It looks like there is no heating element on the bottom, and that foam stuff is insulation. One temp sensor is at the bottom of the heating chamber, the other is between the heating element and the isolation. My guess on the foul smell is the glue/adhesive used.

Mine cap is also like yours. It just sits on top of the metal container. I don't think there is supposed to be a tight fit. I got results from decarboxylating with a 4oz mason jar inside the NOVA. Looks like it was able to decarboxylate all the THCa, but there was a little bit of CBDa...

Mine smells foul too. It was the first thing I noticed when I opened the box. The entire unit smells like it is off gassing. I am under 10 runs, but it still smells, but not as bad as when I first got it.

I got my test results back from a high CBD strain decarb. The strain is CBD Critical Mass. 12.5 grams were decarbed. Looks like about a 95% conversion rate for THC, and a 98% conversion rate for CBD. Before 5.4% Total THC 8.6% Total CBD Cannabinoids Mass (%) Mass (mg/g) THCa...

I doubt most of the delivery services in MA are paying taxes. Most of them are just "patients helping patients". Many of them come to Maine to buy from caregivers, then resell in MA. One got arrested not too long ago. Bostons Best Buds...

It turns out an 8 oz canning jar fits into the Nova/Lift. Top temp was around 113.25C. The entire cool down is not in the graph.

Maine allows out of state patients to buy from caregivers/dispensaries. I am a caregiver and sometimes I meet out of state patients in Kittery, Maine. Prices aren't too bad up here. $200-250 for an oz of high quality bud is possible.

Ardent has a blog post about decarb myths, that is where I saw it. http://www.ardentcannabis.com/education/decarboxylation-myths " Myth 1: Fresh and cured bud needs to be treated differently when it comes to decarboxylation. This myth takes a few different forms. Most commonly it comes as...

No need to rehydrate. It gets fully dried out during the decarb process. There was a bunch of condensation on the black lid when I did my last run in a 60F room. You are supposed to be able to decarb fresh bud. I may try that. I have a harvest coming soon.

First run the lid was off, second run it was on. It didn't seem to make much of a difference. The graph is from the second run. This is the first run with the lid off.

I was looking for decarb info and there is a lot out there in the form of patents. This is for plant matter, not concentrates. https://www.google.com/patents/US8846409 "Preferably, decarboxylation is carried out in a multi-step heating process in which the plant material is: i) heated to a...

I just ran a test in with the temp sensor in a little silicone oil barrel. It was 109C after 30 mins, 112 by 1 hr. Run time was 1hr and 40 mins. Green LED came on at 85C. This is the graph from the second run I did with the barrel, without letting the unit cool down very much. Top temp was...

Technically, the switch soldered on the board still works. If I press it, the unit will come on. There are also a couple of test pads by the switch. If I short those, the unit will power on. Lots of test pads on the Mighty board. There is a little plastic piece, and a little metal piece that...

My warranty expired, and my power button broke, so I did a tear down. The only tool needed is a T6 torx. I think each battery has temperature sensor, the two black wires. I tried to contact the manufacture of the batteries, but got no response. The micro controller is a ATMEGA645A.

I think it is pretty constant. The last graph was with almost nothing in the heating chamber. This was done with 12.5 grams in the heating chamber. 113.5C-117.25C was the range this time. Green LED came on at 75C. The strain is CBD Critical Mass. It is almost 2:1 CBD:THC ratio, so it will be...

Sure. Pretty sure the heater just stops. I think the cool down period is probably for safety reason.

I got one of the new units about a week ago. I put a thermocouple in to check the temperature it runs at. It took about 20 mins to get up to 118C, then stayed around 115C(between 113C and 118C) for 1 hour, then a 15-20 minute cool down before the green LED lit up. The cool down period isn't in...
