Soxhlet Extraction Capsaicin out of hot peppers! (2013x18)

:

Sorry about the audio guys, This was way back when i was making videos completely on my cellphone! I used 90% methanol 10% h20 as a solvent. That final product was 10ml of capsaicin oil, I put some on a toothpick and it burned my lips for 20 minutes D: What else can i do with this interesting piece of equipment?
