I just found some of the ptfe oil slick sheet that i saw in your picture i may get a roll and try it both ways. See a picture where the guy made almost like a box to the widest point of his chamber (square) and sat in his pyrex then sprayed into that looked like bit less hassle But to be...

can’t see the tobacco industry losing everyone to vapour unfortunately , i still smoke myself but in the uk people hardly smoke weed without tobacco so just habit. also i just ordered Vac and extraction kit so i can at least give up tobacco and just dab . My girlfriend won’t smoke a spliff...

i just like the idea of extracting using butane as is relatively cheap and then using a very small amount of ethanol which has a huge duty added to it in the uk to winterise with. Obviously I’m under no disillusion to how dangerous butane can be but thats why I’m trying to research properly...

thanks for your input my original idea was solvent less with bubble bags freshly frozen material etc then dry out and make iso hash But after days of research i opted with the butane method followed up by winterising it and vacuum purging just looks to pretty to be true hehe. I will buy some...

Thanks for your replies, am just going to read your qwiso tek looks good :) What i meant is that if the temperature fluctuated once i pulled a vacuum that i would increase or decrease the pressure inside the chamber and l would lose my vac faster or am i just over thinking things now

looks good tho bet does job :) if i had all that lying around i would consider doing the same .

looks pretty much what I’m getting except the heat source and chamber is different , looking at your i not sure this pad will cut it but it does say it accurate within a degree and is for vac chambers so i hope it works lol or it jus a wasted 80£ If winterising into the flask can i poor that...

Die head that looks lovely bro :) Thanks for your imput gonna have some fun next weekend! i wouldn’t say no to that leaf stuck in there lmao AmberEvil - I meant that I’m going to be purging in a chamber with one of those pads that sticks to the bottom and i dont know how long it going to take...

thanks for the tips AEvil, I have much to learn ill keep notes possibly start a thread or something to document my journey. I went with a 4cfm dual stage pump hopefully shud do the trick on ripping a vac its only a 3 gallon chamber. If the heat pads accurate and can keep a steady temp will i be...

ah i see, I’ve already ordered the funnel etc now so I’m going to try both this weekend and see which i prefer. One batch winterised, the other just purged in vac to sample hopefully this weekend . The time scales etc seem so varied from different stuff I’ve seen or read for purging but is...

I’m confused , when winterising am i not allowing the plant fats,waxes and other stuff I’ve heard people mention and seen in the filters , to freeze and separate from the alcohol solution as remains unfrozen so i can then filter them out. without them being part of the liquid and making it...

Thanks for the replies , Im just going to go for it and order everything , the pump i seen is similar to the one u linked but 2 stage one so hopefully will be quieter. I was under the impression i had to change the vacuum oil quite regularly to avoid messing up the pump like u said as cold trap...

thank you for the info about the filters I’ve seen the ones that they sell with the Waxy tubes the 50 micron ones but didn’t think would be fine enough seeings as coffee filters are between 5 and 20 micron i believe. Also looked into lab filters but they are confusing as hell. As my knowledge is...

just about to order my vac etc gone for a 3 gallon vac chamber 2 stage 4 cfm pump heat controlled heat pad for chamber 12 cans of 400ml newport tane 28g spray tube 1l of food grade iso (to spray clean everything at end and possibly winterise) 50m of parchment (the bleached one unfortunately)...

Thank you Micheal* (E2C lol sorry) that was one of the major confusions i had and i’m really appreciative for the info! Since Ethanol is very hard to obtain where i live , i may have to winterise and use iso unfortunately which is why i had looked into dewaxing by freezing the tane and...
