Most fruits have organic acids, some sugars for taste & esters, some ketones and often isoprenoid & "essential oils" for flavors. It always pays to understand the specific flavor chemistry involved. I know a raspberry flavoured gin based in the UK takes a month or more to macerate and in my opinion isn't very flavourful. Masceration takes time, space and so i am told is inefficient. The chemical alternative is a high pH maceration to really degrade the skins, then a pH said: Whether these enzymes will function in a high ethanol environment is doubtful. Winemakers use certain 'pectinase' enzymes to extract fruit color and this should help your fruit flavor & color exaction in a lot of ways. In many fruits the color is tightly attache to the skin. You are more likely to get a 'pink' beverage, but you're unlikely to see any natural blue from blueberries, blackberries, juniper berries. You may need to control pH to acheive good color control. I understand that neutral beverage spirits tend toward a pH ~4 (acidic), and certainly mixed-drinks will be acidic, so this generally tends to push the anthocyanin class of colorants toward pink/red and away from blue/purple. Most fruit colors are phenolic compounds, and many are pH sensitive. The goal is to make a flavoured gin with fruit that has a natural colour, lets say raspberries. Which I truly value if the latter.Īnd yes - I hate pasteurized orange juice -) Have you had bad experiences from soxhlet extraction? or is this just your opinion. Maceration - more time, more mess, if I am to believe said person less efficient.Īs my wife says, "you are just bored" maybe true but this craft is surely about experimentation. I have had an opinion that 57c is a good liquid temp. I have a thermo port in the liquid path so i can monitor this and can hopefully influence this temp with power and coolant control. The temperature - I would presume the vapour would go for the path of least resistance - the condensor/dephleg and get condensed into a warm distillate, not a very hot liquid. Maybe just ethanol to produce the concentrated extract. The use of gin - as said above maybe not the best then. I have tasted the product and it is very nice, well to my palate anyway. I heard from the person/company I think you are referring to about one example where they increased the extraction efficiency of a berry by a significant amount, I do have contacts at the end producer so I will reach out and confirm their real world experience. ![]() The goal could be achieved using particular method, if gin in the boiler is a bad idea - and it sounds like it is then using ethanol to produce a concentrate that can be saved for compounding with gin may be better. I know a sloe gin producer that used to macerate for 6 weeks and the process isn't efficient. I know a raspberry flavoured gin based in the uk takes a month or more to macerate and in my opinion isn't very flavourful. Flavour doesn't carry through with distillation. I would never pay commercial prices for such equipment. Oh dear, maybe I shouldn't have already commissioned the build :-) it wasn't much money though. This is the whole point of the thing, extract the most amount of oil into the smallest amount of solvent. Why limit the amount of solvent? So that you can easily put it through a rotovap to remove the solvent. Or, oils from botanicals where a huge amount of botanical mass is required relative to the solvent (flowers). Keep in mind the common theme here - extraction of oils from what are typically very "stubborn" hard botanicals (roots, barks, seeds, etc). I've heard that cocoa nibs do very well using soxhlet as well. Though, at the end of the soxhlet extraction, you would run the solvent through a rotovap to separate the ethanol solvent from the cinnamon oil, yielding your pure product - which you would then reintroduce into new spirit to yield your finished product (hint, you would do this for product consistency purposes, where your base botanical might have a highly variable oil content). An example of an appropriate use of soxhlet extraction in our world would be to produce cinnamon oil - where you want to use a small amount of solvent to extract from a large botanical mass, and you need extended time and temperature to get a reasonable product yield of oil. ![]() ![]() ![]() If the command fails to run, explore the disc files and click on “setup.exe”. Then, click on the install “PowerDirector” option, and watch as it downloads the templates and menu. As soon as you insert the disc, you will see an “autorun window” command.

For instance, you can trim your video to reduce its duration. When you have a single project, you can split it to create two versions of lesser space.

Compressing an image is a distinct process from resizing an image, which involves changes the dimensions of a digital picture. When you compress a digital photograph or graphic, it maintains the same image resolution, but shrinks the amount of processing data that a computer uses to view or display that image. Image compression is the process of reducing a file's size while retaining its quality. Related: 15 Image File Formats (Plus When To Use Them) What is image compression? In this article, we discuss what image compression is, explain the benefits and explore 20 distinct image compression tool that you can use to optimize your website. Knowing about the various image compression tools available may assist you in choosing the best one based on factors like your operating system and the number of images you want to compress. Compressing these photos can help improve the load time for visitors to your website. Picasa too can do this if you add the picasa2flickr plugin.Many photographers or other professionals place images with large file sizes on their websites. ![]() Even Adobe's Lightroom will let you do that directly without you managing the intermediate files, it only asks what size you want to share them at. There are a number of tools to do that for you. In your case, what you want is to Export a version of your images for upload to Flickr. Size of shared images: This is the size of the images that you feel comfortable sharing, potentially limited by the platform (Flick, Picasa, etc) and your plan. While these are larger than your originals, the increase size does not reflect more details. These files get very big because they contain layer information that allows you to modify some of the work you have already done. Size of your working files: This the files you work in Photoshop (or similar traditional image editing applications). It is highly recommended these never be overwritten. This is the amount of data your camera has captured. Usually 5-10 MB for JPEGs and 10-24 MB for RAW files. Size of your images: That is the size of the output of your camera. I do wish to add that there should be a separation between the size of your images, the size of your in working files and the size of the images you share: You have already gotten plenty of good answers. You can reduce filesize by resizing your image to a smaller size by going to the Image menu and select Image size: ![]() For the purpose of posting to Flickr, unless you have a Pro account the practical maximum dimensions is 1024 pixels along the longest size, so there is little point in having a larger image than that. My 550D saves images at 5184 x 3456 pixels, which is almost always way more than I need. Resolution is the size of your image in pixels (or megapixels). When you set the JPEG quality, photoshop will estimate what the resulting filesize will be, enabling you to tailor this setting for the desired file size: I never set this to more than 10 and neither should you, and settings down as low as 8 are generally satisfactory for me. You will be prompted for a compression setting. You can control the filesize versus quality tradeoff in photoshop when selecting File and Save as. When you save an image as a JPEG, the quality of the image is degraded in order to make the file smaller. Always remember to keep an original uncompressed and unresized copy of your photo as well! Compression ![]() All other things being equal, I usually compress my images more rather than resizing them more, however Flickr has size limits that may affect your choice here. Experiment with both these settings until you get a balance between the two that works for you.
