Thanks bro
I always put my material in mason jars and then in the oven. It will reduce a lot of smell.
It a a lot more so prepare
Decarbing is a thermic reaction producing co2 gas capping your jars might make them pop
then it appears i have been lucky When you are evaporating your solution (for example ethanol) over heat, is the material not decarbing that moment as well?
according to rick simpson it does ,
however when making RSO i just followed his method then placed in oven @120c for 30 mins to ensure full decarboxylation etc.
Yes but extremely slow decarbing is done in the 120-140C range
to be precise from a decarboxylation chart i found it should be 122c for 27 mins
i might do my next decarb on mantle roguelab instead of oven , better temp control etc and its reday to SPD then once it cools .
nothing attached to BF etc 130c until no sign of co2
Where did you get your equipment? China?
yeah mate , couldnt find anything local
Everything from glass to pump to chiller? to hoses, to meters? What is your opinion on their quality?
complete setup mate , id say it looks good but not been tried yet , will know more on sunday .
hahahaha
Sunday i am out with my girlfriend, but i will definitly check on monday how your results are
What is your plan? Can you desribe in short the steps you are going to take?
plan is to filter and scrub my crude with ac and possibly diatomeacous earth to remove any chlorophyll.
reduce down then decarb
then test pump with a dry run ( condenser circulating ) cold trap full of ice and salt as ill have no dry ice .
then probably follow the SOP i found on best value and also follow tons of info ive printed off from this forum.
learning curve obviously so see how it unfolds .
ill have approx 200-250ml of crude to play with .
fingers crossed it goes well .
oh i had to purchase a smaller flask within the uk as the one from china was too big with buying a 5l setup.
thats a tip , buy the right size kit hahaha
lol i am aiming for 2 liter, but prices for turn key kits varies from 1300 to 2300 dollar, so dunno wich to take
bearing in mind a kilo will only produce roughly the same as i what im processing
how much do you process at any one time ??
whats your method for making the
RSO ? freeze bud then quick soak in cold IPA or ETOH , do you break the bud up or break down into smaller nugs
leave the bud or break down is what i meant to say ???
I only used trims. First decarbed them in mason jars. Then freezed them. Freezed Ipa. Combined them. Let it sit for a while (sometimes i did quick wash ethanol, sometimes i just did my own thing)
Then vapped away the IPA using an ‘alambiek’
Then the last 5 liter via rotovap (starting was 50 liter)
