Decarbing oil

[macsnax]

I was looking on amazon and saw that exact one 24.95. There were cheaper ones but this one had the best reviews. I thought about rigging something up on my press but seemed like it would be too much trouble. I have a bunch of the filter bags for the press that i do not use and they seem like they would be perfect to put the infused buds into and the squeeze them with the potato ricer.

The mentality of online shopping ? I shop like that too. And ya rigging that on to a press sounds like way more trouble than 25 bones lol

This is a decent video, this guy seems to know his stuff. 4 different decarb methods, now this references shatter, but processes should align well. I personally use a hotplate with magnetic stirir, similar to the last method in this video below, 220F. thought I had a chart on terp preservation, but I guess i didnt. Ill add some other useful info

Boom, that's how you do it. Are you stirring while you decarb. I thought about it, but not sure how you watch the bubbles then.

I do not stir while decarbing..mostly evaping or mixing..

 

[macsnax]

Gotcha, just making sure I didn't read it wrong. Not many decaring like this but it works if you know how to watch the bubbles

 

[macsnax]

I have a short yt vid trying to show people this tech, it's under headstashgenetics

 

[Deebs]

Yup the bubbles tell all!

Here hope you don't mind me dropping it in here. That was right at the point they were slowing, bout time to come off the burner lol

Not at all! This place is everyone's I just like to share what I know, and learn from what you guys are doing...

 

[macsnax]

Me too man, if my experiences can help that's what it's about

Just another good reference for decarb... I dont think most here will need it, but for those who do, and are interested..here you go..

The researchers found that at 212°F it takes 3 hours for complete decarboxylation to occur, at 208°F degrees it takes 4 hours, at 320°F degrees it takes 10 minutes, and at temperatures above 392°F it takes seconds.

Decarbing in seconds is a pretty small window lol. How brave is you ?

Not that brave when it comes to my meds. I am a firm believer that patience is a virtue!

@Gweedo's Growroom there's also the Ardent and the Butter Brewer that decarb. I'm actually thinking about buying the butter brewer. The method I listed above can be a touchy process. You can't get sidetracked or start messing with something while you're doing it, works great if done right though lol.

I'm using an instant pot for decarbing buds.

I bought the agg infuser with decarb function. Had it for a few weeks and haven't even gotten around to trying it lol. I tried oil in an instant pot once, work good for buds?

 

[Deebs]

Id like to know more about this for buds also recently acquired an instant pot, and recall someone decarbing in jars?

Ya idk, but oil straight into the bottom was a fail lol. That was some time back too, didn't know as much about the process. I'll def post my results with this machine, hopefully soon.
