I believe I have a soxhlet extractor arriving today - I had posted about this earlier but had to replace the condenser, turned out the best way to do that was just to buy an entire replacement unit. I wonder about the odds of delicate glassware like this arriving unbroken via UPS - they sometimes handle things with a heavy hand.
 
Yes! Arrived in one piece! Extraction lab one step closer to reality.

@SamiterkiW just sent all the way across the world a package that I’m gonna be unraveling for a while that includes/ and I think this is just some of the little samples

1. Fushigi Brunei Kyere
2. Fushigi Malinau
3. Fushigi Papua
4. Imperial Oud Nha Trang Ultima
5. Fushigi Nha Trang
6. Craft Oud King Vijaya
7. Ant Nest Grade Malaccensis (closest to AA Blue Malay)
8. Special Malinau (Vanillic)
9. Ant Grade Wood Malaccensis (close to AA Mahkota)

I think I need to take some time off from work and just have a couple days to sit here with a toothpick and a notepad 🙂

Better yet, record your thoughts as voice notes on the phone, and then transcribe them! Get more of the stream of consciousness response!
 
Glass stopper, vacuum tubing, and a couple of small plastic pieces coming (I hope). When they get here I should be able to start running the rotary evaporator / concentrator and get making some absolutes and resinoids!
 
Inbound: one red rubber vacuum hose, the only thing holding me back on the rotovap at this point.
