Why not with a slurry? Heat transfer is better and you can drain it out and reuse it during recovery on your solvent tank.

yeah well I fell prey to that user error
every time I use open jacket and liquid I have hard time putting the right amount liquidmā¦needs.to be like 1/2 way full bc dry will.keep it bubbled up
unless u wait till u have about 30lbs dry ice dissolved into 3gal denatured alcohol.
then itll stay cold and usually wont react to the dry ice bc itās that cold already

what you mean bubble it over the lidā¦usually that doesnt spill iutā¦ but few times Iāve overflowed the cooler also
My solvent tank is in a garbage can with slurry. It overflowed out of the garbage can lol

does the slurry help? it seems to just make the ice sublimate excessively. Im new and dont hae guages to measure the inlet and outlet of the coil with rice dry ice vs a slurry. You guys mustve done that though>
Whatās wrong with 6ā material columns?

nothing
I just said if ur gonna prefreeze on dry ice by time u load that massive column and as wide as it is your not gonna hold that frozen temp from the prefreeze. itll still be frozen just ull warm up faster bc wider
I noticed just going from 2 to 3inchā¦
in summer months a jacket required,ā¦the smaller the faster u can go to
I just suggest using jackets if using 6" and trying to maintain that cold temp

6ā columns donāt warm that much faster. I pull mine out at -80c from the dry ice and are completely frosted before injection 5 min later. Iāve noticed no difference between 3 and 6ā
I run 6ā and theyāre fully jacketed for recovery.
It all depends how fast you can work. I turn into a huge dick in that 5 min when the help is dragging ass and puttering aroundā¦ āmove your ass, our time is limitedā

yeah that what I was meaning about go fast
in the south though summer months no ac you better be really fast or ull get the clear swirls in it.
itās very lil fats not enough to notice or bother getting out imo
I never run a 6"
i just noticed going from 2" to 3" . 2" i could be slow take my time. I went 3" crc during summer and pulled the first fats I had ever seen in my life
so I figured the wider the harder itd be to keep -70f. but back then I did not have nitro and ability to push-70f solvent to begin w

Do a magnet test to be sure 304 and 316 should not be magnetized
