Well... we could crossover 3 different threads by bringing in your mentioning making 'essential oils' in that recent one, and maybe combine it with this thread's notion and rather than boil, go with my inhaling of beer thing, but more accessible say:
You extract essential oils from grains and hops and put it into a vaping fluid and sell it for $30/unit and that'll get rid of the crowd of hipsters who pay that much for a bottle of trendy junk in that other thread.
...just a thought.


EDIT: Forgot to say: No one drinks liquid any more! That is the old-fasioned way and you need never do it again.
Inhale your beer!!

You brew with them, dear Henry, dear Henry...

well yooper did want something like that! and if you back 'alcoholize' it with something stronger then ethanol like tert-amyl alcohol? maybe you're onto something?

I've done something like that using steam extraction. I have to admit, when going out to the craft beer places, I dab a bit of that on my cheeks after shaving.

pretty fancy setup @passedpawn , what is that thing that sorta looks like an addition funnel?

That last picrture? It's a oil separator. You'll see that there is a water release on the right. So, it can only fill up to the level of that release, which then releases water. The floating stuff remains. I suppose it's that's not a good description, but it allows you to remove water while the oil accumulates in that thing.

chemistry broth seperator/gravy seperator.....it's all clear now.....thanks! but does it have a cool chemistry name? in case i ever need one?

That's a really sweet setup! Can you make hoppy gin that way and would that even taste good?

Everyone on here thinks they know everything.. I'm done.. Suppose to be for rational conversation but its not.

Well duh. You ask two home brewers how to do something you get three answers. You  tell a home brewer how to do something you immediately get kicked down the pit.

FTFY

distill 1 gallon from a batch...collect it till it's at about i'd 'guess' 50% ABV...then add it back to another gallon of the same beer....

i'd recomend seperating the 1 gallon to be distilled and boost the ABV with some extra sugar first though...

i've done it, and i think it could be a new DiIPA style really, really hoppy, but the fortified beer addition, kinda gives it a cooked taste...some may like it, i did...

The OP set his stall out with the wording of his thread title! He could have gone down the " Is it really necessary to boil hops to make a good beer" and in doing so create a good debate but instead went down the contentious "see me I'm the man and I going to stir things up route" ... then complains about people being know all's
If your intention is to include forum members and engender debate then he set his post up to do the exact opposite in my opinion . I will say there is on any forum a few who do come over as know all's but that is usually just a posting style. For my three pence worth the presentation on how to make beer without boiling your hops could be titled " How to use a shed load of expensive hops to make beer without boiling them and spend a load of money on extra equipment doing it "

not a bad post you sound like an expert on whirlpooling! just modify one of these to sit at the bottom, then when you whirl pool....all the hops will collect in it...
