Avocado Pit Powder: Collect avocado pits. For reference, 3 pits= 1/2 cup powder. Wash and dry them. Place in oven for 2 hours at 200F.
Cut up pits into small pieces and blend in blender. Place mix back into the oven for 2 hours at 200F. The mixture will be a darker brown once baked. Blend in blender until powder consistency.
Add 177ml of hot water (70-80C) and 19.5ml Vinegar in a blender. Stir at low speed in the blender.
Add 30g of Chitosan powder steadily to the vinegar-water mix. Then add the avocado pit powder. Do this while blending at a low speed.
Add 5 ml of Glycerol and continue to blend the mix until a homogeneous solution is obtained.
Place mixture in mold or form. Leave the material drying in open air until it becomes solid. Demold it soon enough to avoid bending.
Bake in the oven at 90C (was 200F) for 2 hours or until completely solid and dry.
