    dewaxed ntane?

    One more suggestion @deadheadbill I found a mesh tea ball that fits right into the end of my thermos and locks in. I ripped the other half off and now I just use that as my filter. Since I do the winterization and ethanol evap to clear my butane I dont have to worry about a little bit of fine...

    dewaxed ntane?

    If I have it right he blasts into a very cold container to try and lower the solubility of butane and have the waxes drop out then filters that and purges it. Havent heard of this before.

    First time pen buyer looking to use oil/wax and herbs

    Seego vhit reload is 15 bucks and ego battery is 20 bucks. Thats basically the same as these systems. What you will find is the dry herb pens are less than adequate so get this cheaper version to find out. You will end up using the concentrate pen but not the herb. Instead look for a good herb...

    dewaxed ntane?

    Adbantages to the thermos method 1. Increasing yield by increasing soak time. 2. There is no blasting event. You just empty the frozen can into the frozen thermos. Very low pressure so little butane if any is released from the thermos until you want to. I feel this is much safer because I am not...

    Flavor profile is fantastic, especially the first vape hit. For me it is like breathing in the essence of that particular strain.

    Absolute??

    It will work but as @StickyShisha pointed out you will have more wax in the mix. This will foul the atomizer and reduce flavor. It is also more gunk for the lungs. I would winterize, you will see the coil stay clean longer and give better flavor in the end.

    Absolute??

    I use Ejmix from the liquidizer website. I take my ethanol winterized bho and push it through a 0.22um syringe filter onto silicone. Then after it is dry I put it in a shot glass that has a nice conical bottom and add a few drops of Ejmix. I heat the glass in a hot water bath. I add the minimum...

    In the beginning I was so enthused about the fresh taste that I didn't worry about how dark my abv became. I would even end up with some green left. Since then the intimacy with my space coffin has led me to try different things. Sometimes I try to see how dark my abv can get and I am pretty...

    I couldnt agree more. Flavor is so important! And I feel that when frinding a lot of volatiles are lost to the air that are kept in freshly hand ground herb. After the first two hits I use a short wooden skewer to stir the bowl and break it up further then use the skewer to sweep everything back...

    Yeah I feel that grinding makes the herb sit like one unit and have a tendency to lift up like a puck as you said. I like others have moved to the finger grind as it keeps larer air spaces in between the herb and the lifting does not occur. But if you look at my avatar a wound ss coil or kanthal...

    I have been using ejmix bho with lots of success. I just put a piece of herb in there and put some ejmix on that. then a few pieces on top. I mix things around after every hit and by the dark abv I know it is working great! (and by the effect!) None of the mix has made it down to the metal...

But you have done your due dilligence and tried your very best to see if it would fit your needs. Maybe they will have...

    Haven't had an issue with mine. Perfect out of the box. Just recommend getting battery and charger right away, makes it very convenient to switch batteries and keep vaping!

    Here is a link to Battery University. Great resource! Look at table 2. http://batteryuniversity.com/learn/article/how_to_prolong_lithium_based_batteries Also I disconnect the batteries from the charger after they are fully charged. I am not sure if this charger keeps trickling or not but it is...

    I switch mine out as soon as the previous one is fully charged. A shallow cycle will help them to last longer. @ElPic that is not normal and I would talk to Firefly on livechat. My button is very easy to press. Almost too easy.

    Difference between a vape pen and a portable vape like the solo?

    A firefly is a great at home or on the go personal vaporizer that uses convection to vape the herb. Really top quality unit that is usable on the go if you are not a vape hog.

    dewaxed ntane?

    The dry ice is going to lower the temperature of the ethanol to the point that the waxes precipitate from solution. The buchner funnel uses a filter disc to filter out those waxes and a vacuum to pull the ethanol through the filter disc. A #1 whatman filter is great for this. For me the easiest...
