Good to know! I’m assuming the isopropyl just kills off all the bad stuff?

The main reason for isopropyl is to make “The Wash” this is what the wash does
With a wide range of chemical and organic solvents , most commonly butane, propane, ethanol and CO2 . This process works by dissolving the trichome heads in the liquid solvent which is separated from the plant material and purged (evaporated off) in a vacuum oven or dessicator and vacuum pump to ensure we are left with a pure resin extract with as little residual solvent as possible . Solvents are divided into two groups, polar and non-polar , with non-polar solvents like butane readily dissolving non-polar compounds from the plant, in this case the oils and lipids making up the trichome heads. Polar solvents like Ethanol however will extract both non-polar and polar compounds, meaning water-soluble compounds like chlorophyll are more likely be extracted alongside cannabinoids and terpenes.
