Be polite, I’d usually address them as sir muffin or lady muff, depending on the situation.

Shake and bake, baby.

Why don’t people finish off purging BHO in flasks? It seems like a rotovap could easily remove the trace butane without touching the terps and much more quickly
Show me Rotovap slab.
Those that haz muffins are not after diamonds or pourable terps.

See:
Oven vac temp and time for shatter
And maybe
Adding N2 in ovens to prevent muffining?
Or
Nitrogen Backfill on your Vac Oven to prevent Muffining
@WorkingOnIt; where have you sought the muffin man?

I’m thinking that if it’s purged low temp it won’t pour out of the flask very well. 35C and it’s probably pourable enough but it might butter up and not stay shatter
You want to have as little transfer as possible from your collection to maximum efficiency and yeild

To much agitation in the roto

Let your slabs sit at your oven temp for about an hour before pulling vac & you wont have such a big muffin

Literally what they said
Let the heat evaporate some solvent so you are not evaporating lots of solvent while purging
An hour or two before pulling vac works the best!
And as willbilly said about the roto thats too much agitation, I hate slabs but when I do make them I pour wet and not fuck with it at all and let the heat purge some of the solvent before pulling vac
If it muffins a bit, simply release the vac and it will flatten and vac again
If you’re too impatient to wait for the muff to get warm, and would rather dive straight into the muff, you can pull on the muff just a lil bit to get her started.
Only pull partial vac on the muff and wait for the muff to fall like a soufflé. Just remember that patience is a virtue when it comes to muffs.

I’m old school but I don’t have a vacuum oven I just have like bvv vacuum bucket thing and I’m for a full month and I’ll fill the entire 12 x 12 and then cool it off a bit and then break it down into powder I’m not using this phone and sometimes it doesn’t understand what I’m saying so excuse the dumb s*** that makes no sense I’m learning and it shouldn’t take too long I’ve never used phones for this s***
That’s cotton candy Tech

I’m not sure you’ll successful make shatter with a rotovape. When I read “muffins”, I read that the OP is trying to make shatter.
Please correct me if I’m wrong.

To respond to OP, let the slabs sit at temperature (90-105) for at least 2 hours prior to vacuuming.
“Muffining” is a result of viscosity, and probably large amounts of remaining solvent. Baking before vacuuming, and you remove solvent while reducing the viscosity of room temperature unpurged resin.

Wait, so sticking the top of the muffin to the top and sides of the oven is NOT the preferred method?

It does maximize the whole “thin film vacuum” methodology, but collection is rough.

I muffin till just below the downspout thingy so like 10 in tall fully muffin to the walls
When it becomes purged Bho in the flask won’t it be difficult to removed with out heat which decarbs the cannabinoids and evaporates the terpenes?
And most rotary Evaps aren’t C1D1 so maybe people are avoiding Jerry lee Lewis and his great ball flasks of fire.
