Never once in my discourse did I claim a solution. I DID claim that it was the best hypothesis, that connects the most dots, and I still believe that. Because it is.
You offer nothing but shit slinging and “it’s the gas”, you offer no basis to support your opinion/claim/hypothesis either. Because you don’t have one.
We are doing science here. No scientist is scared of a hypothesis, and any scientists knows even an incorrect hypothesis is more valuable than what you have contributed.
Peroxides are easy to create, all hold a double-o bond, and peroxide when added to butane gas will decompose exothermically into water and oxygen gas . The rate of decomposition is dependent on the temperature and concentration of the peroxide, as well as the presence of impurities and stabilizers, which our molecular sieves love to collect.
But again, I’m open for other better hypothesis if you have one, which I doubt.
Hey you guys I’m still 90% sure the culprit is isobutane. I only run isobutane and have done dozens of attempts at reX with very consistent results. If you want me to publish my findings, I can. I just need 1 million-bajillion dollars.
I used to exclusively extract with my own blend of butane propane and iso. And for a while even ran pure iso before I had figured out my blend. Back in 2017 my diamonds from a 60/30/10 Iso,Butane,Propane mix and never ever had the fast crash issue or medusa stones. The test results on the coa’s I used to get from cannagas back in 2020 always had small amounts of iso < .5% in the gas and never had issues until march 2021. So if I get ISO and it makes diamonds with no issue then it shows it is not the iso. But I believe it will still fast crash with iso coming from these suppliers because what ever is contaminating the butane in one of the filling processes is probably gonna do the same. At this point it might be a fun test and have nothing to lose
Do a wet jar with your 65deg sop and then do a thick nearly-muffining jar at 85-95 (whatever it takes to achieve a crystal clear solution that is fully dissolved.
I was talking to a real live chemist this morning before breakfast, like that’s his real job.
I told him about the Medusa gas, and while I doubt that something in such small amounts could cause it, he said that maybe if one could check the temp as it’s distilling (maybe do it super small) maybe either at the end or the beginning there would be a different temp distilling and could look at that temp area for the culprit
I figured parts per bajillionnnn probably wouldn’t fuck with shit, but it’s fucking with crystallization, for sure…
Shit there was something else but I forgot
