Large CO2 oil bust in Cali

180psi in 8 inch lines....hrm, this is 900-3000psi in 6" pressure vessels...

Is that right? Where do you find the specs? A 6" pressure vessel? So only a limited amount of space? These lines I talk about run up and down every floor, and have miles of pipe in some buildings. A LOT more volume.

My example was for a 6 story building. Imagine what skyscrapers have.

Edit: Also, why the huge swing in psi? 900-3000?

I'm talking about supercritical extractors. Check the Eden product page for specs...its all clearly laid out. 900psi for subcritical extraction. 2500psi for increased thc solubility in co2. 6" schedule 160 pipe with grayloc or regular ANSI 1500 flanges and you got yourself a pressure vessel..

If you want to give me 30k I'll build you a supercritical extractor. They're actually not hard to make once you know how. The only tough part is that co2 is not the future.

This wasnt the first one last year they busted an apeks 1500 5l about a quarter the size in forestville. They took the main chamber but not the machine we were just learning how to use it the main problem was getting the water, fats and waxes to seperate. Also the machine itself is loud as fuck sounds like a big steam piston going back and forth with a loud plastic clicking sound and the compressor is just as loud.

I want to know why someone who drops that much cash on a machine then would use pyrex dishes and double boilers to finish with. Sounded a little ghetto.

Or buy their own building so they dont have any neighbors to piss off with their steam train running next door.

I had been thinking of renting a commercial work space, but after seeing all this action, who needs the exposure. Still in this era of prohibition, one really doesn't want to keep this type of gear on a property with plants.
