thanks for the info. i checked out the ending like you say and i guess in my experience maybe the dehydrator removes this unpleasant smell/taste that the last poster was referring to. my end product tastes and smells just like what i started with and i've used trim, shake and high quality buds...

hey guys, ive been using acetone for a long time and i just wanted to see if this is something those non-acetone people would smoke. i made some more the other day (i'm getting pretty good at this. this is my 5th try) and heres what i did. #1. dehydrate herbs in dehydrator for 2 hrs. (about 1...

My first run using hexane. 20 hr vac purge @ 150F. Hard but flexible at the same time. Melts immediately upon contact with any type of heat. Even warm hands can make it gooey. sort of snappy too.

Finally, after almost 20 hrs of vac purge testing diff temps the hexane hash oil is finally clean enough to dab. still can't post pics? not sure why. maybe cuz rollitup.org hates mozilla firefox? eh? anyway, here's some links to pics i took during and after...

Thanks qwizo! hopefully this'll be shatter soon.

thanks guys for sharing all of your critical experience and input using vacuum purge techniques. I just don't want anything to explode and I think you guys haven't had any bad experiences like that (based on your posts and following reasonable common sense). hopefully my vac purge will go well...

so it seems like 2 things are needed: #1) low consistent heat (100F for shatter) and... #2) multiple vacuum runs (like more than 5+) just one thing that concerns me though is this: would leaving my vacuum on for this long without releasing the pressure cause an explosion? thanks again guys.

Awesomeness!! hopefully this'll be my last question? here goes... Final Question (Maybe): Do you continuously vacuum during this half hour process? or just build up the pressure in the container and have the pressure held there without releasing any air for half an hour? Or do you get it to...

THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR YOUR INPUT. THIS HAS CLEARED ALOT OF POTENTIAL MISHAPS THAT I MAY HAVE ENCOUNTERED OTHERWISE. couple of questions tho? just want to make sure I do it right the first time. #1 Would I turn my vac motor off at this point? and should I release the pressure valve before...

Hi guys- I bought a 3CFM Single Stage pump with a Vacuum chamber and all but can't find any info on how to's, timing or exact procedures. After reading and googling for an hour to find some instructions I wasn't able to get any DETAILED instructions that sounded like they work. Some people say...

Hey, I dont normally log on and post but luckily i did today and saw your message. Sure, no problem I can definately give you some of the PEG400 if you'd like. Lemme know how much, maybe 2 pints worth? I'll try to find a mason jar or something clean to put it in. As for the Gas Chromatograph...

(hopefully i'm not breaking any rules by adding the following links.) i'm wondering if this would make the process easier: http://www.liquidizer.com/liquidizer-herbal-extractor.html Demonstration Video: http://www.liquidizer.com/video or http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AoC1EfFeOzM Easy to...

sweet advice guys. i may try this but though i might i will still be weary until i complete a run. honestly though the thought of making wax every 2 weeks makes me wonder if its just a matter of time before i miss a small detail and explode myself (i consider myself smart but stupid at the same...

hi guys, i'm still experimenting with solvents and concentrates and i know that butane is probably the king of all extraction methods being that it's affordable and easy to do. however, it's also easy to cause explosions or fire hazards as well when using butane. so my question is, if i...

awesome content on here since i last posted. good to see people are willing to share their solvent experiences esp ones i've never heard of or seen before (eg: limonene, n-pentane). to be on the safe side (or maybe more popular one) i think i'll use n-hexane next since it seems to be used in...
