Or the oven
Water bath (sous vide) seems like a good option
Live resin carts need a lot of work to get right.
The best way to do them is by
separating the thca and hte.
melt the thca in a microwave (30 seconds per ounce in a 1000w)
Dumping the hte back into the melted thca
Homogenizing with a cat 1000 for 45 seconds or less (get from 1 to the highest speed and back down)
Dumping into the filler and carting quick.
Can the g20 shaft really be used for 100ml or would I need a different shaft?
Also, how about small batches of candy? My “double batch” of hard candy is probably only 500ml, chocolates are probably 1000-2000ml
It will work for 100 ml in a high form beaker or test tube.
500ml of candy will work if the sugar is sufficiently heated
It sounds like you definitely want one, but maybe not a production unit- your needs could be served easily and economically with a cheaper model (cat is TAXED up too)
If you decarb THCa when you’ve melted down the diamonds to avoid nucleation, does it still apply as live resin cart?..

Not all of the thca has time to decarb. Its better to heat a larger amount of distillate up and sprinkle in thca and hte while the distillate is being mixed
I was thinking about smash them before decarb…
Then it need to be rebranded as half dead sauce carts…

People use this unit with good success I thought?
If it works decent… super affordable.
FWIW, I don’t use anything other than hand whisking or mixing for my gummies and chocolates at home. I just submitted for testing and I’m sitting at about a 1%RSD on the final product when tested for homogeneity.
I do use some emulsifying agents in my gummy mixture but in my chocolates I don’t because I’ve found that the distillate seems to incorporate into these mixtures pretty easily - but I do infuse the filled center and not the chocolate itself,
