Step 4: Soak the components in alcohol

Step 6: Pour the alcohol solution and heat it

Pour the alcohol solution containing the dissolved regrind into a Pyrex dish.

Heat the dish on a hot plate at the lowest possible temperature.

Step 7: Allow the regrind to air dry

Once the liquid has completely evaporated, let your regrind sit for a day to air dry thoroughly.
