Question for you guys. Me and a friend just made a batch in the AI .9 vac oven and it came out looking like frosted flakes? I was going for shatter, so i had the temp set at 110 and purging for 24 hours. Maybe i agitated it too much while scraping from the pirex to the parchment? Or i waited too long to put it in the chamber (about two hours)

Twitch: Not so much at my lower temps... 95-103 but using wire racks and the placement of helps.
thank you very much, what size is yours and how many racks do you use, and i was looking at getting 4 racks in the .9 should i just stay with the 2? your thoughts and opinions are appreciated

I'm going to do my first run of BHO this weekend can't wait! Thanks for all the tips over the year or so I've been reading your posts you guys really know how to play. I have several lbs of seeded BD and GSC that I plan on practicing on. I just ordered and received my pump and vac chamber. I plan on running into town this morning and picking up a few cases of vector then I'll be good to go. I do have one question for ya? How many 14" x1 1/2" tubes should I run into 1 Pyrex at a time? My vac chamber is only a 3 gallon and didn't want to put in to much! Thanks
 
So have been sooo busy. On top of working my butt off, my fiancee shattered her ankle so add a lot more to my plate! ;) A very VERY awesome forum member, who I will let reveal himself if he wants, got me a loan to allow me to buy another hands free stand and an Across International oven!!! Sooo stoked to say the least ;) Strains I am working with atm; 7/8 sour from Loud Seeds, Chocolope, Blackberry Kush, Blue Dream, Blue Diesel, Lavender, Romulan and several grower mixes but all my clients are starting to pull their depo and indoors and the full outdoor harvest is just around the corner ;) This year I am doing Cherry Pie (thanks to the grill and chill!!), GDP, Pineapple Thai and Blueberry and a couple Blackberry kush for headstash. I will definitely try to be on here more often to answer questions, post pics, etc!!!

I have the
Do you think it would be over kill to have 4 racks in the. 9
I have the .9 and i would think 4 would be too much. Even 3 would be pushing it. Then again i have the ceramic shelves that are a bit thicker than the stainless ones. I noticed a 3-4 degree difference between shelves. Not sure if it will make a big difference, but im not pleased

No vacuuming to long give you crumble. Thanks for the info. I am not fond of the the idea that the temps vary, that is the reason I want to ditch my set up, oon my last 2 batches I caught it spiking the temp of the oil to 120...
