Hey guys,
Haven't posted on here in a loonngg time but I thought I would see if I could get advice. Side note, this website is like praying for me, only done when your in the shit haha.
So I have been processing BHO on and off in a closed loop system for the last 2 years. The system in a standard 5 lb unit from bhogart with upgraded ball valve and butane recovery pump. I am not wild about the system but it's what iv got and I don't have funds at the moment for a new one. I also purge all oil in a AI 1.9 vac oven.
In the beginning I was only running old outdoor material so producing product that was darker and "pull n snap" consistency was not surprising to me. But recently I have had the opportunity to run some stellar indoor trim that was fairly fresh. Although the color came out good I still cannot get past the "pull n snap" consistency for the life of me and that is what my patients prefer. I know it is highly strain dependent but after running 3 strains with similar results I am getting discouraged.
Is there anything I could be doing to get to that stable glass I'm looking for? I know I could secondary dewax but without a cold trap I just end up burning out my pumps with the Buchner. Would a dedicated inline dewax column help? Temps? Haha anything?!
I appreciate the advice in advance guys!
