YOC Dirty Diamond Tek - THCa isolation from Crude

It’s not to hot… My sugar oven is 100… badder 90… I recover at 108. My extracts are always super representative of the flower.

I just wanted to take this moment to say TIME is a much greater enemy to your terps than HEAT. TRAP your terps in your extract. If you smell terps every time you crack your sugar oven they are in the air not the extract. The faster you move the better your terps retention.

Don’t knock it till you tried it…and if turning gravity up to a 1000 doesn’t get the job done, there is always turning it up to 10,000…

5000 rpm or bust. That’s my minimum :sweat_smile:

Been there, done that…full speed is not the right place to start

You gotta ease her into it. Also may I suggest using plastic jars aor tubes.

You can, but stainless is my preference.

Should have full speed capabilities on these by end of day…

Using something much like @pdxcanna suggests above (below)

Just got to get the manufacturing off the inserts…

Hmm Interesting I’ll give it a try

Still not a good idea.

What is full speed?

I’d like to find a slip roller and spot weld some stainless mesh around the diameter as reinforcement

Stronger baskets seem to be the ideal route at this poinnt

4000rpm == 3220 rcf

2000rpm == 805 rcf

RPM / RCF conversion Says those numbers are consistent with ~180mm radius, which is right about where my tape measure puts it.

You know you can change the fuge to read out rcf instead of rpms :slight_smile:

Yes.

I used web to double check Carol’s work.

With link for those with less accommodating interfaces on their spiney-go-rounds (or those who were dubious and needed to see the math for themselves).

edit: …and the math for those who are not quite curious enough to go look, but might absorb it if it is right in from of them…now that I have a keyboard.

RCF = 1.12 x Radius x (rpm/1000)2

For those wondering, Carol is the name of the fuge that we’ve been doing most our spinning in.

And cyclops plays some more head tennis with a fish

Btw thx guy for saving an excelent thread from going…

I had a basket of 25 micron felt made for lanphan China fuge with a smaller top entry hole and reinforced top side
Until the sintered stainless model is finished
(16 weeks :cry:)so far so good

It can hold a max of 15 kg of crystals
More and the layer get s to thick to function properly and fast

Nice bag.

Hmmm… bag or rotor?!?

This style rotor is more appropriate, but if you’ve managed to build a bag that works I’d love a copy.

what is the ideal centrifuge to spin stainless jars this size?
