Yes. If your control doesn't require a neutral just wire the hots and ground.

The purple and green markets too. ;)

I never bothered freezing my butane. It comes out of the can cold enough. IME large tanks of r-600 might require some thawing during a run.

I suppose I'll have to play with their dump valve setup... perhaps they have the solvent vessel above the dump valve with a non restricted diameter plumbing to more evenly/rapidly flood a large diameter column?

Fadedawg, what do you think of the butterfly dump valve option? Isnt the upstream restriction making this rather pointless or am I missing something?

At that level your not on the poco radar.

I'm all about vac oven first, you'll really need it when doing large columns. Purging small batches on the cheap might float in kindergarten but closed loop big boys run multiple ovens per system.

To do large runs, how well does the process scale? Lets say a small test run of oil is about 7 ounces of dry nug resulting in over an ounce of purged extract. Normal runs are 5 pounds of dry nug resulting in about a pound of purged concentrate. How much thin film evap surface area (not going...

extraction experts has a fairly nice starter closed loop rig for what in closed loop terms is cheap. http://www.extractionexperts.com

You purged some solvent from your goo thus allowing it to harden. Key is, your reclaim from your rig, should be pretty well decarbed, is that hard at room temp?

Melting point? What viscosity is "melted"? In short, decarbing your THCA and CBDA will result in something that's less solid than "shatter" at 72 degrees Fahrenheit. Note that the reclaim in a rig from shatter dabs are thick honey consistency at 72f. It doesn't get brittle again at 72f once...

Is the meter perhaps only quantifying the portion of light hitting the probe and not the total lumens output?

They look burnt? Imo they're fine.

Imo, butane equals better terpene extraction coupled with lower temp / easier purge that also helps retain extracted terpenes.

The MSDS seems to overlook this detail. :\

Has anyone independently verified the effectiveness of the various available options using a recognized thermal imaging camera?

Im sorry. I imagined a notice that showed up stating one basically can't cuss someone out anymore. My freedom of speech means a great deal to me. I get that it's your forum, and therefore choose I coexist when it suits me. It suits me much less when I must temper my language such that those...

I liked the old RIU better, before it was offline and restored with new format and rules. I still pop into RIU a little here and there but I'm definitely not around as much as I used to be. I see a lot of posts I think about replying, but then I think why bother, and I don't reply. I suppose...

BHO is as good as the source materials. Many have a poor opinion of BHO due to having experienced extracts from material best classified as, to put it mildly, garbage. Sweet nectar from a whole sativa nug run will be a plesant up buzz.

I don't even trim anymore. I just destem and run the whole lot for shatter. That's just my agenda.
