im stoked about this, started last night, slowly got it to wax over night !! yaaa
I WOULD LOVE TO HEAR COMMENTS ABOUT MY PROCESS, AND OR TIPS! Im always trying to figure out the best way.. please feel free to judge me, criticize me, applaud me, etc, I WOULD JUST LOVE FEEDBACK FROM SOME OGs, or you smart NEWBIES
the idea: (this is how i did it with Green Crack trim, and came out with about 18grams of extract)
16inch Long tube, 1.5in ID
4-5 oz of quality trim in (SMOKEABLE)
4 cans o butane
2 evenly packed tubes
sprayed straight onto parchment, lining my dish (saves sooooo much time and mess! and product!!!) -recently discovered this.. (last night)
evapped on heat pad til most liquid was gone, then evapped in my veg area where the temps are in upper 70s
(finally smoked)
once at room temp, and stable, i was able to put my parchment straight into the vacuum chamber! (i made one out of a huge cookie jar, this jar is made just for this expansion process)
Purged full vac till i got my foamy stable puff ball.
transferred product to a smaller final jar,
from here on out I:
Melt down product from foamy ball to oil at 10-15 HG, and @ 140 deg (heat is in hot water bath always).
once it reaches liquid form, i turn off heat completely, then-
i vac and de vac the product over and over till no more expansion happens..
at this point, the product looks like amber glass, this is the stage i want it to be at before wax..
while at this stage, i purged at 26 HG for 4 hours @110 degrees..
after that, i bumped up the temp to 130, and purged at full vac (29 HG) for the remainder of the time, 4 more hours or so.
and i woke up to this waxy Green Crack
