    100% Decarb With The NOVA

    Glad you got it dialed in. Thanx for the feedback. I’ve recently been forgoing the gelcap and MCT oil. In a pinch one day, I just licked my finger and dipped into the ground powder (best to do this prior to picking your nose or scratching your ass) and licked it off. I’ve found it an even...

    100% Decarb With The NOVA

    Are you sure it’s a cannabis smell? Is it new? Many of us had stinky lids from the factory processing, supposedly. I still think it was an ingredient that was used in the makeup of the lid. Time did eventually take care of it. I soaked mine repeatedly in a weak dawn/water solution and ran it...

    You’re correct in skipping decarbing to avoid morphing CBD-A into CBD. I feel your pain concerning the minimum batch size required in the MBM2. Mine’s a rarely used bookend now. Wish they’d make a mini and Ardent would go jumbo.

    I’m confused over the dosage ratio they’re noting. Is the mg/kg referencing mg of CBD per kg of body weight or what. If that’s the case, this would represent a dosage that would be absurd for human consumption. Am I looking at this wrong?

    100% Decarb With The NOVA

    Thanx for sharing, MonkeyTime. I don’t have one of the sleeves and may be all wet with my thesis. It appears the sleeve fits pretty snugly into the aluminum cup. With the heating elements and heat sensors embedded in the walls and/or bottom of the unit, it just seems that the silicone would...

    100% Decarb With The NOVA

    Lou has given good advice. Agree 100%! Just curious, did you purchase the silicone sleeve they’re hawking? If you did, DON’T use it. In spite of the bullshit they’re pushing, this sleeve is a game changer. I’m convinced it can radically change the decarb process. Silicone has a low thermal...

    100% Decarb With The NOVA

    Sorry to hear of your bad experience. That sounds very similar to my attempts at infusing oil using my magic butter machine. I rendered more good pot useless with this machine than I care to admit! Many have good results but I was snake bit for some reason. My MBMII is now a good bookend. I’ve...

    If stealth is of importance use a sealed mason jar. Before I bought my ardent I used this method with good results: Place an open jar in the oven and preheat it to 250. When it reaches the set temp, place your readied herb in the jar as quickly as possible, seal the jar and return it to the...

    Volume is a real problem for me with the real MBM2. it requires a minimum of 2 cups of whatever for it to activate. Mines a couple of years old and I don’t think it has a decarb function so I can’t help you there.

    If You’re Using True Terpenes Viscosity......

    While I’ve never used their Viscosity, I have been an ardent consumer of their isolates and blends for nearly two years. I’ve got a cabinet full of this $hit, several hundred $ expenditure. With few exceptions I’ve enjoyed positive results and often recommended them. With the new revelations, as...

    If You’re Using True Terpenes Viscosity......

    STOP!! There’s been an ongoing probe of their product on a couple of other forums surrounding this product. After 5 months of investigation and numerous lab tests it seems Viscosity actually contains ZERO terpenes despite their early claims that it consisted of 100% terpenes. The primary...

    Magical Butter

    Essential, no. Advantageous, yes. I fall a bit short of recommending it simply because of the price. Just way too much for what it is. They also come up a little short in the support department in my opinion. That’s the bad. The good; it works! You can’t beat it for efficiency and simplicity...

    Magical Butter

    I’m convinced that the parameters for a good Decarb are a lot wider than most realize. I’ve just seen too many bonafide lab reports of good decarb results using vastly diversified times and temps. Additionally, there are far too many variables involved to absolutely aver that there is a single...

    Woe WOW! Disappointing. There’s been so many incidents of broken handles they’ve got to recognize it as a defect. It would seem that a proper response by a reputable company would be to replace a known defective item at any time at no charge! Be careful. That handle will continue to crumble...

    Very common problem with early models. They replaced mine with no problems.

    Our research team was adding terpenes to tincture primarily. Presently, I’ve made several different formulations of the terpene isolates. Recently, I’ve been experimenting with full spectrum CBD with less than stellar results; primary objection being a lethargic overtone that was almost...

    T True Terpenes/Buy Terpenes is my choice. Several of my compadres and I formed a “research team”. Collectively we purchased samples of most all the strain mimicking formulas they had at that time and documented our results for a six month period. We tried to maintain an analytical approach...

    Thanx for sharing. In an effort to find a good relief for insomnia, I found larger doses of indica dominant strains caused unbearable depressive states throughout the night. My five year quest to find insomnia relief through many different forms of cannabis has ended in failure. On a more...

    Interesting observations. Thanx for sharing. I’ve recently started using a full spectrum cbd (.3% thc) infused MCT oil. I’m using it in capsule form in doses ranging from 15-50mg actual cbd. I’ve added a variety of terpene isolates with little modification in effects. It’s been very useful in...
