So is this Ardent really better than using an oven? I decarb in my airfryer like a true pauper. Seems to work fine.
I am not really convinced this ardent stuff is actually better. I read comments in this topic that the regular oven has stronger results. That does not sound very promising. But this girl that runs the Ardent company seems like a nice lady (she was in the troy and jerry show) so I don't want to trash it right away, especially if i id not try it yet, but I am not really to sure if it actually is any better so i look for real life experiences here.
If your happy with using your air fryer, why change?
Before getting my nova fx I had inconsistent results. No two batches seemed alike.
So for most of medibles I used my homemade feco that was decarbed in the making process. Feco in medibles works great, but I wanted more.
I wanted to know if I could do better by decarbing rosin, and I started making sift hash and wanted to decarb that and use it for medibles.
So I a sale I bought the nova fx. Since then I've used it frequently. I'm a caregiver/grower so it's just not for my household.
The only con I found is when I decarbed herb directly in the unit and then poured out the oil herb mix some warm oil ran down the unit and got under the bottom plastic.
The next time I used it it left a little oil on the base, and some odor.
I resolved it by putting it in our dishwasher. The hot dishwasher water got all the oil out.
Other than that it's worked fine, and I use it once or twice a week. Lately my loaded chocolate bars have been a big hit with my patients. In fact I made 6 chocolate bars today with decarbed, in the nova fx, sift hash.
