Today's THC extraction was a significant improvement over my first attempt.

My second run at this process yielded much better results. During my initial extraction, I made the mistake of letting the water distillation phase run too long - though even with that timing issue, the results were still solid.

This time around, I dialed in the process by stopping the distillation when approximately 80% of the ethanol remained in the distiller. The concentrated material that remained measured just under 10mL, which I then transferred to a bottom heat plate for the final evaporation step.

I've found that a simple coffee machine works perfectly for this entire process - it handles both the initial ethanol and cannabis filtration well, and provides the ideal gentle heat needed to evaporate the remaining ethanol from the final distillate.
