Hello I have the first time bho with dexsto dimethylether so gas extracted. I bought a vacuum pump with a chamber. I think however this pump is too weak. I left the wax for almost 2 days in the vacuum. Nevertheless I have solvents in my wax.
How do I get this completely herraus.

My pump is a: single stage 2.5cfm
5pa

Is this sufficient for cleaning or not?

Please to many tips. Thank you

Add some alcohol so it's liquid and the gas will bubble out, at least it will with butane, I saw a guy do it in a video. Didn't even have to use vacuum. Of course then you have to get rid of the alcohol though. Not much point trying to get a thick paste to bubble, though I guess it does work eventually.

What temperature are you keeping the concentrate and at what vacuum level?

Water will also get all gas out without introducing another solvent.. Mix in 30cc of plain de-ionzed water. Then allow it to dry

Could probably just spray some on. Or could put a larger amount and heat it so the oil melts. Then when you cool it in the fridge the oil hardens and you can pick it out of the water in chunks.

I was just reading the wiki page for dme. It's fairly water soluble, about 7%. So hot water should wash it out. Hopefully the extract will clump up so it's one chunk when cooled in the water.
