with Extractohol you will do the prep work that includes gathering all required ingredients and equipment. You’ll need top quality cannabis that is very rich in THC and Extractohol that will be used as the solvent. Also note to have proper ventilation as it is a must in this process because of the flammable alcohol. Also grind the cannabis fine to increase the surface area for the best results, and in turn it will improve the extraction. Then once that is done put the cannabis in the Extractohol and let the alcohol do the work of dissolving the cannabinoi
High proof alcohol is chosen for tinctures since it extracts both water and alcohol soluble compounds. Efficiency of the extraction process improves as alcohol content increases in the solvent. In the UK, usual alcohol options for tinctures include grain alcohol, vodka, and neutral spirits. Yet not every alcohol available in markets reaches the proof levels needed for tinctures. Many users ask about the highest proof alcohol available for tincture preparation.The strongest alcohol commonly found in the UK is 96% ABV, equal to 192 proof. This purity level is mostly achieved with neutral grain
Not everyone selects 200 proof grain alcohol when preparing tinctures at home. Some prefer vodka or other lower-proof alcohols depending on expected tincture results. Personal taste and the type of herbs being extracted influence the decision. For concentrated and long-lasting tinctures, 200 proof grain alcohol is the main choice. Purity of alcohol is another key factor in making tincture decisions. Grain alcohol usually contains fewer impurities than most high-proof alcohol alternatives. That makes it effective in both medicinal tinctures and culinary tinctures. Neutral taste of grain alcoho
One kind of high concentration alcohol is what we call 200 proof food grade ethanol. The term “200 proof” used here indicates that the ethanol is pure alcohol with no water content, in other words it is a 100% alcohol by volume. Also the label “food grade” means that the ethanol meets very strict safety standards and guarantees its safety for use when put to proper application. While both 190 and 200 proof ethanols are very concentrated they do have different uses and features. In the case of 190 proof ethanol it is a bit less pure and it is seen used in industry or as a solvent. Also 200 pro
