And you get only 1-1/2 cups of concentrate out of all that? Where do the other 6-1/2 cups of water go? Do they all evaporate during the boil or get soaked up by the previously dry flowers? If so, couldn't one squeeze some of that soaked up water out of the flowers again to get more concentrate?<br />Thank you in advance for your answer,<br />Uncle JackAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
