hello friend, great job on deciding to do your own extraction. however, i must say, as i am also fairly new to extraction, to use Q21Q21 tek 2. it is unbelievably simple, attached are some of my results. it is very simple, very hard to mess up if you follow the instructions
EDIT: also Q21Q21's tek is very safe, foodsafe all except for the solvent (naphtha). do the second tek, the fluffy white funfest
