Hi,
I just did a 91 ISO cleaning of my grinder and poured it onto plate to evaporate.
What's best method to gather up this hard residue to vape?

It's a very small amount but I really want to try it.
Residue is very thin and very hard and very stuck to plate LOL.

I have it in freezer now to see if that helps. If I can just get it loose, I'm thinking to
swab it up into hemp fiber and vape that.

thanks

But I like it!
@MinnBobber Lots of surface area, and low sides, and you should be happy. Old microwave turntables are great. I've also got my wife on a quest for anything Pyrex when she is out yardsaling/thriftshoping.

To evap you can set your glass on @Ratchett amp, or anything warm. I sometimes float my pyrex in a larger container of hot water from a kettle. It takes very little time to watch it evap, and much more fun than watching paint dry. No smoking nearby tho...

One moment, was this just evaporated by being left to sit at room temp? If so, this really needs to be heat and/or vac purged to get the last bits of residual iso out of there!

Get a double boiler or heat mat apparatus or a vac chamber or vac oven and get purging my friend! Won't take long at all if it is a small amount, get it in as thin a film as possible on the pyrex! Then scrape with a razor whilst still warm :D

Do not dab residual ISO, that shit is bad news!

I've got a small pyrex that I used to clean my pieces with 91% ISO. I've let it evaporate over about a week or so, in a vented space. Now I have a dry film on the bottom, haven't touched it. I want to vape this, but if there is any risk to my lungs, I'll just skip it. You're suggesting a few options to purge. I'm not sure what a heat mat is, and I definitely don't know what a vac chamber is. But, if I used a heat mat, or double boiler, what would be the exact process, and how could I absolutely KNOW that all ISO is out. I was a NYC fireman for 25 years, at the 911 site, so I'm very sensitive about putting any more hazardous materials into my respiratory system. Stuff looks awesome, but is it worth it? Can I know for sure it's perfectly safe?

Definitely my friend, since you've done reclaim you don't need to worry about losing volatile terps so do a double boiler and purge it for a good couple of hours in as thin a film as possible. Fully decarb and heat it until there are no bubbles whatsoever. You can be confident you are rid of that iso then :)

Wow also good on you for the work you did as a fireman too bro! :D You'll have no trouble with purging so long as you just purge reclaim longer than any solvent could possibly supply. We only have to be careful about too much purge when we don't want to decarb or lose terps (basically only when running fresh nugs!).

Thank you, just a couple of questions.
Decarb? My pyrex is a small rectangle, how show i get it to fit in a round pot? Into a "thin film"?
Thanks Again!!!
