Capsaicin extraction using a Soxhlet extractor 🔥 Getting the spicy stuff from chilli peppers!

Join me in this video where I show you how to extract Capsaicin from 🔥superhot🔥 chilli peppers using a soxhlet extractor. Equipment I used: Soxhlet Extractor: https://geni.us/soxhlet (Amazon) https://www.banggood.com/custlink/3mG... (Banggood) Distillation kit: https://geni.us/distillation Lab Stand: https://geni.us/labstand (Amazon) http://bit.ly/labstand (Ebay) Distillation Kit 250ml: https://www.banggood.com/custlink/K3G... (Bangood) Anti-bumping granules: http://bit.ly/antibumping Vials: https://geni.us/5mlvials More info: Instead of ethanol you could use Everclear if you can get hold of it. Instead of distillation using the method I used (to recover the ethanol) you could use a vacuum distillation process. There are a few ways to recover the solvent Ideally with a Soxhlet extractor you would use a specialised thimble to hold the dried chillies. However the thimble is expensive! I did try using coffee filter paper, but the best results I got doing it the way I did in this video.
