Can anyone help clear something up for me??
just made a batch of shatter with 3 ounces of trim. Used very high-quality butane, hot water bath purge for 20 minutes, then 72+ hours vacuum purge with 80 to 90 Fahrenheit heat. The shatter turned out glass like, but had a horrible bitter taste which I associate with Chlorophyll. Could this be because someone dried and cured the cannabis too quickly? The trim came pretty chopped up but I don’t know how they trimmed it I’m assuming a drum roll trimmer as it waschopped up pretty finely. The process I’m doing has been verified multiple times with the research I’ve done to make sure I am not messing something up while extracting. Could me getting chlorophyll in my shatter be a result of either a ; they didn’t flush properly, or b ; they dried and cured too quickly?
And saying that , I have a bunch more trim from the same plant, that I want to make into shatter but I want to avoid pulling all the chlorophyll into my extract.
Could I dry the weed out more on a table for a few days or so to get more chlorophyll out? Not too sure if it’s maybe my process or the supply of weed coming in but I have seen many many videos of people using trim(and grinding their weed before) and still getting nice quality shatter.
I have 7 ounces of trim to make into shatter (from the plant that gave me crappy tasting shatter) but I wasn’t sure if drying and curing it more would help me? Any input would be awesome. Thanks roll it upFam!
