thats beautiful. Once I stop messing around with trying to figure out how to tune up junk trim Im going to get some good flower and try to do some of this. Again, that is beautiful!

Ah, this may be a good opportunity to cross benchmarks. I don't have enough experience to compare what the muffin should look like. Do you have a photo of what you would consider a good muffin for the QWET? I have a couple examples here and this is consistent with what I am seeing during my...

It partly depends on what I am making. Meaning that RSO has a much higher yield than if I'm making shatter. Within either RSO or Smokeables, large variance in yield occur due to quality of starting material and how the cannabis is washed. Yields have been from 3% to over 20%.

@thotfulspot I hope you are feeling better after the hospital. Running the machine dry wont tell you anything useful because its not designed to run in that manner. Extractcraft has been very good with customer service and addressing issues. I would suggest running the machine properly and...

I stopped using the app until its fixed. Sometimes shuts the machine off without knowing it when bluetooth reconnects after being away from the machine. I just use the button and the manual said that give a factory default of 105f and 120 minutes. Anyway, good luck, bed time for me!

Im pretty fascinated. My units are running around 105f on the highest stetting and doing about 3oz per hour, but when put on the lowest temp setting hovers around 100f and takes twice as long. I haven't seen my new units break 105f even one time unless it goes dry and even then it takes quite...

thanks, good to know. I just went through and cleaned up a bunch of cannabis induced writing errors in the blog...... Thanks again for the help!

Thanks for the help in getting my shatter skills to the next level. Here is the blog post I made which borrows from you quite a bit and also credits you with your contribution. Additionally, I included a link to this thread which I assume is ok with you and may bring more traffic. If you...

I am working with a normal single stage pump. I just got my buchner funnel setup yesterday and going to start working with the next couple of days. I appreciate your tips. Im going to keep messing around and come back when I have something decent to share. Thanks again

Couple questions if you don't mind. What vacuum pressure do you find most suitable, full vacuum? Have you tried it with higher vacuum and no additional heat?

The 'X' marks on the glass are just etched artistic impression. I have 6 of them and each one is different. My thought exactly on the trim and shake. Shake and trim has value, it just needs to be unlocked. Have definitely accomplished it with edibles, and getting really close on the...

Ok, I think I figured it out. photo of the simple glass vessel: http://imgur.com/Lm0KJp0 photo of vessel in the Source cup evaporating/purging: http://imgur.com/1ztWJ63 I know the earl looks pretty dark, which it is, but not green. My current project is to make good (or acceptable anyway)...

I owe you a big thank you. You got me thinking of different options for the final stages and you idea of glass paid off well for me. I have glass blowing friends and they made a cool flat bottom, beveled edge cup to fit inside the collector cup on the Source. I can reduce it down almost...

I must say I really don't understand your negative nature and propensity to cast shadows of uncertainty with statements like "what appears to be household silicone of unknown origin". If you were truly interested why don't you call the company and get the specs and go from there in an educated...

It is silly that I have to defend myself but I will because I have some extra time this morning. The reseller was a reseller and went out of of business, I think they relaunched under a new name selling vape pens and such. I'm not sure how my blog posts which are simply sharing of the...

That is quite aggressive and nasty but it's ok. A year ago I was very clueless when I took this on as a hobby. I was unsure of the health risks like what has been pointed out here on this thread. I am no chemesit nor a scientist but have access to many whom I constantly ply for information...

I get what you are saying and we agree on some things and differ on interpretation on others (which is fine). I am not writing to fight and bore people but wanted to share my thoughts here. First, I inquired about the vacuum level, they reported the vacuum runs between 15-18 kPa. This is...

Collecting the earl from the cup is tough when left in too long to harden. When the earl is thick but still workable I remove it quickly with a mini spatula and put it into a food safe silicone cupcake cup to finish. It this point the vast majority of ethanol is gone and the process time is...

Just realized I posted this on the wrong thread so apologies to those that have seen it: Update on my new units. Running solid between 101-104f for whole process. I ran it dry for extended period and took a while for heat to build up to 125 but it is not meant to run dry I suppose. Making some...
