Looking for experienced qwiso and qwet makers here. Has anyone ever tried purging in a still setup at low heat say 90-110? Will the condenser function at this temperature?

@Fightingteam - when I do with good starting material get a gram or so off 6 of flower. Have yet to do large batches with qwet only butane which is easy it just stresses me out due to the chance of 'splosions. And that's not a bad idea with the dry ice and the cooler. Question, is there any...

Just did one today like I had detailed with leftover shake and stems heated it at 220 for 15 minutes and threw it into the freezer for 20 then placed it into double coffee filters and poured everclear through it a few times and got an Amber liquid almost no green. Super easy and I understand...

Holy shit that things crazy looking! I'm gonna have to hit some research.

First off I'm using 190 proof neutral spirit not 151 lol and secondly my aim is for cannabinoids without the chlorophyll. Even though heat and light cause the chlorophyll to "deactivate" it is still there hence the green color. This is why I post the question I do.

Had anyone ever tried this: Decarbed your bud however you do (I use the oven on 240ish with the door cracked open). Then placed it back in the freezer and followed method for QWET but used as tincture instead of evaporating?

Nice wouldn't mind seeing a pic of just the still any and all ideas are appreciated before I go all out building a nice one. Just used 1/4" copper line coiled into ice bucket in the past. And oil less pump will have to keep that in mind.

Yeah that's more what I was thinking only my xicar holds a bit more fluid comes in a Homer proof rubberized coating (doh!) And is made to function even above 10000 ft elevation not small enough to fit in a case but small enough to fit in the pocket. P.s. idk where you are but if there are any...

Of course but theyre talking about a small vaporizer for flowers here: https://www.google.com/search

Nice!!∆ I like your style! And that's like a creme brulee torch? Might I ask is this contraption to be used on the go and could it be heated with something smaller like a xikar cigar lighter?

Gotcha still pretty cool

@Alan so the pump is pulling a negative pressure from the condenser head to bring the boiling point down I get that but is it pulling the vapor through the pump to the condenser or is the condenser just work adjacent to? @Accept cool I'll have to look into something like that for mine

As long as your heating your nail to red or almost red as a bench mark and counting back to dial in your hit temp it shouldn't matter what your heating it with taste wise it's not like your breathing the fuel in like on a pipe or bong. *Edit* Just looked up what you guys are talking about and...

Oh wow dude that's gangster I didn't even know that was a thing that's genius. And is the backflow prevention measure mentioned in that thread built into the food saver marinator or is it something you added onto the system?

I've seen the faucet aspirator mentioned in a few threads but still not sure how it's being used in this application or what kind to get there seem to be different ones with different purposes.

What did you use for your evap chamber there? Looks effective. I've made a still in the past and was going to use an old small pressure cooker and hook the condenser up to that and just put a heating pad for reptile or from pharmacy or w.e underneath it to provide heat. Not a bad idea with 2nd...

Actually did a second but it was green af so I set it aside and did a third "wash" with water per skunkpharm's suggestion and mixed those two together and purged separate. Got some gold residue and a bunch of reddish brown dark sap(oleoresin? According to skunkpharm's), added coconut oil and...

Know I'm probably gonna get a bunch of crap for this but go to home Depot or Lowe's they both carry it and for less than $50 you can get a bernzomatic torch head good for map gas or propane, a 4 ft hose and tank of gas. Map gas is $9, propane is $3 and gets hot enough to heat my time nail in 10...

Ok good info but that means evap is going to take days or even with a still set up.

That is a pretty nifty product, however for the minute price difference I'd rather have lab equipment that I can change the filter mesh size on and use for other extracts. However I did not know that existed and could def come in handy in a pinch And no not wrapped in coffee filters. Imagine...
