Best oil viscosity for carts

I think I got one of the same batches as lenny. It tastes pretty good. I have no idea if its real or not?

There was a couple of low cost methods mentioned in one of our previous explorations…

And even a calibration ritual for the rotational version…

Thanks cyclopath for your info found most of the information I need from your posts. So 2-3 k cps is the viscosity of honey so maybe I should shoot for that with a 2mm cert.

To expand on Dr stanky’s comment why would someone waste good terps to sell $300 a kg disty doesn’t make sense to me.

300/kg?

Ya but getting off topic I just wanted a link to a cert manufacturer that had a recommendation for the ideal viscosity of oil .

Re-certify, manufactured certs are useless

Not sure what that means

I keep reading it like its ‘certify’ or ‘certain’ and now I have a syntax error headache

300 kg w terps . nice

Got the last batch from icbd . He sometimes blows out for less the $300. Great product.

He’s all about them certs.

$300/kg for disty with terps… sounds like some straight boof soup you’ve been buying

Sorry guys. I was reading my posts I ment to say carts like in cartridges not certs (injesting to much of my product)

Yep, you’re definitely looking in the “more viscous than honey” range.

For distillate, at room temp, a simple device with plunger and a spring or scale that you pushed into the surface might give you usable numbers.

Problem is, when you’re adjusting the viscosity, you’re not at rm temp, so you really need to understand the relationship between temp and viscosity for your specific distillate/diluent combo.

Seems like 70C and 20C might require different devices…

Found a rotary viscometer on eBay for $300 that should do the trick. I need a education on cartridges.The ones I was looking at have small openings (1.5-2mm) the ones being advertised on this forum are much larger (11-13mm). I’m thinking pg/vg vape juice instead of cbd oil. Thanks @cyclopath for the information

Outside temps play such a big factor. My first batch of carts 5+ years ago we tried a 90/10 on some old Cotton G5’s iirc. They ripped pretty awesome in the summer but you couldn’t get smoke at all in the winter.

The 11-13 is the width of the whole cart not the hole aperture.

Oops :speak_no_evil: that make since so by 90/10 do you mean 90% distillate 10% terpenes

Correct

But if he already has terp/distillate it should already he thin enough for 1.5-2mm holes.

I’ve use raw 93% thick ass disty in 1.2mm carts w/o issue. Zero cut, zero terps.
