This might be interesting to some of you. I used up most of the rest of my NC in this video from my 100g mega batch I made a few weeks back. This is product from the acid/salt method:

Very cool!!!

I have some close family that may enjoy a prank or two like that .

 

How much more more work was the solid nitrate method. Did you use a excess of h2so4 to make the stirring easier?

I used ammonium nitrate for this batch. Using potassium nitrate for this amount will not give a high quality product because of all the solids in the mix hindering the reaction. I do not stir, but rather react the cotton in a large glass tray, flipping the mat of cotton over once or twice in the course of a few hours. It's going to be a difficult process now with the weather warming up. A cooling bath and very slow addition of the cotton will be required.
