I used the thermos flask as the extractor. The old one was found from last century.
Extracted 30 minutes with no loss of butane.




This AA was extracted from sensimillia, neither ladyboy nor femseeder. The mix of amber and sticky resin.






Oil-cakes from 6 previous AA-extractions were cooked in oven to decarb and then were extracted.
The result had the same decarb effect as earlier.

Fun finding in the micro-shot of oil-cake few days after 30 minute butan extraction.
Resin micro bubbles near some of the remaining trichomes

The illustration to compare the extractions from fresh material above versus the same material but dried and crumbled.

I accidentally over exposed fresh flowers in a refrigerator at 8°C (47°F) pending extraction, so that they have lost the freshness and started to let the juice.

No way to freeze the flowers in this condition because juice on the surface will block trichomes when frozen.

Thus I had to return to the traditional technology of preparation of material for extraction.

The material was dried and gently crumbled by hands and scissors, without grinder.

Extracted 30 min in butane, followed by ethanol winterization. At first I was evaporating ethanol without heating.



No doubt a bouquet of aromas is much brighter, but accompanied by weak shades of ethanol and consistency of very sticky resin.

I tried to remove residual ethanol in a double boiler and observed the long and abundant separation bubbles and darkening the color. Nothing like this was seen with ambers.



Collection of the obtained resin was a real nightmare, I felt despair of flies caught in the spider web.




Resin gossamers stretch easily and live in the air flow, but an hour later may break like sugar candy.
It was too long for the evaporation of residual ethanol from the thin spider line,
probably something else from the resin was evaporated that caused change it to brittle, or it was the oxidation.
Finally I won this chaos into the ball in the freezer.



It was the same material I used in getting ambers but now it was over aged the prime time and thus extracted from dried and crumbled form.

To me now it looks like half-to-half mix of amber with dark decarbed resin. And for sure it was very much harder work vs. fresh.

Thanks for all your constant updates mate. I love seeing your extractions!!!

Resin semi-translucent halo appears after drying on coffee paper filter that was used to filtrate primary BHO/BHC.



These fragments of several filters I cut with scissors and washed them with ethanol.



In the ingot, it looks like black glass, to see the real color, I warmed up one end and pulled out the cobweb.
