How long does it take you guys to purge to shatter an ounce in the AI? Not extract, just purge.
About 8-12 hrs at 110-115 depending on slab thickness, strain, etc. I don't run the vac the whole time though , also don't forget to flip
Also gotta give AI customer services thumbs up, they are sending me a new controller to replace the old as well.
I have a couple AI 1.9's and still have a 5-7f difference between the back right and front left corners, even with marble shelves. Anybody have a solution for this? The hydrion sales rep told me their ovens heat from all 5 sides, can anybody attest to this?

anyone have experience with using glass as shelves?
I would guess that tempered glass would be necessary and make it a bit more expensive than you were hoping. I've been wondering why someone hasn't tried some nice steel plate, it should store higher btu's and give them up more readily?

So are you guys calibrating or auto tuning with the marble/steel shelves in?
I picked up some 13.5"x 15.5" aluminum cookie sheets that fit the AI 1.9 perfectly, but they are pretty thin.
After opening the side of the AI to put my kf25 fittings on I was a bit disappointed to see the 3/8 silicone tubing connecting everything inside, which makes the kf25 bellows pointless. Looking at the connections to the oven it looks like a simple 1/2 pipe thread, I'm going to try to mod out the AI maybe feed heat mat wires in somehow and seal them so I could get heat on each individual shelf. Fuck the warranty. Probably going to get a electric micron gauge to replace the torr gauge. Replace silicone tubing with stainless tubing so I can have a working cold trap which I could retrieve clean alcohol from without silicone degrading as we are all so well aware of. Put a ball valve and filter attachment for vac-release inlet.
All that said, I am having no problems making excellent shatter in these ovens.

I was thinking of having them cut me a few 13x15.5 tiles. The heat transfer rate of the material is 4.6 btu in / sq ft F
Waiting on the low PID controller, supposed to be here tomorrow, but it's still it New Jersey lol.
What vacuum pumps are you guys using with your ovens?
I considered silicone mats inside as well, but haven't tried to vacuum one and see what happens. Just a ni-chrome bare element will work in a vacuum for sure.
