Note - I am familiar with Codeine CWE and understand that the more clear the better for the final product.
My question - Approximately how much (in percentage) of the paracetamol/APAP resides in the "sludge" after cooling the initial stirred up liquid?
The reason I ask is - typically after the first filtration there is a cloudy liquid. It seems to take 3-4 filtrations to get it pretty clear. If say 75% of the APAP is in the sludge (and let's say it's a standard 32 Box of Co-Codamol) then only 4g of APAP remains in the solution after just one filtration, regardless of the cloudiness. If one was to ingest just 1/4 of the liquid, it would only be 1g of APAP and thus safe.
Anyone have an idea? Anyone not go to full clearness of solution every time?
Many thanks.
TL;DR
Multiple filtrations take time/are annoying. If removing APAP is the key, is enough stuck in the sludge to make even a cloudy solution safe?
