Hey folks i have a 25g piece of BHO that i have been purging for far too long (15+ hours) in a vacuum chamber set in a bay marie....originally i kept the base of the chamber at 110f then up to 120f but the BHO does not get to a very liquid state and bubbles do not seem to collapse for a long time (unless pressure is released from chamber).
The problems is that the oil is still full of butane and sparks like crazy....i have tried to keep the temps low to keep the flavour but its not allowing the oil to soften and release the butane and i am wondering exactly how liquid the oil should be when purging and am i right in not letting it get above 120f....how hot can i let the oil get before i damage it?
Also a piece around the edge has turned to wax, why? and what can i do with it?
Thanks in advance.
Peace
