Normally when i decarb my isolate will melt after 15minutes, start to bubble and stay light yellow. It will bubble in 40-60 minutes at 110*C before turning light brown/Amber dark, before finally becoming dark.
Today my batch is melting a bit faster and instantly turn dark/amber. I wonder why it turns color so quickly? Can i be a batch thing? Its melting good and bubbling as well, just wonder about how quickly it become darker than usually.
I only worked with 2 different batches prior.
it is probably just slightly lower concentration isolate. 99% vs 96%+ a powder can look white but still have color on melt. If it is a natural isolate I don’t think there is any real issue with it
Thank you! Appreciate your input here.
You’re night be right. The powder was also a bit more clumby consistency than usually, containing a bit of moist, idk but could be an expression for slightly more impure.
Edit: Hmm getting into the process here, this material bubbled decent in the beginning, but almost nothing compared to usually. The lack of bubbles concerns me a bit tbh..
Have you tried dropping some in a little ethanol and heating it to see if the color changes? You might have some shady components on your hands, or it might just be some lipids/waxes that are altering the typically observed behavior of your isolate
