what were the results^? the temps I press (84 C) seem to allow about half the thc to pass through while slow pressing. I am thinking of using higher temps to get more thc in it. However, I think it is very strain dependent.

The results were very high THC in the solvent that passed through the filter and very low THC on the material that was trapped by the filter.

I am absolutely convinced that it is strain dependent. I have been struggling for that awesome golden rosin for 2 years since we started this turd hunt. All of a sudden, nothing different (except strain)and.... boom, golden, juicy rosin.

It is most definitely strain dependent.

I wonder if the bubble hash made from this strain would be light brown vs dark brown or black. I'll screen a little and see what the sift looks like. Sure wish I had easy access to dry ice.

Cool. I'm using this one. Looks like I got lucky and picked the correct style. LOL

Wow, no shit. Why the fuck are the 32mm filters 5x more expensive than larger sizes. Cocksuckers knew I bought a 32mm funnel. Life hates me. LOL

But, I will endeavor to persevere. I'll buy a 1-1/4" hole punch and make my own. LOL

I ASSume that since my funnel is a 32mm that I want to purchase 32mm filters.

Thanks

Cutting your own is actually a good idea for the smaller buchner. You could get 4x per 70mm (400 total) for $15 - https://www.amazon.com/Whatman-1001-...dp/B00394F982/

Whatman also sells sheets I can punch from.

What range of micron rating would I want. I imagine 100u to 20u.

WaterFarmFan · 03-08-2018, 06:09 PM

If you are using a solvent like alcohol, lower is better. #5 is 2.5 micron. #1 is 11 micron. #4 is 20 micron. 20 micron would be absolute maximum, but #1 seems to be the most commonly used lab filter. It is also common to filter with a higher micron first and then re-filter with lower micron (like 0.22um syringe filter) second.

Thanks bud. I am ordering some as we speak.

Here is a Time-Life history in Pictures of Black Tar Rosin.....

Starts out with an ugly black tar that no one wants and Mikell will make fun of you for it.......

Pic 2 is the black tar in 10ml of Everclear for a few days. As you can see, there is definitely some separation and when I shake it (pic 3) you can see the white poop floating around. I have no idea what that is. Looks like paper. Could it be parchment that came off with the rosin?

Pic 4 is the Buchner funnel setup in action.

When I was done, the funnel and the flask were really cold. Why?

Ringodoggie · 03-08-2018, 07:08 PM

Pics 5 and 6 are what was left in the filter and what's in the flask.

Pic 7 shows it spread out on Pyrex on the heating plate.

Ringodoggie · 03-08-2018, 07:11 PM

Last few pics show the result,dry on the Pyrex.

And........ when collected is still black tar that no one wants and Mikell will make fun of you for.

WTF!!!

Other than having fun with the new funnel, what, exactly, did I do here?

LMAO

Black tar to black tar.

Truth is, what's left behind in the filter looks better. LMAO

I could run THC tests on these but I'm not sure it's worth the bother.

I guess you can't make a silk purse out of a sow's ear.
