ISOPROPYL ALCOHOL equivalent in OZ?


x3alann

Question

Hey all,

 

I'm thinking of making my own batch of cannabis oil. I've extensively watched alot of videos on youtube on how to do it, especially Rick Simpsons video's.

 

Now I'm looking for a suitable solvent similar thats readily availble in and around Sydney. I've looked at Methylated spirits (which has ethanol in it and some other small additives to stop people from drinking it...) and i've come across ISOCOL (which has isopropyl alcohol, water , AND fragrance.) Given this, i think ISOCOL would be the more suitable pick as it's closest to the US equivalent. But my question is, is this is a safe option? since it isnt 100% alcohol and has fragrance added to it. Will the heating process remove the fragrance?

 

Does anyone know if this is a suitable option? If not, what other options are available for us Aussie blokes to use as a solvent.

 

Thanks,

Alan

Every 2nd to 3rd home brew shop sells stills, the one here in town dose the one i have been to in hervey bay dose and the one at nambour dose as well.

 

They are in a lot more home brew shops than you think as well as all the online brewing shops that u can legaly buy...

You can get it from some hardware stores but I’ve only ever bought small spray bottles of it... you could ask if they r able to order in bulk amounts? Or you could try contacting signage companies... they use it for vinyl application on most signs so they may be able to help or at least give you the name of their supplier.

This explains the laws around distilling your own alcohol. I know plenty of people doing this.

I use organic oil extraction liquid 99% ethanol. I have seen it for sale in Nimbin and Byron Bay, Tbh though I am moving back to bubble hash for concentrates. Never felt comfortable with solvents.
