It looks like this before decarb
After decarb I’d like it to go straight into carts:
Add some distillate, won’t crash. Maybe some terps

Do you guys know What is actually crashing out of the extract? Thca that hasn’t fully decarbed?

should be it unless ur full fats I’d guess they just clog

Please be careful creating a pressurized gas environment in a sealed container can be dangerous. Make sure you’ve got relief valves or something. I always want to remove the gasses produced by decarbing - I don’t ever want to keep it around.
I agree that its THCa that would crash out, but depending on your temperatures… I’ve seen plant sugars, fats, and waxes come out as well. It looks a little cloudy in that jar. If its HTE, what percentage of terps are you talking here? It looks a lot more viscous than the HTE stuff I’m used to working with.

Keeping the volitles around can create a more flavourful extract.
Done with proper equipment this is very safe

if one were to have thca isolate and hte seperate, would decarbing the thca isolate in an open container and readding the terp sauce be a good way to avoid these gasses.
I seen a video of someone decarbing both diamonds and sauce in a closed and it just looked like things were being cooked.
is a seperate decarb (of the thca) with an open container be a good way to preserve terpenes and relive gas
if it turns nice and clear after decarbing and doesnt make.dark swirls(while vaping it inside the cartridge…I think ur all good

HTFSE is a carbonated cured resin product.
HTFSE isn’t possible with Live Resin and certainly not CRC resin of any kind. Both of those extractions are impossible to carbonate and therefore are not HTFSE.
I think the product you are describing you want to cart is ‘Live Resin Terps/sauce’?
I’m not hip to all of the naming jargon. The oil is simply BHO from dried cured larf and trim with a light CRC scrub. I will then take that BHO and decarb it under pressure to retain the terpenes.

Thanks for the heads up but I prefer to decarb under pressure for a product like this to retain as much terps as possible. I might even do it with a nitrogen blanket gas.

technically this stands for High Terpene Full Spectrum Extract which was term coined right after sugar came out
which I always understood as an extract high in terpenes more liquid less sugar and was actually what the plant produces(not.splitting the terps from.sugar) not altered and taking all the clean active goodies(full spectrum, sugar plus terps and others)
at same time.another phrase was coined for extracts w less terps HCFSE high cannabinoids full spectrum extract, which was same thing just the plant had less terps per thca and others. would be more dry sugar and exactly what plant gives not splitting anything
which I can successfully decarb and vape both those things in cart. anytime u can pour the terps off to add back after decarb then do it

Works great on the gen 2 ceramic carts. gen 1 leaks bad
Lol frfr
Please use a centrifuge filter. Those terps will thank you!!!

certain strains that create enough to spin some.off I see doin this. but some of us have small ass runs . and if not live or.just super terpy you tend to get an all sugared out product in my world
so if we tryin to make live cart we just trying to keep the terps that are in the sugar to begin w and usually pretty dry
Too much manpower for this product I’m experimenting with.
That’s disheartening. What did your extract look like that you were using in gen 1’s? I’m guessing if the viscosity is too low it could leak.
