What does this mean lol
Well mr āi know your instagramā if you look slightly above the boof and below the english bull-terrier, you will see it. Its the tool that can destroy empires once paired with a middle aged mexican woman. If you donāt know what the butter knife is for, I donāt know what to tell you. Cheap, smooth, stainless steel, and in every house, the butter knife is the first piece of cart kit. Back in my day, if you didnāt have a butter knife in your pen op, Jewish fuccbois would float down from the grand labratory in the sky and throw their yeezys at you until you opened the silverware drawer. This is the problem with cart makers these days. Its too easy. You guys got your homogenizers and your continuous flow fillers, you think you have it all figured out. But when you go down range, youāll be shocked to know there are only 3 cart farmers and 1 CAT in the middle east, and Kahleed aint sharing his money maker with some scumbag infidel like you. The sheer gall of your statementā¦ āwhat does this meanā when you always are first to throw spoons at people. I was using butter knives to cart farm with @HolderOfTheBong before @Killa12345 ever thought of buying a gram of media. @MondoLabs has been using butter knives for 3 YEARS. Im utterly abhorred that you donāt know what the butter knives are for.

I have never posted/thrown a spoon lolā¦
Iām lost by this entire statement.
Have a good morning!

Lol it was an attempt at copypasta. I donāt have it anymore 
And its an election year too
We used the knives to mix (not proper) and fill carts (proper)

Homogenization is any of several processes used to make a mixture of two mutually non-soluble liquids the same throughout. This is achieved by turning one of the liquids into a state consisting of extremely small particles distributed uniformly throughout the other liquid.
I suggest you google some things. I went to school for chemistry. I have done my fair share of homogenization to achieve nano-particle emulsions. I understand this concept.
FYI Terpenes and cannabinoids are soluble in one another. To give you a fun comparison like you did me, a square is a rectangle but a rectangle is not a square. Now apply that to cannabinoids and terpenes!
Iāll leave this thread alone now.

Hey @QMA. When adding HTE to distillate what temps do you use? I did as normal with regular terps and got a burnt taste. Iām thinking to go all the way down to 60c. Thoughts?
They are indeed soluble, but that takes time. The homogenizer is vacuuming material from the bottom of your jar and using it to pressure wash the sides. With a homogenizer, you insta mix

And, its more than just the movement of the fluids due to the vortex created. the Rotor-stator head actually tears apart the molecule clusters and remixes them until they are so mixed they canāt recombine and separate to their constituent parts. I know some really smart Homogenizer specialists. I can get one to come over here and discuss but nothing they sell is in the $500 range. This is actual mechanical separation of globs and fine mixing into a homogeneous solution. this is chemistry. Chemistry requires tools.

My dude, this picture you painted in my head is beautiful. Do you aluminum foil the top to help seal in terps?
I really need to do some digging to see what you have suggested for homogenizers. Maybe Iāll get around to it today. I could probably convince my employer to buy anything under 5k, which would probably buy a bad ass homogenizer.

You never want to heat the hte directly. If you do decide to run at 60c, make sure you have constant heat on the sides and bottom of your jar at a much higher temp (80-90c) to push material from the sides during your longer mix.

Hot water bath? Put a probe in the water to keep your hot plate on the right temp.
Heatpads, the 7th most important cartridge tool. You should have pads that fit all your mixing vessels to keep them at temp if you have crazy amounts of batches

Hahaha I love it. So itās like a heating sleeve then? Or is the bottom heated by a hot plate?
@Sidco_Cat If your talking about the Cat1 people I for one would love to know the difference between the Cat1 X1000 and the Scilogex DS-160.
Also the difference in Homogenizerās Probeās.
50 ml max volume (ds160) vs 750ml max volume (cat1000)

Wow thats not even close to what both Mfgās claim their units will do. However that does provide me with enough information to make my decision. So if my Arkansas math is correct the DS-160 is 130 watt and does 50ml the cat1000 does 750ml so that puts that unit at or about 500 watts which falls right inline with the BVV500. I told the oldlady that I was going to spend 1200.00 on an Homogenizer and she hit the roof. Oh well I tried to spend less.
That math is wrong. The bvv is just a larger slot rotor. The wattage doesnāt determine the volume capacity, the size of the jet coming off the probe does. Id be surprised if the bvv homogenizer can do 400ml
there is a version of the ds-160 that can do 250ml, the ds-160/10. the model you are referring to is the ds-160/5 which is capped at 50. the 250 variant is more expensive though and IMO if you are spending 1k might as well just get the cat.
My assumption was that you were comparing these 2 units with the same probe. I now see the error in my thinking. However I am a hobbyist and I do not need anything real fancy plus on the Medical websites I have visited the Scilogex line of Homogenizer is a very popular.
They are homogenizing liquids at room tempurature. You are homogenizing a solid gel. I just dont understand why people cheap out on mixing. I just visited an operation that mixes 10 liters a week and they were using the wrong equipment. I asked them why they do not use the right equipment, same excuses.
Its very interesting that the ones with the loudest opinions on mixing are all people whom donāt own homogenizers. It kinda reminds me when weād talk about sex in middle school.
Yall aint fucking
