botanicals, stop the process early while the contents are still a loose like an easy flowing liquid. For a base oil to
make different forms of concentrates wait until the contents are the viscosity of cooking oil or warm honey. It’s
completely up to your preference.
STEP 7: How to Stop the Process
• Pushing and releasing the illuminated green button one time will stop the process and automatically release
the vacuum. There can be a delay of several seconds before the vacuum is released so patience may be required.
• Remove the lid and secure in the lid holster.
TIP: There will probably be some condensed ethanol remaining on the lid ready to drop back into the
kettle. To avoid this, refrain from tipping the lid to the side while its over the kettle.
TIP: Having a clean, lint-free cloth handy to wipe down the inside of the lid immediately after removing
it can make keeping the equipment clean easier.
• Slide the kettle backwards to disengage from the mounted plug bracket.
• Harvest your oil from the kettle using a silicone spatula.
IMPORTANT:
Never use anything that can scratch the surface of the kettle, even a small scratch will
quickly lead to a widespread failure of the kettle surface and not covered by warranty.
• If you find that you stopped the process too early you can put the kettle back in place, start the machine, and
run it a little longer until you achieve the outcome you desire.
PERFORMANCE NOTES:
• EtOH PRO is tuned to operate in an environment with an ambient temperature of 72°F-75°F. Higher
temperature environments will adversely effect performance.
• Once the vast majority of ethanol is evaporated off there may be a minor temp overshoot, but it should be
quite small. Minor overshoots should not harm the EtOH PRO, impair the process, or pose a safety hazard.
