it will work exactly the same as ISO, both solvents are alcohol. i would use ethanol if i could find it around me, until then im stuck with ISO :\

it will look the exact same as qwiso, the difference is in taste.

-1 hg is not a very strong vacuum, ideally you would want to be able to pull at least -15hgs of vacuum.

bigger units run slightly cooler, that is for certain. as to why this happens, my best guess is it requires more heat to maintain the temperature of the larger body. also due to the larger surface area, the heat isn't as concentrated as in a smaller piece, it must be distributed over a much...

Chei, disregard my post, sorry everyone, i mistook power 5x for a different brand of tane, i believe power 5x and 7x to be just fine, though i myself have never used it.

power 5x is garbage, do not use it, i have heard many a complaint from tokecity users regarding a smell and taste left behind in the product from said tane. i have purchased a gram of "economy oil" made by some dude from colorado who also makes it for dispensaries, and that shit was awful...

just took a good long whiff of my afzelia's core and i could not detect any smell of finish at all, just inhaled warm air from the core haha. i am confident that it will subside from your piece with regular usage, as with the silicone stems. i did notice the smell of the shellac finish when i...

for evaping qwiso, i always hot water bath, and then follow up with an oven purge if i really wanna make sure everything has evaped. it also seems to result in a slightly more stable oil. i dont think you should be worried about the lid of your jar, as long as its not soaking on it for longer...

whichever vessel you use for extraction, one will not produce a more quality oil over the other, unless you are using some janky plastic extractor that can leech harmful chemicals into your product. a stack is a lot more reasonable than 3-5, but really the only benefit you will get is being...

good luck affording one, and the necessary n-butane tanks to use it with, though you can reclaim your butane. if i was making mass amounts of oil for a dispensary i could see this being a feasible option, but for simply a connoisseur, its a little out of the ballpark.

sounds like you could use a break from sweet ole mary, if you are having motivation issues and your life is being affected negatively, a good few weeks or months off might just be the ticket. check out the botanicals thread for a plethora of different vaporizable herbs, also i believe abysmal...

just about anything already enjoyable is even more so when adding vaporizing to the equation IMO ;)

yeah definitely filter all the solids out of your alcohol mixture before evaping. If you still feel like residual alcohol is trapped in your qwiso, oven purge it for 5-15 minutes depending on batch size at around 170-190F, any traces of moisture/alcohol should be evaped by this.

i keep my oil in dishes, dont really notice much degradation as i always shoot for shatter/harder oils, and i always consume it within a week or two (i only do small runs)

the ice serves absolutely no purpose, that would only extend your purge process. speaking of qwiso though, im about to do a wash on butane ran nugs since i still dont have an extractor and i am all out of other buds, and im NOT about to smoke or vape butaned nuggets :P

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Methanol it says it is highly toxic when ingested, i dunno about inhaling, but i would probably opt to use ISO or dish out the cash for everclear instead.

yes the taste from iso is inevitable, i hear using ethanol produces better results taste-wise

i think what abysmal meant by disregarding performance, is that all UDs will perform more or less the same, though wood type and size will affect performance to a lesser extent. Choose one based on your personal taste, you will be much happier rather than trying to analyze the performance of...

im at the tender young age of 20 :)

you forgot Old City Diffusers, but yes there are still many viable options for log enthusiasts!
