High pressure CO2 and heat?

Curcumin and Piperine are a good idea and one which we will be doing more experimentation. So far we’ve only picked up Piperine for experimentation, but will add Curcumin to the list.

We are typically under 100ppm.

How deep is the film that you are purging and at what point did you cease purging?

How are they testing it? It would almost have to be a head space test, because the alcohol injection spike would cover the residual alcohol using a standard test.

The important thing is to keep the film thickness thin

If you are purging without vacuum, I would use the same 130F.

Under -29.5″ Hg vacuum, I use 115F.

I had my head in a vacuum at the time. Without vacuum assist, you have to rely on your sense of taste and smell to determine when the solvent is all gone.

You open the cold trap and pour it out afterwards. It sets in its own ice bath and has coolant pumped through it from the ice bath, or antifreeze from a tank in a deep freezer.
