Sludge in FECO

[UrbanHillbilly]

I am only just now realizing that the FECO I'm making has so much sludge. And believe it's due to the filter on my Pot by Noids unit has about a 150 micron mesh. The oil still works I suppose, but I'd like to get it a bit cleaner. Suggestions? Specifically, is there anything I can do about the oil I've already extracted?

FECO your gonna have all kinds of chlorophyll, lipids, waxes, cannanaboids, and terpenes (and possible sugars). Thats the whole point of a FECO extract is to have those goodies in the extract.


How are you going about making said FECO?

I use a little unit I bought out of the Netherlands called Pot by Noids. I was able to get a discount on a demo unit since I'm a medical patient. It practically automates making FECO, but only does a small batch at a time, about 20 grams which yields a couple of grams of FECO. It was perfect for personal use with my little grow tents. The challenge I have now is I just had a donation some poundage of good trim which should yield about 65-70% thc and I need to plow through processing this. Guess it's about time for another bottle of Everclear soon, lol.

Grab an alcohol distiller. They are about 100.00 or so. Mix biomass with ethanol, strain, dump into alcohol distiller, press button, viola, done. Evaped ethanol gets dripped out of the unit, the goodies stay inside. Open, scrape, do a final purge.

this dudes got the distillers listed under the video.

There are 2 types of distiller, alcohol and h20. Alcohol boils at a lower temp than h2o. So make sure your buying the Alcohol distiller and not the h2o version. The h2o version will work, but heats it too much.
