My last brain cell couldn’t keep up with their jargon.
I hear ya! I believe the major gist was asking “Why does this ionic molecule, THCacid, dissolve so easily in non-polar solvent like butane, and at such cold temperatures?” And “What if it’s not actually THCacid, but instead it only exists in the plant resin as the conjugate base, the THCcarboxyl-anion (THCa, sans H+)?”
They said something about salts of THCa, how are those produced?
I was thinking low speed agitation to increase crystal precipitation, and to better clean/tumble the settled crystals at the bottom.
I guess maybe if you had a large enough alkane Layer you could throw a low impedance sonicator on it and not mix the two layers but rather just rattle the alkane one around to spit out some crystals.
Just a stoned thought, no pun intended.
This is an in-line ultrasonic device I use for milling CBD and nucleating it. Or sometimes making emulsions.
Maybe there’s something that could work with the two concepts?
XD yay thca 
appreciate the note:
Yes, have you ever wondered why they like to run “sub critical”
with up to 35% EtOH… maybe the supercritical just doesn’t have
the butane “juice” aspect.
Oh a theory about the “juice” !
beware the “jargon”: solubility enhancers

What you show in photo…? The aqueous phase seems to be a THCA-water-ethanol micelle…not water.
Your photo is more interesting than you think…
did this work
lava lamp tek. beautiful vid
Here is a single diamond growing unseeded on a soft surface made of water.
I thought it would have fallen by now but surface tension is pretty strong.
What a fatty lol
What’s your oleo:solvent ratio?
Do diamonds like that crackle and spit when you dab em?
Maybe! I have a 25mm banger coming. I’ll melt it and video.
Ratio is around 1.5:1 probably of heptane to THCa by mass
How far does that transducer probe extend into that tee?
Do u always add pentane to help evaporate the heptane solution?
Can’t see the video on multiple devices, and I’m jealous of those that can see
It looks like a planet bending time space
Pentane will evaporate fairly completely. The heptane is added in order to keep the solvent from 100% evaporating.
Use only heptane if the evaporation needed is minimal like in this case where I’m trying to crystallize slowly
