It’s different than that though. When you see it you’ll be like 
.
Actually, remember that old picture I sent you that I thought was a bunch of fats filling up my crc above the media when I was telling you how little I was using. All that is the precipitate in the system that I am talking about.
We’ll then, now I’m wondering why I have not seen this yet. I use the same gas as you guys and not every run is crc or even then the same media stack
I have no idea why you or some other people don’t see it. Some people can’t run their falling films because they clog the tube in shell with thca rapidly dropping out in their tubes
I can see how a tube and shell would push the butane into its vapor phase faster causing to it drop out thca in the tubes. I see it with the .22 filters. When it’s isolate and butane only, there is no sauce layer to keep the thca in liquid form when the butane evaporates so that combined with the agitation from falling down a tube, it will crash out thca. That would of course be high thca yielding material but not an impurity still.
Ima have to poke around and see others who are going through this for myself
It’s definitely in the iso and propane, its been very noticeable lately in the final honey pot. Will crash and clog my pour spout if I don’t pay attention and keep swapping heat on and off
That happens a bit here and there too. I have a couple ways to clear it but it’s annoying
I just hook my injection line and blast it out back into the honey pot, not much of a clog will hold back 70-100 psi.
God I love that. Can’t believe I didn’t think of that ever. Blasted myself with clogs a couple times……
Not pouring? Open it up
Poof
Oil everywhere
Thats exactly what led to the fuck it why not moment, before it was try and bore it out and close valve before it got crazy. Quick connect and bam
two dudes and a spoon after a 12 hour workday is about the worst yet
Come check it out up at my lab. I’ll show you an unagitated wet pour completely sugar out in 30 minutes haha
Hey dude. Could you please DM me. It’s saying your profile is private and can’t find any of our older messages. Thanks man
Ok. Let’s pour in a tri clamp base and seal it. If it fast crashes that will prove it. If it’s in a jar then it’s just cold crashing due to the off gassing. I can bring a small one to test in the size of a jar
Do what its told or it gets the hose again…!
Ha ha ha. I do want to make it easier for everyone
I gotta insist, a jar crashing to full completion in 20 minutes is not normal. I couldn’t make it happen a year ago by simply not sealing my jars.
Any theory that involves methodology ignores the truth that we couldn’t do this in the recent past. A gun to my head, I don’t think any of us could recreate this fast crash a year ago.
Shit’s wild to watch. 30 minutes may even be stretching how quickly a true fast crash takes.
I’ve had a 1400g pyrex pan completely crash in under 10 minutes before before i was filtering my gas. This was not an overly wet pour either. I have purposely tried pouring way to wet and trying to recreate it but since i started filtering my gas its been much less aggressive.
By the time we finished capping our first jar (laaaaarge harvest) the first jar was 50% finished crashing.
Reactors that chill the vessel and agitate to crash out isolate have been around for quite some time now. They mimic what is happening in our jars essentially(bubbling for agitation/evap for cooling). I think we just got better at purifying or selectively pulling out target compounds better and growers/genetics too
I’ll say it again… I’ve experimented with strong CRC, a year ago, and I couldn’t crash a jar like this.
I don’t deny that cold crashing is a proven phenomena, I argue the parameters have changed significantly. A few years ago, I wouldn’t get precipitation without resorting to dry ice on a solvent rich mixture (feeling nostalgic for Only the Strong?)
Now, barely below room temperature, still incredibly solvent rich, we are experiencing fast crashes. The only difference between a fast crash run and a nonfast crash run was a days time, and 1.5 bulk tanks of 70/30 distilled.
If you think it’s the biomass, or the method… feel grateful. It’s not that, and seeing it in front of you is both a curse, and a blessing that makes it clear something else is going on here. Frankly, I’m grateful we haven’t joined the legions who are crashing out inside their collection vessel.
Definitely a contaminant that is altering how THCa behaves in a crystallizing system.
