  Came for the science, stayed for the awesome descriptions. &quot;Laboratory-grade wood&quot;, &quot;decapitated, and chemically processed, tree corpses&quot;, etc.

  A simple suggestion: get cheese cloth for those squeezing needs! It&apos;s easily available, and specifically designed to make those squeezing steps much easier than they would be with a more tightly woven cloth. 😊
