I purchased the ablaze 135g closed loop extraction system for doing a small amount of extractions, mainly trim and personal nug runs. Ive assembled it correctly. Should i coat the seals with anything? how can I test the pressure without running butane through it? any ideas are welcome. For those of you new to this, please put what you did next. Ide like to do a run in a few days so have been watching vids etc...I understand what to do and how it works, once its set up, looking for any tips I might be missing on getting going. thanks.


for reference, I also purchased a best vacs vaccum pump.

We use PTFE paste and yellow PTFE tape on the NPT threads, but no other coating is required.

We pressure test at 100 psi with air and then again at -29.9" Hg using vacuum.
