hey darb, it truly depends on a few factors that can only be answered by you.Hey Bob, do you feel the extractor was worth the price?
ditto, and thanks again, btw!
how's that rezblock treating ya?
will keep ya posted. i didn't even vac purge this as it was late and my fiancee was asleep plus it is the clean-up from trim so this is definitely worst case scenario. haven't noticed any acridity in the omi cart, however a liiiiittle bit with the nail. the second hit with a different wax on the same nail yields a little left over orange flavor. also it buddered easily.
ditto and ditto!
I went w/ the Stainless and yes you can run smaller batches. i have done so w/ flowers. hope that helps!Deluxe with brass fittings, or Super Deluxe w/Stainless Steel?
Also, is it possible to use less plant material and more steel wool (as per the tutorial vids, or other filter material) if you want to run a smaller batch (sorry if this was covered...I did read through the entire thread but I could have missed it)?

Looking forward to it...like QTS I have a bunch of once run sitting here waiting to be my first attempt (after a canned tane cleanse).hey jd! welcome to the club! i do use steel wool, i rinse it with iso first to clean it. i have also run smaller batches of flowers and this has worked perfectly. hope that helps!. let us know what you think. i love mine. can do many runs in a day and don't have to worry about the weather or the neighbors.
a bike pump, shrader valve (from tami guy) and a vac pump and you should have all you need. a freezer big enough to hold the entire unit (if you plan on running sub zero for flowers). LARGE POT for holding column and extract tank. a good plastic or teflon scraper. everclear, 99% iso, or d-limonene. for getting all that hard to reach stuff. vac chamber, parchment paper also useful.Looking forward to it...like QTS I have a bunch of once run sitting here waiting to be my first attempt (after a canned tane cleanse).
Just got some o-ring grease, is there any other little miscellaneous items I will need when this lil' beast arrives?
they don't make a smaller one, they do make a larger one, however. you can go on the cheap, and not get the additional case, laser temp gun, SS valves, etc. and keep it closer to a grand. but otherwise, it looks like ur holding a leaking bomb while peering over your shoulder for now.im jumping ahead and asking strait up (got 64 more messages to read), is there a half size to the 175? thats what id be interested in, is a tiny 1 oz unit for personal users" cut the price in half.... i could afford that man... see, ive got no place else ta go! so ive gotta rush out in the dark n do stuff on the patio, hoping i dont get "interrupted" so not chill!

Hey Bob, a friend has one of these and was wondering if you could help. When you say many runs in a day, are these back to back to back or is there time being spent refreezing everything? My friends extracts seem to end up with a lot of chlorophyll in them. Seeing everyone else's runs come out so nicely, the only thing I could attribute it too is not freezing the material first, maybe. His process seems to be the same as everyone else. It basically comes out similar to simpson oil. That's fine for his purposes but I want some good errl out of this thing! I was thinking of getting some activated charcoal but I don't understand why, if this thing is such a beast, why does it come out looking like 3rd or 4th wash QWISO?hey jd! welcome to the club! i do use steel wool, i rinse it with iso first to clean it. i have also run smaller batches of flowers and this has worked perfectly. hope that helps!. let us know what you think. i love mine. can do many runs in a day, and don't have to worry about the weather or the neighbors.
