How is the consistency on that extract, is it able to be turned into shatter?
It was frozen material and thatās not what Iām trying to make with it. I will make one coming soon. That one will get whipped into something. Or sugar. Most likely itāll sugar.

Wondering if og cannabis just does this color remediation with silica and doesnāt dewax to make his clear shatter.
His stuff definitely sugars a lot. Itās not very āshatteryā I mean I canāt go check, he blocked me. Haha.
Iāll pour one into a slab coming soon. What pretty nifty, is it bleaches my fats, too. So my shatter could be clear.

Whatās your take on t5 or the summit clay that Iām using, with it being that cold. Would it be adsorbing any thca? Or are we getting around that by not using carbon. At least Iām not.
@Photon_noir whatās your take on this? Am I losing thca with these by not warming the solution then passing through?
@Dred_pirate
Both clays are bentonite based. Hot scrub is better for utilizing the absorptive properties, I donāt know if cold filtration would hold THCa more so than warm. T5 is more of a filter media where as Summits clay is more of a scrubbing clay. Lets consult the wizardā¦ @Photon_noir

Thatās at least a step in the right direction to rule out that. I didnāt think it was, just curious. I donāt think the silica would be either, hopefully.
Regardless of the brand that shape of sightglass isnāt that strong. Sightglasses inline with a column are subject to expansion and contraction With temp swings, this can lead to leaks. Hydraulic forces could break the sightglass if the column were to be isolated at 100% fill.
Personally iād develop an ulcer if that was on anything I had to use!

Those sight glasses are designed to handle propane and -99c fluctuations. They cost $750 each. They were designed to handle it.
I would run that system all day, half chub.
@710ST want to chime in for a sec

id like to know what makes them special as well.
Once I crash some clear diamond and sauce can I ride up there with you? Lulz

Their thickness, type of glass, gasket material. They make them in house and arenāt the ones that you are able to order. Hopefully @710ST can tell us. Or @stikkyrice if he knows from when he got the system. Or Iāll know in the near future when I ask Bizzy myself

They are certified by an engineer for 150 psi
I may be wrong but kylewranglesbeests on IG sells ones the 4" are 500 he says

@Cryo13 that seems quite low for a propane extractor given propane can be above that pressure at room temp.

Itās not the most optimal I agree. What was the end goal on that run and how did it turn out?
I see on bizzybeestbuilder on it he says 200psi but Iām thinking the engineer only approves it to 150,
Edit: bizzy extractors look to be asme certified and they seem to have a 150psi relief valve

I do not use pure propane, when and if i do add it to solvent mixtures.
The Bizzy sight glass is extremely solid I have used them for years in many different applications.

Extremely translucent. Iām setting up a run right now, actually. Iām not going to do any predewax scrub. Iām having a bunch of pvpp hang out in the chamber, then Iām going to try a different blend with less silicon for post polish.
