i'll go with it preserving more flavor. but i find it hard to believe it tests higher in thc..

the butane does a really nice job of bonding itself to the waxes.. i dont have the funds to have lab test results.. but i bet ya my everclear in freezer that gets to -10F does the job better than ultra cold butane. :fire:

i use a nail as my test :]
i gotta say, i dont think ive tested a good enough "single solvent de waxed" candidate either..

Heres the thing though and its similar when comparing activated/decarbed oils vs non.

If your oil is 60%thc and 30% terps and you dissolve it in alcohol to dewax not only do you pull out the 20% of waxes but you also probably lose a chunk of the terps. Same thing happens with decarbing. Take a hash thats 70% thc 30% terps and decarb it which makes it hot enough to evaporate a large amount of the terps. Test it after and you have an oil thats 85-95% THC/other canabinoids because youve evaporated all of the other things in it. And thats even with decarbing having about a 75% return give or take.

(all example % are not based on any true numbers i have had lab tested just simple % to explain)

And a true single solvent dewax involves blasting into a pyrex measuring cup (usually) then putting that into a dry ice filled cooler until it hits roughly -30 and then pouring through a buchner funnel with some sort of vacuum pulling it slowly through.

Just using cold butane or using a "subzero extractor" with a dry ice sleeve IS NOT DEWAXING!!! No matter how cold you get your product, no matter how cold your butane is, no matter how fast you blast through it. You may have fewer waxes in your end product but anyone claiming it is dewaxing is harming the single solvent/dewaxing name haha.

Just my 2 cents based on observations and my own experimentation.

Hello Crazy Hazy.

No worries at all my friend, metallic taste is only when I over heat the nail and accidentally clean the nail surface.

Not because of my extracts...

My concentrates are self made, and material sourced from folks I would trust my life with.
(gotta grow on temp shut down being on the middle of a double hip replacement)

I don't dab nor purchase obtain flower or anything from dispensaries.

I really appreciate the concern my friend,
Cheers.
~dabs
Edit: The metallic taste only occurs when the nail has been super-heated creating a clean surface and I don't wait for the nail to cool.

I payed 80$ for a very small Ti (HE)
And have been using it daily for two years and it tastes the same as the day I got it.

But CH is correct , metallic tastes are no good.
Edit #2:the soot I speak of is actually gray and not black
Had to clarify that....

BLACK is different, shiny black is also different... I don't have an explanation for these occurrences.
But a flat dull gray is A-okay.

good to hear, sucks when a batch ends up having an undesirable taste, never know buying from some of the dispensaries out there too, some have wax that sparks up like fireworks. and i know what you mean overheating titanium, the taste can be kind of weird, its all about low temp dabs imo, wish i had a d-nail but for now ill just keep carbing the dome.

I have an E-nail or D-nail (not really sure what the difference is).....
And I do love it, although I still use my traditional dome and nail set also.

The guy that makes the units made up a new nail design..

@budbro18
Thought you might be interested in the following also..

He is now wrapping the coils around the actual walls of the nail,I don't have one YET, but will post pics when it happens.

Any who .. It allows use of the nail at lower temps(technically just closer heat source.)
Flavor was better and the high seemed to last a bit longer.

2nd any who..
@crazyhazey
I love your new sig!

You mean one of these???



Im havin these made as we speak. Should have them in in a few days depending on if he shipped them yet or not. Theyre made for the 16mm coils which a majority of them are.

nice, wish i had the dough to afford them, or better yet keep up with my love of oil, can smoke like a gram in a sitting with no effort, shit gets real expensive lol. that nail sounds interesting, id just make sure the coil is the same material as the nail if possible.

and thanks, yours looks pretty awesome too.

I got to dab on an e nail a couple weeks ago. It was super dirty so the flavor was off, It was however awesome not to have to reheat the nail every 5 seconds since we were dabbing with like 6 people.

Heres the batch I finished the other day. Just under 2g. Took the first pic of the white powder on the blade ala QK.



This stuff ended up tasting AMAZING! It was a mix of C99, Blue Thai, and cheese material. You get the C99 on the inhale, and then the exhale you get blasted by the Blue thai. I love the way this thai tastes, its like nothing else I've ever smoked.

I've been reading through the thread on the DYI. Just havn't had the extra scratch to throw that way. Most of my extra $$ lately has been going to glass blowing.

Lol warmachine they are silly little janky things. I'd be embarrassed if I wasn't so new to it. Its been something I've wanted to try for many years. Only recently have I found someone I can get a chance to learn from a bit, and get a chance to use a torch some.

Does anyone test their oil/shatter/budder etc. on here? I see a lot of product and no lab sheets proving it's clean medicine... Just curious.

Most of us dont have access to labs to do the testing. If we did we would. I would at least. But anyone vac'n 95f or higher for longer than 12-24 hours is probably well below 1000ppm depending on their chamber/pump configuration.
