Once you concentrate your extract, your product can be used to make other products like butter, coconut oil, MCT oil, chocolate, bacon grease, suppositories, glycerine tincture, gummies, and so on. If you concentrate and let the ethanol boil off, this is a fire hazard, and will get expensive. That is why I prefer a system that will recover the ethanol. This is what I use:

By changing the setup I can filter, concentrate, recover solvent, make tinctures, oil infusions, decarb cycles and more. It takes advantage of physical parameters such as temperature, pressure, agitation to facilitate extraction clean and efficient.
